Talkov Law’s attorneys serving Los Angeles County are exceptionally experienced in the area of California partition actions. California partition actions provide a legal mechanism for co-owners of real property to divide the property among themselves. The partition statutes allow a co-owner to file a lawsuit in court to have the property divided, either physically or by sale. The court will then order the division of the property in a way that is fair and equitable to all parties. The partition statutes also provide that any proceeds from the sale of the property must be divided among the co-owners in proportion to their respective interests in the property.

Lent v. H.C. Morris Co. – Partition Action Case Study

In the legal case of Lent v. H.C. Morris Co., 25 Cal.App.2d 305 (1938), the issue of partition was at the center of the dispute. The plaintiff, Lent, owned a parcel of land that was divided into two parts. The defendant, H.C. Morris Co., owned the other part. Lent sought to have the land partitioned, which would have resulted in the two parts being divided into separate parcels. However, the defendant argued that the land was not suitable for partition because it was not of equal value and could not be divided without causing damage to either party. The court ultimately ruled in favor of the defendant, finding that the land was not suitable for partition and that the plaintiff was not entitled to a partition of the land.
