Partition Referee Los Angeles: More Details Explained
All owners of real estate or real property have the legal right to divide and sell said property in order to protect and capitalize their interest. A partition action develops when one or more owners of the real or personal property want to either sell the property or sell their interest in the property, and there are other owners of the real estate or real property who do not want to sell.
A partition action is a lawsuit filed by one or more of the owners in order to get a court judgement to divide or sell the property. A judge is the sole individual who may appoint a partition referee to oversee the division and sale of the property.
In all cases, the right to a partition may be waived by a contractual agreement.
