Abstract

This Act provides rules for legal proceedings regarding the partition of land and other properties held in possession by more than one person. The Supreme Court may order sale instead of partition of property if this would result more practical or beneficial to the parties involved. The Court may purchase parts of parties interested in sale and may allow other parties to bid at the sale at conditions set by the Court.
