- Are there ways to make my partition action less expensive? There are numerous ways to obtain a less expensive partition action in California. For example, having your documents organized can ensure you don’t have to pay your attorney to go through a disorganized mess to get the information they need.
- Can you lose interest in a jointly owned home by moving out? Generally, co-owners maintain their ownership interests regardless of whether they live at the property. However, in rare cases, leaving the property for many years without paying taxes or other expenses may allow the co-owners in possession to argue that they have adversely possessed the property. Generally, these co-ownership disputes do not get easier with time, so it is important to act promptly.
- How does a partition action work in California?
- What are the different types of partition in California? Almost all partition actions are partition by sale, though partition in-kind allows the property to be divided, while a partition by appraisal allows the purchase by one-co-owner at an appraised value.

Partition actions are common in the County of Los Angeles.
Los Angeles County was established in 1850 as one of the original 27 counties of California. The county was named after the city of Los Angeles, which was founded in 1781 by Spanish governor Felipe de Neve. The county has a long and rich history, beginning with the indigenous Tongva people who inhabited the area for thousands of years before the arrival of Europeans. In the late 18th century, the area was part of the Spanish Empire, and in 1821, it became part of Mexico. After the Mexican-American War, the area was ceded to the United States in 1848. In the late 19th century, the county experienced a population boom as people from all over the world moved to the area to take advantage of the mild climate and abundant natural resources. The 20th century saw the county become a major center of industry, entertainment, and culture. Los Angeles County is now the most populous county in the United States, with over 10 million residents. It is home to some of the world’s most iconic landmarks, including the Hollywood Sign, the Griffith Observatory, and the Walt Disney Concert Hall.

Partition Actions Under California Law
Walton v. Willis
In the legal case of Walton v. Willis, 1 U.S. 351 (1788), the issue was whether a partition of land could be made between two parties without the consent of the other. The case involved two brothers, Thomas and William Walton, who had inherited a tract of land from their father. Thomas wanted to divide the land between himself and William, but William refused to consent to the partition. The court ultimately held that a partition could not be made without the consent of both parties. This decision established the principle that a partition of land could not be made without the consent of all parties involved.
