A petition to partition is a way for a couple that is breaking up to either partition assets in kind. When it comes to real estate, however, it is often impossible to split the property in two in an equitable manner, for a variety of reasons. In these situations, a petition can be used to force one partner to sell to the other or have the property sold, with the partners splitting the proceeds.
The amount of time a petition to partition land takes can vary wildly. Some of the factors include whether or not the matter is contested between the partners and timelines in court. From beginning to end, the entire process can take between a few months to a couple of years.
