  1. Real Property Actions & Proceedings Law
  2. Article 9. Action For Partition

§ 922. Meeting of commissioners; report of actual partition;

confirming or setting aside report. 1. All the commissioners shall meet

together in the performance of any of their duties, but the acts of a

majority so met are valid. They shall make a full report of their

proceedings, under their hands, specifying therein the manner in which

they have discharged their trust, describing the property divided and

the share or interest in a share allotted to each party, with the

quantity, courses and distances or other particular description of each

share, and a description of the monuments; and specifying the items of

their charges. Their report shall be acknowledged or proved, and

certified, in like manner as a deed to be recorded, and shall be filed

in the office of the clerk.

2. The court shall confirm or set aside the report, and, if necessary,

may appoint new commissioners.

3. If the commissioners report that the property, or a particular lot,

tract or other portion thereof is so circumstanced that a partition

thereof cannot be made without great prejudice to the owners, the court

may render a supplemental interlocutory judgment reciting the facts and

directing that the property or the distinct parcel so circumstanced be

sold.
