All costs related to a partition action shall be advanced by the plaintiff with such costs paid by all parties to the action proportionately to each party's respective interest. A cost created by a contest arising from the partition action shall be taxed against the losing contestant unless otherwise ordered by the court. If partition is in kind, costs shall be adjudged and may be collected as provided in section 651.16, subsection 5. If partition is by sale, the costs shall be paid from the proceeds and deducted from the shares of the parties against whom the costs are taxed. Such remedies for collecting costs shall be cumulative of other remedies.
