La. Civ. Code art. 1321

Current with changes from the 2024 Legislative Session
Section 1321 - Separate possession of one co-owner, partition before prescription

It follows from the provisions of the preceding article that the partition can be demanded, even though one of the heirs should have enjoyed some part of the estate separately, if there has been no act of partition, nor possession sufficient to acquire prescription.

Note error in English translation of French text; "estate" should be "effects of the succession."
