Section 44-6-166 - Return of partitioners as judgment of court; conclusiveness; when second partition ordered; effect

If no objection to the return of the partitioners is filed by any of the parties or if, being filed, the jury on the trial finds a verdict against the party setting up such objections, the return of the partitioners shall be made the judgment of the court and shall be final and conclusive as to all the parties concerned who were notified of the application for partition and of the time of executing the writ as required by Code Sections 44-6-162 and 44-6-164, and a writ of possession shall issue accordingly. If objections to the return are filed and are sustained by the jury trying the case or if it appears to the court that there is injustice or inequality in the division made by the partitioners, the court shall award a new partition to be made in the presence of the parties concerned if they will appear, which second partition, when returned, shall be firm, good, and conclusive forever against all parties notified as provided in Code Sections 44-6-162 and 44-6-164.
