§ 2625. Rights of parties; possession of estate; approval of partition; appeals

When the partition has been definitely approved, each of the interested parties shall be entitled to a certified copy of the final order of partition, which shall contain all of the requisites necessary for inscription in the Registry of Property; such documents declaring titles that may be recorded. When the final order is made, the heirs shall be placed in possession of the shares which have been respectively allotted to them; Provided, That where the heirs, being all of legal age, shall have informed the court that they are agreed as to the partition of the hereditary estate, §§ 2621-2624 of this title shall not be applicable, and such heirs shall immediately be placed in possession of the hereditary estate by the executor or administrator having the possession of the estate. Where there are one or more minor heirs, or heirs otherwise incapacitated, and the legal representatives of the same and of the heirs are agreed in respect to the partition of the hereditary estate, the provisions of §§ 2621-2624 of this title shall have no application: Provided, That all interested parties shall file with the court a statement of such partition of the hereditary estate as may have been made. The Court of First Instance shall approve such partition, making therein such legal modifications as the court may deem advisable; against such modifications as the court may make in said partition, any or all of the interested parties not in conformity therewith may take an appeal to the Supreme Court, and said appeal shall be prosecuted in accordance with the provisions of this title.
