[Joint-proprietorship. Pernio Code.] 



The law regarding property which is held in com- 

 mon — land, and cultivation of all kinds and all fruit- 

 trees which go with the land. 



If any property so held in common be sold by 

 one of two joint-proprietors to a third person, though 

 the other joint-proprietor be willing to purchase it 

 on the same terms, such a sale is illegal. 



If there be a disagreement as to the nature of 

 the property sold (i.e., whether it is part of the joint- 

 property or not), or as to the price of it, the purchaser 

 must be put upon his oath. 



But if there be delay in making the claim (on 

 the part of a joiut-proprietor whose interests have 

 been prejudiced by the sale of some of the joint-pro- 

 perty by another joint-proprietor to a third person), 

 unless this be caused by ill-health, the law of joint- 

 proprietorship shall cease to apply. 



If one of two joint-proprietors is willing to sell 

 joint-property to a third person, and the other is un- 

 willing to do so, the latter must either take over the 

 whole of the joint-property or must relinquish his 

 interest in it to the other [at a valuation ?].
