Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Louisiana

I have undivided interest in 160 acres, co owner leases his share to a hunter without our knowledge, the hunter owns surrounding property and cuts off right of way and says no room for me on the property. Do i have any legal recourse against co owner with leasing our property to a person that takes my rights away.
