partition by court
my sister is refusing to partition me
my 1/2 of farm property we both co-
own. in general cases do judges
make the party refusing to cooperate
pay these expensive legal fees or will
I or do we both? How do judges in
general lean? Thanks

Re: partition by court
If someone is being particularly uncooperative, judges often charge them with the fees, but there are no guarantees.
Re: partition by court
This question has been asked and answered in one form or another several times. There would be no "expensive legal fees" if it were not for your actions. You want the partition, therefore you are the one who is going to have to front all the fees and expenses and then hope that at final trial that the Judge decides your sister should pay part of them.
