real estate

I co-own a home with another person who has not made a mortgage payment nor lived at the residence in 3 years. Does this person still have legal rights to this property?

Re: real estate

yes. If there name is on the title, they are presumed to be an equitable owner. If you have no written agreements, a partition action would be required to establish each person's rights to the asset based on their contribution to the asset.
