SECTION 922
Meeting of commissioners; report of actual partition; confirming or setting aside report
Real Property Actions & Proceedings (RPA) CHAPTER 81, ARTICLE 9
§ 922. Meeting of commissioners; report of actual partition;
confirming or setting aside report. 1. All the commissioners shall meet
together in the performance of any of their duties, but the acts of a
majority so met are valid. They shall make a full report of their
proceedings, under their hands, specifying therein the manner in which
they have discharged their trust, describing the property divided and
the share or interest in a share allotted to each party, with the
quantity, courses and distances or other particular description of each
share, and a description of the monuments; and specifying the items of
their charges. Their report shall be acknowledged or proved, and
certified, in like manner as a deed to be recorded, and shall be filed
in the office of the clerk.

2. The court shall confirm or set aside the report, and, if necessary,
may appoint new commissioners.

3. If the commissioners report that the property, or a particular lot,
tract or other portion thereof is so circumstanced that a partition
thereof cannot be made without great prejudice to the owners, the court
may render a supplemental interlocutory judgment reciting the facts and
directing that the property or the distinct parcel so circumstanced be
sold.
