Generally, courts divide the costs of partition among the parties in proportion to their ownership interests or in a different manner when necessary to ensure equitable distributions. (CCP § 874.040.)
Time considerations: The partition process can take several months or even longer, depending on the intricacy of the case and whether mediation or settlement is involved. It's important to be prepared for a potentially long process.
The California partition statutes explain that “partition as to…the property shall be as of right unless barred by a valid waiver.” “'Waiver' means the intentional relinquishment or abandonment of a known right.
Extra-Judicial Settlement (EJS) with Waiver of Rights An EJS is a legal document that heirs use to divide and distribute the estate of a deceased person when there is no will (intestate succession) and when the heirs are in agreement on the division.

Answer to a Partition Action Complaint in California An answer to a partition action is a pleading by the defendant in response to the plaintiff's complaint for partition. In the answer, defendants have an opportunity to address the allegations contained in the plaintiff's partition action complaint.
A partition action usually takes between six to nine months depending on the circumstances and the complexity of each case. The most significant factor is whether the partition is being handled by an attorney who practices only in partition law.
