<p class="MsoNormal"><a name="_GoBack"></a>Anyone aware of any case law here in the State of Washington or another community property state that addresses the situation of a deed that conveys to X and Y and husband and wife, and to Z, a single person, as tenants
in common. Case says there is presumption that the parties’ ownership interest is equal. My question is and what case law at least here in Washington hasn’t decided, is X&Y treated as one unit or two units? In other words, does X&Y own 50% or 66.7% of property
deeded in the fashion above under the initial presumption.<o:p></o:p></p>
