<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">A joint tenancy no longer exists, since either person can terminate the survivorship attribute of joint tenancy. A petition for partition alleges that the property is held as tenants in common
and seeks a judicial severance, or typically a court-ordered sale and division of proceeds. The presumption starts that each owner owns an equal share, but the court will have discretion to hear evidence of contrary intent and equitably divide the proceeds.
However, it is not a requirement that one owner owes reimbursement to the other, so often people who occupy exclusively will owe no rent to the other, and people who paid all the payments will not be given more than equal share.

<p class="MsoNormal">If property is held as joint tenants w/r of survivorship can one joint tenant file partition action to sell the property and in that event how does the crt determine percentage of ownership interests of each jt tenant if one of them owned
the property and created the jt tenancy and made all tax payments as well as improvements. Thanks for your input.<o:p></o:p></p>
