2017 Louisiana Laws
Civil Code
CC 1309 - Partition between possessors in common.

Universal Citation: LA Civ Code 1309 (2017)

Art. 1309. Partition between possessors in common.

It is not indispensable to be owner in common in order to be able to support the action of partition; possession alone, when it is lawful and proceeds from a just title, will support it.

Thus, usufructuaries of the same estate can institute among themselves the action of partition.
