Title 20 - DECEDENTS, ESTATES AND FIDUCIARIES
Chapter 35 - Accounts and Distribution
3534 - Distribution in kind.

     § 3534.  Distribution in kind.
        The court, for cause shown, may order the estate to be
     distributed in kind to the parties in interest, including
     fiduciaries. In such case, when there are two or more
     distributees, distribution may be made of undivided interests in
     real or personal estate or the personal representative or a
     distributee may request the court to divide, partition and allot
     the property, or to direct the sale of the property. If such a
     request is made, the court, after such notice as it shall
     direct, shall fairly divide, partition and allot the property
     among the distributees in proportion to their respective
     interests, or the court may direct the personal representative
     to sell at a sale confined to the distributees, or at a private
     or public sale not so confined, any property which cannot be so
     divided, partitioned or allotted.
