2006 Utah Code - 78-39-41 — Owelty.

     78-39-41.   Owelty.
     When it appears that a partition cannot be made equally among the parties according to their respective rights without prejudice to the rights and interests of some of them, and a partition is ordered, the courts may adjudge compensation to be made by one party to another on account of the inequality; but such compensation shall not be required to be made to others by owners unknown, nor by a minor, unless it appears that such minor has personal property sufficient for that purpose and that his interest will be promoted thereby. And in all cases the court has power to make compensatory adjustment among the parties according to the principles of equity.

No Change Since 1953
