    Hoppe v. Hoppe – Partition Action Case Study

    In the legal case of Hoppe v. Hoppe, 4 Cal.Unrep. 569 (1894), the issue was whether a partition of real property could be made between two co-owners. The plaintiff, Mrs. Hoppe, and the defendant, her husband, owned a piece of real property together. Mrs. Hoppe sought to partition the property, while her husband argued that the property could not be partitioned because it was held in joint tenancy. The court ultimately held that the property could not be partitioned because it was held in joint tenancy, and that the only way to divide the property was through a sale. This case highlights the difficulty of partitioning real property when it is held in joint tenancy, as the court found that the only way to divide the property was through a sale.
