Bennett v. Potter – Partition Action Case Study
In the legal case of Bennett v. Potter, 180 Cal. 736 (1919), the California Supreme Court was asked to decide whether a partition of real property was valid. The case involved a dispute between two siblings, Bennett and Potter, over the partition of a parcel of land that had been inherited from their father. The court found that the partition was invalid because it was not made in accordance with the law. Specifically, the court found that the partition was not made in accordance with the provisions of the California Civil Code, which required that the partition be made by a court-appointed referee. The court also found that the partition was not made in accordance with the provisions of the California Probate Code, which required that the partition be made by a court-appointed referee and that the partition be approved by the court.
