partition of a succession

partition of a succession
The partition of a succession is the division of the effects of which the succession is composed, among all the co-heirs, according to their respective rights.
Partition is voluntary or judicial.
It is voluntary when it is made among all the co-heirs present and of age, and by their mutual consent. It is judicial when it is made by the authority of the court, and according to the formalities prescribed by law.
Every partition is either definitive or provisional.
Definitive partition is that which is made in a permanent and irrevocable manner.
Provisional partition is that which is made provisionally, either of certain things before the rest can be divided, or even of everything that is to be divided, when the parties are not in a situation to make an irrevocable partition
