CIV PRO-TENANTS IN COMMON

Summary

The bill adds a new civil procedure that lets a person who inherited a share of land as a tenant in common claim exclusive ownership if they have lived on the land for seven years, paid all taxes, and meet income and notice criteria. It requires a two‑year pre‑action declaration, mailed and electronic notices, and newspaper publication, and lets other owners object. The change aims to clarify title for long‑standing occupants who inherited property without a will.
