Tenants In Common Declared In Poised Property Case
Judge H M Edwards held that a husband and wife may hold property as tenants in common in a partition action. The Solb Kolb vs Brennan case centers on a 40 by 100 foot Remington Avenue lot once partly conveyed to Mrs Kolb and then to John Appert, leaving halves for both spouses. The court concluded the December 12 1874 estate was tenants in common, not an estate in entirety, making partition possible.
