La. Civ. Code art. 1309
Current with operative changes from the 2024 Third Special Legislative Session
It is not indispensable to be owner in common in order to be able to support the action of partition; possession alone, when it is lawful and proceeds from a just title, will support it.
Thus, usufructuaries of the same estate can institute among themselves the action of partition.
