La. Code Civ. Proc. art. 4627
Current with operative changes from the 2024 Third Special Legislative Session
The judgment ordering the public sale or private sale of the property to effect a partition, and the sale made in compliance therewith, has the same force and effect as to the absentee, his succession representative and heirs, as if he had been served personally with process and the judgment had been rendered against him personally. Thereafter, the absentee, his succession representative and heirs are precluded from asserting any right, title, or interest in the property partitioned.
