However, when it is impossible to divide in kind or in kind, if the value of the co-owned property might be significantly reduced if it is impossible to divide in kind or in kind, it may be made by ordering auction of the co-owned
(Article 269(2) of the Civil Act provides that the requirement of “undivided in kind” includes cases where it is physically impossible to divide the property, as well as cases where it is difficult or inappropriate to divide the property in kind in light of the nature, location, area, use status, value of use after the division, etc.
In addition, the phrase “where the value of the division is likely to be significantly reduced if it is divided in kind” includes cases where, even if a co-owner is a person, the value of the portion to be owned by himself/herself is likely to be significantly reduced compared to the value of the share before the division (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2013Da56297, Dec. 10, 2015).
In the instant case, comprehensively taking account of the following circumstances, comprehensively taking account of Gap evidence Nos. 1 through 12 and the purport of the entire pleadings as a result of appraiser D’s appraisal: (i) the instant land is divided in kind.
