The maakeh obligation for a jointly owned building

Hi,

We have been learning about Maakeh.

Partners who own a building in tandem are each obligated to make sure a maakeh is built.

(Code of Jewish Law Choshen Mishpat 427:3)

Have a great day,

Splitting a shared garden

Hi,

Partners who decide to separate their shares in a garden, such that each will now plant within a separate property, are obligated to contribute toward the establishment of fences between the areas.

However: If the local practice is not to have fences, then one party - or even the majority of the parties - cannot force the others to participate in establishing fences.

(Code of Jewish Law Choshen Mishpat 158:1; Sefer Me'irat Einayim 158:2)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
