coparcenary , auch: coparceny

The term coparcenary is not in use in the United States, joint heirship being considered as tenancy in common.

Coparcenary is the concept whereby two or more people inherit a title equally between them as a result of which none can inherit until all but one have renounced their right to the inheritance.

Not a single one of them seems to go home at night and read Sir William Blackstone - no references to "Of Estates in Severalty, Joint-Tenancy, Coparcenary and Common" here.
