. (a) The guardian or conservator may bring an action against
the other cotenants for partition of any property in which the ward
or conservatee has an undivided interest if the court has first made
an order authorizing the guardian or conservator to do so. The court
may make such an order ex parte on a petition filed by the guardian
or conservator.
(b) The guardian or conservator may consent and agree, without an
action, to a partition of the property and to the part to be set off
to the estate, and may execute deeds or conveyances to the owners of
the remaining interests of the parts to which they may be
respectively entitled, if the court has made an order under Article 5
(commencing with Section 2500) authorizing the guardian or
conservator to do so.
(c) If the ward or conservatee, or the guardian or conservator as
such, is made a defendant in a partition action, the guardian or
conservator may defend the action without authorization of the court.
