Section 45a-637. (Formerly Sec. 45-57). - Guardians of estate of minors may make partition.

If any minor has an interest in any real property as a tenant in common with any other person, the guardian of the estate of the minor may, by an instrument in writing executed as deeds of land are executed, make partition of the real property with the other parties in interest. Such deed of partition described in this section shall not be valid until the approval of the court of probate having jurisdiction of the property of the minor is endorsed on it. The deed of partition and the approval of the court of probate shall be recorded in the land records of the town or towns where the land is situated.
