The Supreme Court of Justice permitted the discussion of indivisible share proportions during the declaratory phase of a common property division action. The plaintiff sought to divide shared assets, while the defendant contested the specific allocation ratios among co-owners. The court ruled that determining these proportions is a valid and necessary preliminary issue before finalizing the division.
