Default Rights under Joint Tenancy????

In 1993 I purchased property in FL with another person. The deed lists us as
"unmarried adults as Joint Tenants" I moved out of state in 2000. He
remained on the property. He pays the mortgage. At this point what is my
legal interest in the property? Is it still 50-50? Am I able to sell my
interest in the property even if he does not want to sell his?

Default Re: Rights under Joint Tenancy????

- If two or more owners cannot agree on what to do with a piece of property they may petition the court and the court will order a sale or refinancing etc. so that the one or more may get out of the property obligation and/or the other(s) may keep it etc.--it is often done-- (This is true in some cases even for equitable owners that have paid various amounts etc., but for various reasons, may not be on title.)
