Joint tenants; tenants by entirety
Sec. 3. Where there is no sufficient evidence that two (2) joint
tenants or tenants by the entirety have died otherwise than
simultaneously the property so held shall be distributed one-half
(1/2) as if one (1) had survived and one-half (1/2) as if the other had
survived. If there are more than two (2) joint tenants and all of them
have so died the property thus distributed shall be in the proportion
that one (1) bears to the whole number of joint tenants.
(Formerly: Acts 1941, c.49, s.3.)
