Cohabitation
NORTH DAKOTA: McKechnie v. Berg, 667 N.W.2d 628 (N.D. 2003).
When the court divides property between unmarried persons, it does so under the law of partition, not the law of equitable distribution. Where unmarried cohabitants pooled their financial resources and purchased property which they themselves considered to be jointly owned, the court did not err by dividing that property equally between them.
