Case Notes
Read in pari materia, §668-1 and this section, relating to the partition of real property, vest the circuit court with equitable discretion in judicial sales of such property, to reopen bidding after public auction but before confirmation of the public auction bid, and the court's rejection of confirmation of the highest bid submitted at a public auction does not require a showing that inadequacy of the bid amounted to fraud. 104 H. 119, 85 P.3d 644 (2004).
