Section 44-6-122 - Accounting between cotenants for unequal share of rents or profits; priority of claim over certain liens

If one tenant in common receives more than his share of the rents and profits, he shall be liable therefor as the agent or bailee of the other cotenant. The claim for such indebtedness shall be superior to liens held by third persons which have been placed on the interest of the cotenant by the tenant in possession who received the unequal share of the rents and profits.
