The situation
The action for annulment of a general meeting of co-owners brought, without a common mandate, by a single joint owner, is, without there being any need to regularise the originating process, rendered admissible by the retroactive effect of the partition attributing to him the ownership, from the death of his predecessor, of the co-ownership units
