1Opinion of the Court

BELSON, Associate Judge:

This case comes before us on cross-appeals from the trial court’s order granting partition and sale of real property owned jointly by Elmer H. Hairston and Mary W. Hairston prior to their divorce. For convenience, we will refer to Elmer H. Hairston as appellant and Mary W. Hairston as ap-pellee. Appellant asserts that the trial court erred in not awarding him a one-half interest in the property. Appellee contends that the trial court erred in ordering that the property be sold, instead of letting her purchase her former husband’s share. We affirm.
