What happens if one of the pre-emptors is absent before exercising their right of pre-emption and the ones present take the whole of the real property?
If one of the pre-emptors is absent before exercising their right of pre-emption and the ones present take the entire real property, the absent pre-emptor may still claim their share in the property from those who were present. The absent pre-emptor's share is calculated based on the assumption that the property can only be divided into two parts.
