Poppy, Maisie, Bill, Ben and Jade have been best friends since they started school. In January 2007, they decide to buy a house in the Medway towns. Poppy pays 50,000, Maisie pays 30,000, Bill pays 25,000, Ben who is only 17 pays 20,000 and Jade pays 40,000. The property is conveyed to them as joint Tenants.
Bill and Ben start a relationship and decide to put locks on their rooms and the smaller of the two receptions preventing the rest of the group from having access.
Poppy offers to sell her interest in the property to Maisie but before Maisie replies to Poppy, Jade in a fit of temper kills Poppy. Poppy had written a will and in the will she leaves all her property to Tony. Tony wishes to have the house sold.
Advise, Maisie, Bill, Ben, Jade and Tony on whether the house will be sold and if it is, how the proceeds will be divided. You must cite and use relevant legal authority to support your answer.

I was going to say thanks for sharing that interesting story with us and I was looking forward to finding out the ending, until I saw your demands at the end. And you don't even say please.
Perhaps the law isn't for you, virag.
This sounds like homework. If you would like help, it is customary to say so, and also to say please.
You must cite and use relevant legal authority to support your answer.

In that case there's no way I'm even going to think about answering. ****** off and read your textbook.
I know though that's because I actually did the work I was given during my law degree myself.

If you're planning on a legal career, believe me, this is not a good start.
what a **** - I suggest they get a job stacking shelves because if they cant be bothered to word a question right which is obviously part of an exam etc in which they are supposed to answer then the legal profession is not for them.
