  ESTATE LAND COMPANY, AARON WIESE, AND KAMAL BANANI
                  (BANNAN), Appellants
                                        V.

                         ANTHONY WIESE, Appellee

                    On Appeal from the 151st District Court
                            Harris County, Texas
                      Trial Court Cause No. 2009-00136

                  MEMORANDUM OPINION

      In eleven issues, appellants, Estate Land Company, Aaron Wiese, and
Kamal Banani, complain the trial court lacked jurisdiction to sign a final judgment,
and that there is insufficient evidence to support the judgment. We affirm.

                                 I. BACKGROUND

      In 1999, Aaron Wiese (“Aaron”) and his brother, Anthony (“Tony”) Wiese,
purchased three properties in Houston, Texas: 812 Main Street; 110-114 Main
Street; and I-10 McKee-Chapman (“McKee-Chapman”).             In 2001, along with
Kamal Banani, they purchased 3302 Polk Street. The parties secured financing,
and the record reflects that both Aaron and Tony were equally responsible for the
entire amounts of the loans. Tony sued appellants in 2009 seeking partition of the
properties and reimbursement for contributions he had made to the properties. He
also requested injunctive relief regarding a lease on the property at 812 Main Street
(“Pearl Lease”).

       At the conclusion of a bench trial, the trial court signed a judgment, found
the properties were incapable of partition, and appointed a receiver to sell the
properties. The court ordered that proceeds from the sale would be split among the
parties as follows: 812 Main Street and McKee-Chapman split equally between
Aaron and Tony; 110-114 Main Street divided 50% to Tony, 43.71% to Aaron, and
6.29% to Kamal Banani; and 3302 Polk Street divided with 80% to Estate Land
Company,1 10% to Kamal Banani, and 10% to Tony.                       The trial court also
concluded that the Pearl Lease was valid and enforceable, and that it gave
managerial powers to Aaron until the property was sold. The trial court ordered
that one-half of the net profits from the rents due and paid under the Pearl Lease
would be paid quarterly to Tony until the sale of 812 Main Street occurred.2

       The trial court signed findings of fact and conclusions of law stating that the
properties were not susceptible to partition in kind; ordering the sale of the
properties; and setting forth the percentages of each property owned by the parties.
The trial court also signed supplemental findings of fact and conclusions of law;
       1
           Estate Land Company is an entity wholly owned and controlled by Aaron.
       2
          The trial court signed a judgment on March 12, 2013. After appellants filed a motion
for new trial, the trial court signed an amended judgment. The terms of the amended judgment,
signed on May 15, 2013, changed the percentages apportioned among the parties regarding 110-
114 Main Street. The May 15 judgment ordered further relief relative to the Pearl Lease and
equal distribution of funds in an account related to the case, payable to Aaron and Tony Wiese.
References to the final judgment in this opinion are to the First Amended Final Judgment and
Order of Sale signed on May 15, 2013.

these related to the Pearl Lease for the 812 Main Street building and reflected how
the rental payments made pursuant to the lease would be made and how the
property would be managed until the building was sold.                 The supplemental
findings also set out the percentages of ownership for the 110-114 Main property.

                                 II. STANDARD OF REVIEW

      In their first four issues, appellants focus largely on contentions that the final
judgment is not supported by the law or the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure.3
Appellants characterize at least some of their arguments as pertaining to subject
matter jurisdiction, although it is not clear from the briefing how jurisdiction is
implicated when appellants complain about asserted failures to comply with the
governing rules and statutory language.

      In their remaining issues, appellants attack the legal and factual sufficiency
of the evidence to support the trial court’s findings of fact. We review a trial
court’s factual findings utilizing the same standards that apply to a review of a
jury’s verdict.     See MBM Fin. Corp. v. Woodlands Operating Co., L.P., 292
S.W.3d 660, 663 (Tex. 2009) (citing Catalina v. Blasdel, 881 S.W.2d 295, 297
(Tex. 1994)). When there is a complete reporter’s record, the trial court’s findings
are not conclusive. See Arrellano v. State Farm Fire & Cas. Co., 191 S.W.3d 852,
856 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2006, no pet.). The trier of fact is the sole
judge of the credibility of the witnesses and the weight to be given their testimony,
and we may not substitute our judgment for that of the trial court simply because
we may disagree with the court’s findings. City of Houston v. Harris County
Outdoor Advertising Ass’n, 879 S.W.2d 322, 327 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th
Dist.] 1994, writ denied) (citing Herbert v. Herbert, 754 S.W.2d 141, 142 (Tex.
1988)).

          Tex. R. Civ. P. 756–771, specifically Tex. R. Civ. P. 770.

                                                3
      We uphold conclusions of law if they can be supported under any legal
theory supported by the evidence, and we will not reverse them unless they are
erroneous as a matter of law. Martin-Simon v. Womack, 68 S.W.3d 793, 796 (Tex.
App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2001, pet. denied) (citing Waggoner v. Morrow, 932
S.W.2d 627, 631 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 1996, no writ). We apply the
de novo standard to conclusions of law. See Zieba v. Martin, 928 S.W.2d 782, 786
n. 3 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 1996, no writ).

      When examining a legal-sufficiency challenge, we review the evidence in
the light most favorable to the challenged finding and indulge every reasonable
inference that would support it. City of Keller v. Wilson, 168 S.W.3d 802, 827
(Tex. 2005). We credit evidence that supports the judgment if reasonable fact
finders could and disregard contrary evidence unless reasonable fact finders could
not. Id. at 827. “No evidence” or legal-insufficiency challenges may be sustained
only when the record discloses one of the following situations: (a) a complete
absence of evidence of a vital fact; (b) the court is barred by rules of law or
evidence from giving weight to the only evidence offered to prove a vital fact; (c)
the evidence offered to prove a vital fact is no more than a mere scintilla; or (d) the
evidence establishes conclusively the opposite of the vital fact. Id. (citing Robert
W. Calvert, “No Evidence” and “Insufficient Evidence” Points of Error, 38 Tex. L.
Rev. 361, 362–63 (1960)).

      When reviewing a factual-sufficiency challenge, we must assess all of the
evidence and may not substitute our judgment for that of the trier of fact. When
the challenge is to a finding on which the prevailing party had the burden of proof,
we may reverse the judgment only if the challenged finding shocks the conscience
or clearly shows bias, or if the favorable evidence is so weak as to make the
judgment clearly wrong and manifestly unjust. Dow Chemical Co. v. Francis, 46

                                          4
S.W.3d 237, 242 (Tex. 2001); Price Pfister, Inc. v. Moore & Kimmey, Inc., 48
S.W.3d 341, 347 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2001, pet. denied). If the
challenge is to an adverse finding, or failure to find, on which the appellant had the
burden of proof, we may reverse only if the failure to find is so contrary to the
overwhelming weight and preponderance of the evidence as to be clearly wrong
and manifestly unjust. Golden Eagle Archery, Inc. v. Jackson, 116 S.W.3d 757,
761 (Tex. 2003).

      The construction of a deed is a question of law for the court, where the
primary duty of the court is to ascertain the intent of the parties within the four
corners of the deed. See: Altman v. Blake, 712 S.W.2d 117, 118 (Tex. 1986).
Accordingly, review is de novo. See Hausser v. Cuellar, 345 S.W.3d 462, 467
(Tex. App.—San Antonio 2011, pet. denied) (citing Range Resources Corp. v.
Bradshaw, 266 S.W.3d 490, 493 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2008, pet. denied)). We
exercise our judgment with no deference to the trial court’s decision. Id. (citing
Quick v. City of Austin, 7 S.W.3d 109, 116 (Tex. 1998)).

                                   III. ANALYSIS

A.    Order of Partition and Sale

      In their first issue, appellants contend that the trial court lacked jurisdiction
to sign the final judgment and order of sale.        While appellants use the term
“jurisdiction,” we construe their argument to attack the procedure employed by the
trial court. Appellants broadly assert the final judgment must be reversed because
the trial court did not follow the requirements of the Texas Rules of Civil
Procedure and the Texas Property Code to determine each party’s share or legal
interests in the properties.

      Section 23.001 of the Texas Property Code provides: “A joint owner or


                                          5
claimant of real property or an interest in real property . . . may compel a partition
of the interest or the property among the joint owners or claimants . . . .” See Tex.
Prop. Code § 23.001 (West, Westlaw through 2013 3d C.S.). Section 23.004 of the
Texas Property Code provides: “A person allotted a share of or an interest in real
property in a partition action holds the property or interest in severalty under the
conditions and covenants that applied to the property prior to the partition.” See
Tex. Prop. Code § 23.004 (West, Westlaw through 2013 3d C.S.).

      When presented with a petition for partition of real estate, the court “shall
determine the share or interest of each of the joint owners or claimants in the real
estate sought to be divided, and all questions of law or equity affecting the title to
such land which may arise.” See Tex. R. Civ. P. 760. Before signing its decree of
partition, the court shall determine whether the property is susceptible of partition.
See Tex. R. Civ. P. 761. If it is determined to be incapable of partition in kind,
then the trial court must order partition by sale. See Tex. R. Civ. P. 770; see also
Pfeffer v. Meissner, 286 S.W.2d 241, 246 (Tex. Civ. App.—Galveston 1955, writ
ref’d n.r.e) (concluding the trial court has continuing jurisdiction to enter orders as
needed in a partition action).

      In its final judgment, the trial court determined that the properties were not
susceptible to partition in kind and ordered sales of each property. The trial court
appointed a receiver to sell the properties subject to confirmation by the court on
the receiver’s sworn report of the sales. The final judgment ordered the proceeds
of the sales distributed among the parties, assigning percentages to each party
relative to each property. Specifically, as set forth above, as to 812 Main and
McKee-Chapman, the trial court ordered the proceeds divided equally between
Aaron and Tony. With respect to the sale of 110-114 Main, proceeds were divided
amongst Tony (50%), Aaron (43.71%), and Kamal Banani (6.29%). The division

                                          6
of proceeds of the sale of 3302 Polk was 80% to Estate Land Company, and 10%
each to Kamal Banani and Tony.           In sum, the final judgment set out the
percentages of each party’s ownership and allocated the distribution of the
proceeds.     Appellants do not identify any asserted deviations from the
requirements of the rules or the Property Code based on these actions.            We
overrule appellants’ first issue.

      In their second and third issues, appellants contend that the final judgment
and sale are not supported by the law and evidence. These challenges focus on
appellants’ contention that there is a conflict between certain findings of fact and
supplemental findings; therefore, according to the appellants, the final judgment is
void or voidable. Finding 4 states in part:

      812 Main is not susceptible to partition in kind. A partition in kind of
      812 Main would not be fair and equitable. 812 Main cannot be
      partitioned in kind without materially impairing its value. 812 Main
      should be partitioned by sale since substantial economic loss and
      substantial prejudice would ensue to Tony if 812 Main is partitioned
      in kind.
Supplemental Finding 1(g), dealing specifically with the Pearl Lease, provides:

      The 812 Main building can be partitioned in kind in such a way that
      Tony Wiese’s 50% interest can be protected by apportioning the
      payments to be received under the terms of the lease.
Finally, Supplemental Finding 1(j) states:

      The competing interests in the 812 Main Building can be balanced
      when the property is partitioned by sale.
      We will not set aside a judgment because of conflicting findings of fact by a
judge or a jury if the conflict can be reconciled. See Morton v. Hung Nguyen, 369
S.W.3d 659, 674 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2012, rev’d in part on other
grounds, 412 S.W.3d 506 (Tex. 2013)). We must reconcile apparent conflicts
where there is any reasonable basis to do so. Id. (citing Anchor, Inc. v. Laguna
                                          7
Enters., Inc., No. 14-00-00283-CV, 2002 WL 287706, at *4 (Tex. App.—Houston
[14th Dist.] Feb. 7, 2002, pet. denied) (op. on reh’g) (citing Bender v. S. Pac.
Transp. Co., 600 S.W.2d 257, 260 (Tex. 1980)).

      There was evidence at trial that Tony and Aaron both were equally liable on
the note to secure the 812 Main property. The deed to 812 Main reflects that
Aaron and Tony were tenants in common who each owned an undivided one-half
interest in the property. There were no changes to the deed or note, and no
documents in the chain of title altering equal ownership. In both findings, the trial
court determined that Tony and Aaron each owned equal shares of 812 Main, and
that Tony was entitled to received his one-half interest. The supplemental finding
seeks to protect Tony’s one-half interest by awarding him one-half of the payments
under the Pearl Lease.

      Appellants have not shown that these findings are irreconcilable.          We
conclude the trial court’s findings relating to the partition of the 812 Main
Building, as well as the division of the rental payments pursuant to the Pearl Lease
until the property is sold, may be reconciled on the basis of the deed’s recital of
Tony’s and Aaron’s undivided, equal ownership of the 812 Main Building.
Therefore, we will not set aside the final judgment. See Tex. R. Civ. P. 760;
Champion v. Robinson, 392 S.W.3d 118, 123 (Tex. App.—Texarkana 2012, pet.
denied) (concluding that trial court determines whether partition in kind is “fair
and equitable,” which includes whether the property can be divided in kind without
materially impairing its value) (citing Cecola v. Ruley, 12 S.W.3d 848, 853 (Tex.
App.—Texarkana, 2000, no pet.)); see also Snow v. Donelson, 242 S.W.3d 570,
572 (Tex. App.—Waco 2007, no pet.) (citing Yturria v. Kimbro, 921 S.W.2d 338,
342 (Tex. App.—Corpus Christi 1996, no writ) (holding that a trial court “applies
the rules of equity in determining the broad question of how property is to be

                                         8
partitioned”)). We overrule appellants’ second and third issues.

      In their fourth issue, appellant contend that the trial court lacked jurisdiction
to order one-half of “net profits” to be paid to appellee and to determine how the
property would be managed until the 812 Main property was sold. Appellants
challenge the part of the final judgment stating as follows:

      . . . [O]ne-half of the net profits from the rents, after reasonable
      expenses, including maintenance, taxes, utilities, insurance, etc. shall
      be paid to [Tony] on a quarterly basis until the 812 Main Building is
      finally sold and such transaction has closed and funded.
This portion of the order relates to the Pearl Lease at 812 Main and requires that
the receiver pay Tony one-half of the net profits from the Pearl Lease rents until
812 Main is sold pursuant to the final judgment.          Without reference to any
authority, appellants contend that there is “no statutory authority or jurisdiction or
authorizing rule permitting” the trial court to order how the property is managed or
operated.

      We reject this contention. Ensuring that Tony receives one-half of the Pearl
Lease rents is consistent with the language of the deed, which reflects that Tony
and Aaron owned the property as tenants in common. It also is consistent with the
trial court’s determination that Tony and Aaron owned undivided equal shares of
this property, and that each should receive equal shares of the profits upon partition
and sale of 812 Main. The trial court had jurisdiction to make this determination
and to order a division of net profits from the rent. See Tex. R. Civ. P. 760; Tex.
Prop. Code § 23.001, 23.004; see Casso v. Fullerton, No. 04-05-00905, 2006 WL
2612600 (Tex. App.—San Antonio Sept. 13, 2006, pet. denied) (mem. op.) (citing
Trevino v. Trevino, 641 S.W.3d 166, 174 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2001, no pet.))
(holding that cotenants are required to share income generated from the property
they own).

                                          9
      Finally, as part of their fourth issue, appellants assert the trial court did not
acquire jurisdiction over—and could not partition or order the sale of—0.164 acres
of the McKee-Chapman tract. They contend that jurisdiction was lacking because
the legal description in Tony’s petition seeking relief as to 0.537 acres is different
from the relief and legal description in the final judgment ordering partition and
sale of both the 0.537-acre and 0.164-acre parcels.           Appellants contend the
allegations in Tony’s petition limit the trial court’s jurisdiction to ordering partition
and sale of only the 0.537-acre parcel. Tony urges that appellants did not object to
the admission of the deed into evidence at trial, and to the extent there was a
variance between pleading and proof, the issue was tried by consent.

      In order to preserve an issue for appellate review, the record must
demonstrate the complaint was made to the trial court by timely objection, and the
trial court ruled on the objection. See Tex. R. Civ. P. 103(a)(1); Tex. R. App. P.
33.1(a).   Appellants did not object to the admission of the Trustee’s Special
Warranty Deed of the McKee-Chapman tract conveying to Aaron and Tony as co-
tenants the 0.537-acre and 0.164-acre parcels referenced in the deed; thus, the
complaint was not preserved for appellate review.

      Further, to the extent appellants’ argument can be construed as a complaint
that Tony’s pleading cannot support the relief in the final judgment, we review
whether the issue was tried by express or implied consent of the parties. See Tex.
R. Civ. P. 67; see also Johnston v. McKinney Am., Inc., 9 S.W.3d 271, 281 (Tex.
App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 1999, pet denied) (holding that to determine whether
an issue was tried by consent, it must appear the issue was actually tried, although
not pleaded).

      Appellants did not object to the admission of the deed, they did not seek any
instruction limiting consideration to only the 0.537-acre parcel included in Tony’s

                                           10
petition, and throughout trial, Aaron maintained he was claiming a 50% interest in
the entire tract. Further, other exhibits introduced without objection contained the
parties’ estimation of contributions toward the purchase of and improvements on
the entire McKee-Chapman tract.

      We believe the issue of partition and sale of the 0.164-acre parcel was tried
by consent. The party who fails to raise the lack of a pleading before submission
of the case cannot later raise the pleading deficiency for the first time on appeal.
See Roark v. Stallworth Oil and Gas, Inc., 813 S.W.2d 492, 495 (Tex. 1991)
(holding that failure of party to direct the trial court’s attention to the absence of
the pleadings before the trial court rendered judgment precludes appeal of the
alleged deficiency); Hartford Fire Ins. Co. v C. Springs 300, Ltd., 287 S.W.3d 771,
780 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2009, pet denied) (concluding that where
issue was raised several times during trial, with no objection, issue was tried by
consent).

      We overrule appellants’ fourth issue.

B.    Deeds and Tenancy-in-Common Agreements

      In issues five through eleven, appellants contend there is factually and
legally-insufficient evidence to support the trial court’s determination of the
parties’ percentages of ownership in the four properties.

      1.     812 Main and 110-114 Main

      Appellants argue that the tenancy-in-common agreements are determinative
of the percentages of interests owned by each party, and that the findings of fact
and the percentages of interest set forth in the final judgment are erroneous because
they are contrary to the percentages assigned in the agreements.

      The recital in the tenancy-in-common agreement for 812 Main assigned 85%

                                         11
to Aaron and 15% to Tony; for 110-114 Main, the recital assigned 84.28% to
Aaron and 15.72% to Tony. Appellants offered these agreements into evidence in
support of a contention that the percentages in each agreement control over the
percentages set forth in the deeds. Aaron testified that he and Tony both signed
these agreements. Tony denied his signature appeared on the agreements.

       The Special Warranty Deed with Vendor’s Lien as to the 812 Main property
reflects Aaron and Tony, as Grantees, are “tenants in common.”4 The Warranty
Deed for 110-114 Main designates Aaron and Tony, as Grantees, and reflects they
are “co-tenants.”5 The deed is prima facie evidence of the grantee’s ownership;
where the interest of each grantee is not stated, a rebuttable presumption arises that
each has an equal undivided interest in the property.               See In re Marriage of
Murray, 15 S.W.3d 202, 205 (Tex. App.—Texarkana 2000, no pet.) (citing Zephyr
v. Zephyr, 679 S.W.2d 553, 556 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 1984, writ ref’d
n.r.e.)).

       It is undisputed that neither tenancy-in-common agreement was incorporated
in or referred to in the deeds; and further, the deeds themselves were not changed
to reflect the percentages set out in the purported tenancy-in-common agreements.
It is also undisputed that neither tenancy-in-common agreement was filed in the
real property records.

       Interpreting the unambiguous language of the deed precludes reference to
any parol evidence, such as the tenancy-in-common agreements. Stewman Ranch,


       4
          A “tenancy in common” is a tenancy by two or more person, in equal or unequal
undivided shares, where each such person has an equal right to possess the whole property, but
with no right of survivorship. See Frazier v. Donovan, 420 S.W.3d 463, 467 (Tex. App.—Tyler
2014, no pet.) (citing Black’s Law Dictionary 1604 (9th Ed. 2009)).
       5
         The co-ownership of separate, undivided interests in land is a cotenancy. See Cecola v.
Ruley, 12 S.W.3d 848, 853 (Tex. App.—Texarkana 2000, no pet.).

Inc v. Double M. Ranch, Ltd., 192 S.W.3d 808, 810 (Tex. App.—Eastland 2006,
pet. denied). We consider the entire document under the “four corners” rule and
determine the parties’ intention by looking at what is stated in the deed, not what it
is claimed they meant.       See T.F.W. Management, Inc. v. Westwood Shores
Property, 162 S.W.3d 564, 568 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2004, no pet.)
(citing Lenape Res. Corp. v. Tenn. Gas Pipeline Co., 925 S.W.2d 565, 574 (Tex.
1996)); see also Esquivel v. Murray Guard, Inc., 992 S.W.2d 536, 544 (Tex.
App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 1999, pet. denied). We must garner the intent from
the language of the deed, as opposed to extraneous evidence.              See Hance,
Scarborough, Wright, Ginsberg & Brusilow, L.L.P. v. Kincaid, 70 S.W.3d 907,
911 (Tex. App.—Amarillo 2002, pet. denied). We may not rewrite the agreement
to mean something it did not say; what the parties like or dislike about the contract
“matters not.” Id. (citing HECI Exploration Co. v. Neel, 982 S.W.2d 881, 888–89
(Tex. 1998)).

      Thus, unless the tenancy-in-common agreements were incorporated into the
deeds to the two tracts, or filed of record in the chain of title, they may not be
considered as altering the parties’ ownership set forth in the deeds. “[I]t is a well
settled rule of law that in the construction of written instruments, all instruments in
a chain of title, when referred to in a deed . . . will be read into it.” Millican DPC
Partners, L.P. v. Frank Bobbitt McGregor Trust, 433 S.W.3d 67, 73 (Tex. App.—
San Antonio 2014, pet filed) (citing Dixon v. Amoco Prod. Co., 150 S.W.3d 191,
194 (Tex. App.—Tyler 2004, pet denied)). Because there is no evidence that the
tenancy-in-common agreements were filed in the chain of title, we hold the terms
of the agreements may not be read into the deeds.

      We overrule appellants’ issues five through nine.

      2.     “Sweat equity”

      Appellants argue the trial court determined that Tony contributed “sweat
equity” toward the properties at 812 Main, 110-114 Main, and McKee-Chapman,
and that there was no evidence to support the trial court’s award of 50% interest to
Tony. Appellants further assert the trial court ordered the equal division based on
“sweat equity” as to McKee-Chapman, but not as to 3302 Polk, even where there
was no question of equal ownership of these properties. The findings referencing
“sweat equity” relate only to 812 Main and 110-114 Main. The final judgment
awards equal ownership to Tony and Aaron as to 812 Main, 110-114 Main, and
McKee-Chapman, and awards 80% to Estate Land Company, 10% to Kamal
Banani, and 10% to Tony. These percentages are set out in the deeds. The final
judgment does not award Tony any sum of money or percentage interest based on
the theory of “sweat equity.” Rather, the percentages awarded to appellants and
Tony for these properties were based on the language in the respective deeds. The
deeds to both 812 Main and 110-114 Main reflect that, as tenants in common or
cotenants, Aaron and Tony held undivided one-half interests in the properties. The
deed as to 3302 Polk controlled the trial court’s division of the proceeds from the
sale of 3302 Polk. Thus, there is legally and factually-sufficient evidence to
support the percentages of ownership and the distribution of proceeds after the sale
of these properties.

      We overrule appellants’ issue ten.

      Finally, in their eleventh issue, appellants challenge three findings of fact
and conclusions of law, which provide as follows:

      Finding of Fact 25: There are no agreements, understandings, or
      competent evidence to alter the ownership interest of Tony for 812
      Mai, 110-114 Main, McKee-Chapman, or Polk, as reflected in the 812
      Main Deed, 110-114 Main Deed, McKee-Chapman Deed, and the
                                           14
      Polk Deed.
      Finding of Fact 27: The Court has exercised its authority to adjust all
      equities between Tony, Aaron, Kamal, and ELC in determining the
      ownership interests of the parties and Tony’s right to receive his share
      of the net proceeds from the partition by sale as stated above.
      Finding of Fact 28: The Court is of the opinion that a fair and
      equitable division of the real estate, or any part thereof, in this lawsuit
      cannot be made and an order of sale should be made for cash under a
      private or public sale and the proceeds returned into court and divided
      among the persons entitled thereto, according to their respective
      interests.
      Appellants do not assert any factual or legal argument with respect to these
three findings of fact and conclusions of law that were not made and addressed in
connection with issues five through eleven, which we have overruled. Therefore,
for those same reasons, we overrule appellants’ issue eleven.

      We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
