svecchākṛtavibhāgo yaḥ punar eva visaṃvadet /
sa rājñāṃśe svake sthāpyaḥ śāsanīyo 'nubandhakṛt //

Whether kinsmen are united or separate, they are all alike as regards immovable property, as no one of them has power in any case to give, mortgage, or sell it.
94, 95. Whatever share is enjoyed by each, must not be changed from him. If he should subsequently contest a distribution, which was made with his own consent, he shall be compelled by the king to content himself with his share, and shall be punished if he should persist in contention.
