Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Code of Civil Procedure.  Provides that the  ownership      
   of  an  interest  in the surface of lands by a co-owner of an interest      
   in minerals underlying the surface does not prevent partition  of  the      
   mineral  estate.  Provides that the amendatory Act is a declaration of      
   existing law. Effective immediately.                                        
        HOUSE AMENDMENT NO. 1.                                                 
          Adds reference to:                                                   
          765 ILCS 510/1                  from Ch. 96 1/2, par. 4401

        Provides that the amendatory Act may not be construed to allow an      
   owner of a mineral interest in coal to mine and remove the coal by the      
   surface method of mining without first obtaining the consent of all of      
   the owners of the surface to the mining and removal of coal by the          
   surface method of mining.
