Judgment directing compensation to equalize partition. Where it appears that partition cannot be made equal between the parties according to their respective rights without prejudice to the rights or interests of some of them, the final judgment may award compensation to be made by one party to another for equality of partition. But compensation cannot be so awarded against a party who is unknown or whose name is unknown. Nor can it be awarded against an infant unless it appears that he has personal property sufficient to pay it and that his interests will be promoted thereby.
