Joint owners ,can partner make you sell

In the UK if a couple own a house in joint names (not married) and they split up , the lady of the house has the right to stay in it until the children are 18 , I think. The partner does not have the right to force the sale.

Does the same law apply with French property ?

I think that is an oversimplification of UK law.

I don't think that it applies in France. If you have a specific problem, you should hotfoot it to a Notaire or Avocat. IANAL, but "common-law" partners here have exactly the same rights as they have in the UK - none.
