:: I'm pretty sure that 'division' and 'equitable distribution' can also relate directly to how estates are dealt with upon a death, in regards to heirs and legal wills & such, at least in some legal systems. I believe that the term can also be applied to what happens when a corporation shuts down and multiple debtors have claims to a small pool of capital assets. So, I could see an argument for sections of the article reflecting how the term applies to differing situations. I think we're in need of an expert here to lay out the differing applicable meanings.

::: In Virginia equitable distribution means only one thing, and that is the division of a marital estate upon divorce. There is no legal phrase "division of property" but in any other context, a court's adjudication would be in a suit to partition. [[Davdef]] 31 August 2008 |

Why don't we discuss each legal concept related to divorce in divorce article? -- Taku 02:46 May 3, 2003 (UTC)
- Because these topics do not only deal with divorce, they deal with civil union, annulment, common-law marriage and other such statute and judge made principles. Alex756 02:50 May 3, 2003 (UTC)
- I see. -- Taku 01:19 May 4, 2003 (UTC)
- I am not so sure what Alex said is true. I can't say for sure, but I think property division applies only to divorce. In the sense of property division, however, the termination of all these bonds (marriage, civil unions, etc.) may be considered divorce (or seen as divorce). I am 100% sure on this.

Merger proposal
It looks like "Distribution of property" is a smaller, even less informative stub than this short article. I propose they be merged before they grow too big and separate from each other. 65.112.197.16 19:05, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
