Rule 785 May Join as Defendants, When

If you are suing someone to get property back, you can include multiple people in your lawsuit at the same time. For example, you can sue both the person living on or holding the property and anyone else who claims to own it.

This is useful when more than one person might have a claim to the same land or building. Instead of filing separate lawsuits, you can bring everyone into one case and let the court sort out who has the rightful claim.
