2A:62-3.  By grantor of mapped and sold lots
    If any person, while in peaceable possession of lands and claiming ownership  thereof, has made and filed or makes and files a map thereof according to law,  dividing such lands into lots and laying out and dedicating streets upon such  lands and has sold and conveyed or sells and conveys any of the lots designated  on the map, he may, for the purpose of avoiding a multiplicity of actions, in  his own name and notwithstanding any sale and conveyance made by him, maintain  the action authorized by section 2A:62-1 of this title, which shall not be  dismissed because the plaintiff has sold and conveyed any of the lots before  the action is instituted.  For the purposes of such action the title and  possession of his grantees shall be the title and possession of the plaintiff.
