In an action brought pursuant to 21-41-1 it shall be necessary for the plaintiff to state in his complaint in general terms only that he has or claims title in fee to the property, or a lien upon or interest therein as the case may be, which property must be described with sufficient certainty to enable an officer on execution to identify it; that the defendants are proper parties under the provisions of this chapter, and that the action is brought for the purpose of determining all adverse claims to such property and of quieting title thereto in the plaintiff, or of determining the liens or interest of all parties in and to such property, as the case may be.
The plaintiff may also allege that he is entitled to the possession of the property and may allege any facts concerning the use and occupation and the rents, issues, and profits of the property and the value thereof which may be pertinent. The complaint shall also contain a prayer for the relief to which the plaintiff deems himself entitled, and shall call upon the defendants to set forth all their adverse claims to the property described.
