Choshen Mishpat is set from the Lemberg 1898 edition, which is unpointed, so the vowels switch has nothing to remove here.

Se’if 1א׳

דברים שבני החצר כופין זה את זה. ובו ו סעיפים: בני העיר [נ"א החצר] כופין זה את זה לבנות דלת ובית שער לחצר וכן כל הדברים שהחצר צריך להם צורך גדול או הדברים שנהגו בני המדינה לעשותם אבל שאר הדברים כגון ציור וכיור אינו כופהו עשה אחד מעצמו אם גילה השני דעתו שהוא חפץ בו מגלגלין עליו את הכל ונותן לו חלקו בהוצאה:

Things in which the residents of a courtyard compel one another; it contains six se'ifim. The residents of a town (another version: of a courtyard) compel one another to build a door and a gatehouse for the courtyard, and likewise all the things of which the courtyard has great need, or the things that the people of the country are accustomed to make; but other things, such as painting and decoration, he does not compel him. If one made them of himself, and the second revealed his mind that he wants it, they charge him with the whole, and he gives him his share in the expense.

Se’if 2ב׳

מי שיש לו בית בחצר ואינו דר עמהם חייב לעשות עמהם דלת נגר (פי' בריחי עצי שיטים תרגום נגרי אעין דשטין) ומנעול אבל לא שאר דברים:

One who has a house in the courtyard but does not live with them must make with them a door, a bolt (that is, bars of acacia wood; the Targum has nagrei a'in de-shittin) and a lock, but not other things.

Se’if 3ג׳

כשגובין דברים אלו גובין לפי הממון ולא לפי קירוב הבתים דדוקא בעיר אמרו לפי קירוב בתים אבל לא בחצר ויש מי שאומר שדין החצר כדין העיר:

When they collect for these things, they collect according to wealth, and not according to the nearness of the houses; for it was specifically in a town that they said according to the nearness of the houses, but not in a courtyard. And there is one who says that the law of the courtyard is as the law of the town.
