§ 815. Judgment in action for waste against tenant of particular
estate. If the plaintiff recovers in an action for waste, other than an
action brought as prescribed in section 817, the final judgment must
award to him compensatory damages. Where the action is brought by the
person next entitled to the reversion and it appears, in like manner,
that the injury to the estate in reversion is equal to the value of the
tenant's estate or unexpired term, the final judgment must also award to
the plaintiff the forfeiture of the defendant's estate and the
possession of the place wasted.
