§ 23131. If Purchaser is Evicted; How He May Recover.

If the purchaser of real property sold on execution, or his

successor in interest, be evicted therefrom in consequence of

irregularities in the proceedings concerning the sale, or of the

reversal or discharge of the judgment, he may recover the price

paid, with interest, from the judgment creditor. If the purchaser

of property at an execution sale, or his successor in interest, fails

to recover possession in consequence of irregularity in the

proceedings concerning the sale, or because the property sold

was not subject to execution and sale, the court having

jurisdiction thereof must, after notice and on motion of such

party in interest, or his attorney, revive the original judgment in

the name of the petitioner for the amount paid by such purchaser

at the sale, with interest thereon from the time of payment at the

same rate that the original judgment bore; and the judgment so

revived has the same force and effect as would an original

judgment of the date of the revival, and no more.
