§ 12-1485. Judgment for occupying claimant - Appeal

If the appraisers or jury appointed or impaneled as hereinbefore

provided, shall find that the value of the improvements is greater

than the value of the rents and damages and waste, then the court

shall enter judgment that the successful claimant pay to the clerk

of the court for the use of the occupying claimant the full amount

of the excess of the value of the improvements over the value of the

rents, damages and waste before the writ of ouster shall issue;

Provided, that if either party shall deem himself aggrieved by the

judgment and shall desire to contest either or both the findings of

the court or the appraisement of the appraisers or the jury herein

provided for, by appeals or otherwise, to a higher court, and the

successful claimant shall execute an undertaking to the occupying

claimant in double the amount of the excess in value as found by the

appraisers or the jury, with good and sufficient surety to be

approved by the clerk of the court, conditioned that he will pay

such excess with interest from the date of the judgment, if the

judgment be affirmed by the appellate court, then the writ of ouster

shall, at the request of the successful claimant issue at once.
