841 - Action for nuisance.

§ 841. Action for nuisance. An action for a nuisance may be maintained  in  any  case  where such an action might have been maintained under the  laws in force immediately before the taking effect of article seventh of  title one of chapter fourteenth of the code of civil procedure as  added  thereto  by  chapter  one  hundred seventy-eight of the laws of eighteen  hundred eighty. A person by whom the nuisance has  been  erected  and  a  person  to  whom the real property has been transferred may be joined as  defendants in such an action. A final judgment in favor of the plaintiff  may award him damages or direct the removal of  the  nuisance  or  both.  This  section  does  not  affect an action wherein the complaint demands  judgment for a sum of money only.
