     25-13-823. Restraint of waste during redemption period. Until the expiration of the time allowed for redemption, the court may restrain the commission of waste on the property, by order granted with or without notice, on the application of the purchaser or the judgment creditor. But it is not waste for the person in possession of the property at the time of sale or entitled to possession afterward, during the period allowed for redemption, to continue to use it in the same manner in which it was previously used, to use it in the ordinary course of husbandry, to make the necessary repairs of buildings thereon, or to use wood or timber on the property therefor or for the repair of fences or for fuel for his family while he occupies the property.
