Liability of possessor with knowledge

(1) If the possessor, in obtaining possession, was not in good faith, then the possessor is liable to the owner starting from the date of the acquisition under sections 987 and 989. If the possessor later discovers that they are not entitled to possession, they are liable in the same way from that date onwards on which they obtained the knowledge.

(2) A more extensive liability of the possessor for default remains unaffected.
