1673

The owner of the servient tenement cannot impair, in any manner whatsoever, the use of an established servitude.\nNevertheless, if by reason of the place originally assigned or of the manner established for the use of the servitude, it shall become too inconvenient to the owner of the servient tenement or prevent him from undertaking works, repairs, or important improvements, it may be changed at his expense, provided he offers another place or manner equally convenient, and no detriment is thereby caused to the owner of the dominant tenement or to those who have a right to the use of the servitude.\nHistory —Civil Code, 1930, § 481.
