Contracts and Obligations

Third persons who come into possession of the object of the contract are not bound by the contract, unless they agree to it.

Creditors are not protected in cases of contracts intended to defraud them.

A contract is only binding if it is in writing and signed by the parties.

Real contracts, such as deposit and commodatum, are perfected as soon as the parties agree to the terms.

A third person who induces another to violate their contract is not liable for damages.

In contracts creating real rights, third persons who come into possession of the object of the contract are not bound by the provisions of the Mortgage Law and the Land Registration Laws.

Creditors are not protected in cases where contracts are intended to benefit them.

A third person who induces another to fulfill their contract is not liable for damages to the other contracting party.

Contracts are perfected by the delivery of the object of the obligation, and from that moment the parties are bound only to the fulfillment of what has been expressly stipulated.

All contracts, including deposit and commodatum, are perfected by mere consent.
