Study Notes
Obligations and Payments
- Anyone who has the capacity to pay can pay an obligation, including the debtor, a third person, or even the creditor themselves.
Determinate Obligation to Give
- Loss or destruction of the specific thing owed in a determinate obligation to give excuses the debtor from payment, and the obligation is extinguished.
Dacion en Pago
- Dacion en pago is a mode of payment where the debtor offers a different thing in place of the original thing owed, and the creditor accepts it as full payment.
Novation by Subrogation
- Novation by subrogation occurs when a third person pays the debt, and the creditor accepts the payment, thereby extinguishing the original obligation and creating a new one between the creditor and the third person.
Condonation or Remission of Debt
- Condonation or remission of debt, which is a voluntary waiver of the right to demand payment, extinguishes the obligation, and the debtor is released from their liability.
