Article 1211

Solidarity may exist although the creditors


and the debtors may not be bound in the
same manner and by the same periods and
conditions.
Article 1212
Each one of the solidary creditor may do
whatever may be useful to the others, but
not anything which may be prejudicial to
the latter.
Article 1213
A solidary creditor cannot assign his rights
without the consent of the others.
Article 1214
• The debtor may pay any one of the
solidary creditors; but if any demand,
judicial or extrajudicial, has been made by
one of them, payment should be made to
him.
Article 1215
Novation, compensation, confusion or
remission of the debt, made by any of the
solidary creditors or with any of the solidary
debtors, shall extinguish the obligation,
without prejudice to the provisions of article.

The creditor who may have executed any of


these acts, as well as he who collects the debt,
shall be liable to the others for the share in the
obligation corresponding to them.
Article 1216
The creditor may proceed against any one of
the solidary debtors or some or all of them
simultaneously.The demand made against
one of them shall not be an obstacle to
those which may subsequently be directed
against the others, so long as the debt has
not been fully collected.
Article 1217
Payment made by one of the solidary debtors extinguishes the
obligation. If two or more solidary debtors offer to pay, the
creditor may choose which offer to accept.
He who made the payment may claim from his co-debtors only
the share which corresponds to each, with the interest for the
payment already made. If the payment is made before the debt
is due, no interest for the intervening period may be demanded.
When one of the solidary debtors cannot , because of his
insolvency, reimburse his share to the debtor paying the
obligation, such share shall be borne by all his co-debtors , in
proportion to the debt of each.
Article 1218
Payment by a solidary debtor shall not
entitle him to reimbursement from his co-
debtors if such payment is made after the
obligatio has prescribed or become illegal.
Article 1219
The remission made by the creditor of the
share which affects one of the solidary
debtors does not release the latter from his
responsibility towards the debtors, in case
the debt had been totally paid by anyone of
them before the remission was effected.
Article 1220
The remission of the whole obligation
obtained by one of the solidary debtors,
does not entitle him to reimbursement from
his co-debtors.
