1. If the disposition of a debtor whose debts exceed the value of his property is
carried out only to unlawfully give priority to one creditor over another, such
disposition shall only result in denying the creditor such priority.
2. If a debtor whose debts exceed the value of his property pays the debt of
any of his creditors prior to the maturity date of the debt, the other creditors
may demand the invalidation of the payment of such debt. However, if the
payment is made after the debt’s maturity date, the other creditors may not
demand the invalidation of the payment of such debt, unless such payment
is done in collusion with said creditor.
