Civil Transactions Law

1. If a surety pays a debt, the creditor shall deliver to him all the documents necessary to exercise his right of recourse against the debtor. 2. If the surety pays the debt and the debt is secured by an in-kind security, the creditor shall surrender the security to the surety if it is a movable property; if, however, the security is a real property, the creditor shall take the measures necessary to transfer to the surety the rights to the security, and the cost of said transfer shall be incurred by the surety.
