Abstract

This article analyses the payment carried out by someone who is not the debtor or the exclusive debtor in order to determine how such diverse interests - as those of the creditor, debtor and solvens - are conciliated from two stand points: the extent and the intensity of the legal standing of the third party, that is, to what extent it is legal for the third party to persevere in their compliance claim by imposing the payment. Finally, the payment effects are analyzed in order to determine the content and limits of the reimbursement and subrogation rights, as well as the manner in which they are integrated.
