Article 1386

Contract Law
Titre XXIX: Des Transactions (On Settlements)

Si dans une transaction les parties renoncent à tous droits, actions ou prétentions, cette renonciation ne doit s'entendre que des droits relatifs à l'objet qui fait la matière de la contestation.

Life lesson: A blanket renunciation in a settlement only covers the specific dispute — not unrelated rights.
Notes: Restrictive interpretation of general renunciation: limited to dispute's subject matter. Protects against overbroad waivers.
