De l'Extinction des Obligations

Contract Law
Titre XVII: Des Contrats ou Obligations conventionnelles en général (On Contracts or Conventional Obligations in General)
Chapitre IV: De l'Extinction des Obligations (On the Extinction of Obligations)

Tout payement fait de bonne foi au possesseur de la créance, est valable, même quand le possesseur en serait par la suite évincé.

Life lesson: If you pay in good faith to whoever holds the claim, you're safe — even if they turn out to be the wrong person.
Notes: Good-faith payment to possessor of créance valid. Cf. Code Napoléon Art. 1240.
