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)

La subrogation dans les droits du créancier au profit du tiers qui paye l'obligation, est ou conventionnelle ou légale.

Life lesson: When a third party pays your debt, they may step into the creditor's shoes — by agreement or by law.
Notes: Two types of subrogation: conventional and legal. Cf. Code Napoléon Art. 1249.
