Obligations And Conditions Explained
Summary
Obligations in contract law can be pure or conditional. Pure obligations are unconditional, while conditional ones depend on certain events. Potestative conditions based solely on the debtors will are void. Suspensive conditions delay obligations until fulfilled, while resolutory conditions extinguish them upon fulfillment. In facultative obligations, if the principal is void, substitutes arent required. Loss of a determinate thing without debtors fault doesnt incur damages. Constructive fulfillment applies if a party prevents a conditions fulfillment. Fortuitous events extinguish obligations if the principal is lost. Debtors have the right to choose prestations, barring unlawful or impossible options.Full Conversation
