ASSIGNMENT OF REAL ESTATE IN PAYMENT OF DEBT


Dation in payment (Dacion en Pago)
Article 1245. Dation in payment, whereby property is alienated
to the creditor in satisfaction of a debt in money, shall be
governed by the law of sales.
Dation in payment is the delivery and transmission of ownership of a
thing by the debtor to the creditor as an accepted equivalent of the
performance of the obligation
The modern concept of dation in payment considers it as a novation by
change of the object, and generally this is the more juridically correct
view.
Our Civil Code, however, provides in this article that, where the debt is
in money, the law on sales shall govern; in this case, the act is deemed
to be a sale, with the amount of the obligation to the extent that it is
extinguished being considered as the price.
The dation in payment extinguishes the obligation to the extent of the
value of the thing delivered, either as agreed upon by the parties or as
may be proved, unless the parties by agreement, express or implied, or
by their silence, consider the thing as equivalent to the obligation, in
which case the obligation is totally extinguished.
Assignment of property by the debtor to his creditors, provided for in
article 1255 (Payment by Cession), is similar to dation in payment in
that both are substitute forms of performance of an obligation. Unlike
the assignment for the benefit of creditors, however, dation in
payment does not involve plurality of creditors, nor the whole of the
property of the debtor. It does not suppose a situation of financial
difficulties, for it may be made even by a person who is completely
solvent. It merely involves a change of the object of the obligation by
agreement of the parties and at the same time fulfilling the same
voluntarily.
