SOLIDARITY

Article 1207. The concurrence of two or more

creditors or of two or more debtors in one and

the same obligation does not imply that each

one of the former has a right to demand, or that

each one of the latter is bound to render, entire

compliance with the prestation. There is a

solidary liability only when the obligation

expressly so states, or when the law or the

nature of the obligation requires solidarity.
