Question

The solidary obligation imposes ___________ liability in law.

• A. Individual
• B. Absolute
• C. Strict
• D. Joint and Several

Hint:

Think of "Solidary Obligation" as a solid group of debtors. The creditor can pick any one of them for the full amount. This is the essence of "joint and several" liability.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

A "solidary obligation" is a legal term, particularly common in civil law systems, for a situation where several debtors are bound to a single creditor for the same obligation.
The key feature of this obligation is that the creditor can demand the entire performance of the obligation from any one of the debtors.
This type of liability is known in the common law system as "joint and several liability.
"
"Joint" means all debtors are liable together as a group.

"Several" means each debtor is individually liable for the full amount of the debt.
This gives the creditor the flexibility to sue one, some, or all of the debtors to recover the entire amount owed.
