SECTION 1473-1479



1473.  Full performance of an obligation, by the party whose duty it
is to perform it, or by any other person on his behalf, and with his
assent, if accepted by the creditor, extinguishes it.



1474.  Performance of an obligation, by one of several persons who
are jointly liable under it, extinguishes the liability of all.



1475.  An obligation in favor of several persons is extinguished by
performance rendered to any of them, except in the case of a deposit
made by owners in common, or in joint ownership, which is regulated
by the Title on Deposit.


1476.  If a creditor, or any one of two or more joint creditors, at
any time directs the debtor to perform his obligation in a particular
manner, the obligation is extinguished by performance in that
manner, even though the creditor does not receive the benefit of such
performance.



1477.  A partial performance of an indivisible obligation
extinguishes a corresponding proportion thereof, if the benefit of

his retention thereof is not presumed to be voluntary.
