Practice question
A valid perfected agreement falls within 1358’s documentation rule, with no missing constitutive form. One party seeks the proper public instrument under 1357. Does that necessarily mean a new bargain must first be invented?
- Every proper-document request automatically creates a new contract.
- No perfected agreement may ever be documented later.
- The requesting party may unilaterally change all terms.
- No; the remedy concerns documentation of the existing agreement.
- Only the notary owns the rights.
