Practice question
A valid contract clearly and deliberately grants a favor to a third person. Before the stipulation is revoked, that beneficiary communicates acceptance to the obligor. Under Article 1311, may the beneficiary demand fulfillment?
- No, because no third person can ever enforce any stipulation.
- No, unless the beneficiary was the original seller.
- No, because acceptance must always follow revocation.
- No, because deliberate benefit is legally irrelevant.
- Yes, the stated acceptance satisfies the timing condition for enforcing that third-person stipulation.
