Practice question
The parties validly stipulate a different condition for the new obligation. No legal prohibition intervenes. Does 1299 categorically require the old condition regardless of their agreement?
- Yes; the qualification is absent from the text.
- Only the old debtor’s age matters.
- Every new condition is automatically void.
- The agreement must be ignored solely because it is written.
- No; the article expressly permits otherwise stipulating.
