Practice question
Two principals have court-determined class quotas of P40,000 and P60,000. The victim seeks the full P100,000 principal-class amount from the solvent principal under Article110. That principal invokes the internal P40,000 share as an absolute bar. What distinction applies?
- Every principal owes only a voluntary donation
- The internal share always defeats class solidarity
- The victim can recover nothing if one principal is insolvent
- Internal shares coexist with in-solidum liability within the principal class
- The court’s apportionment repeals Article110
Legal references
- Revised Penal Code, Articles95-96,109-110 and159, as applicable: https://lawphil.net/statutes/acts/act1930/act_3815_1930.html
