 Correct meaning? 
I'd like to fix some details in the italian article, but - as not native english speaker - I need to be sure. This is my question: I suppose that official italian translation is wrong about the lawsuit described in chapter 19.
The original text says They in­sti­tuted a law­suit deny­ing the obli­ga­tion to pay debts to an in­di­vid­ual with a pros­thetic heart... Does this sentence mean: #1 No one is obligated to pay debts to any robot/android OR #2 A robot/android is not obligated to pay debts? #2 is teh italian version, but #1 looks more logical to me because at the end of chapter #17 Andrew says: ""I have been un­der obli­ga­tion to in­di­vid­ual mem­bers of the firm in times past. I am not, now. It is rather the other way around now and I am call­ing in my debts."" Thanks!   "
