Art. 1249 The payment of debts in money shall be made in the currency stipulated, and if it is not possible to deliver such currency, then in the currency which is legal tender in the Philippines. Legal tender the money or currency which a debtor may compel his creditor to accept in payment of his debt, whether public or private. It is the money that is legally valid for the payment of debts and that must be accepted for that purpose when offered.

Javier borrowed P5000 from Alexander. On due date, Javier tendered payment amounting to P5000 consisting of 5000 pieces of P1.00 coin. Here Alexander may validly refuse the payment being offered because P1.00 coins are legal tender only up to P1000.
Art. 1250 In case an extraordinary inflation or deflation of the currency stipulated should supervene, the value of the currency at the time of the establishment of the obligation shall be the basis of payment, unless there is an agreement to the contrary.
Inflation a sharp sudden increase in money and credit or both without a corresponding increase in business transactions. Extraordinary inflation understood to be any uncommon decrease in the purchasing power of the currency which the parties could not have reasonably foreseen and has been due to war or the effect thereof, or any other unusual force majeure or fortuitous event.

Art. 1262 An obligation which consists in the delivery of a determinate thing shall be extinguished if it should be lost or destroyed without the fault of the debtor, and before he has incurred in delay. When by law or stipulation, the obligor is liable even in fortuitous events, the loss of the thing due does not extinguish the obligation, and he shall be responsible for damages. The same rule applies when the nature of the obligation requires the assumption of risk. Art. 1263 In an obligation to deliver a generic thing, the loss or destruction of anything of the same kind does not extinguish the obligation.
Loss A thing is considered lost when it perishes, or goes out of commerce, or disappears in such a way that its existence is unknown or it can not be recovered. Loss includes the physical or legal impossibility of the service in which the obligation consists. For loss to extinguish an obligation, it should occur after the constitution of the obligation. If the loss occurred prior thereto, the obligation would not have any subject matter and will be considered void.
Art 1264 The court shall determine whether, under the circumstances, the partial loss of the object of the obligation is so important as to extinguish the obligation.
Jolo agreed to deliver a specific horse which was meant for entry in the derby race to Gerard. The right front leg of the horse, however, was broken when the horse accidentally fell down a ditch. While the horse could still walk, it could no longer run. In this case, the partial loss of the leg is so important as to extinguish the obligation. If the horse, however, was meant to be used as a modelin a portrait to be painted by Gerard, the partial loss of the leg is not important as to extinguish the obligation.
Art. 1265 Whenever the thing is lost in the possession of the debtor, it shall be presumed that the loss was due to his fault, unless there is a proof to the contrary, and without prejudice to the provisions of article 1165. This presumption does not apply in case of earthquake, flood, storm or other natural calamity. Art. 1266 The debtor in obligation to do shall also be released when the prestations becomes legally or physically impossible without the fault of the obligor.

SECTION 3 CONDONATION OR REMISSION OF THE DEBT (Art. 1270)
Condonation or remission is the gratuitous abandonment by the creditor of his right. In plain language, this refers to the forgiveness of indebtedness. To extinguish the obligation, the consent of the debtor is required.
Dexter borrowed P4,000 from Kimchi.The debt is evidenced by a promissory note executed by Dexter. On due date, Kimchi informs Dexter that he will no longer be collecting the debtand delivers the note to Dexter. Dexter accepts Kimchis generosity. Dexters obligation is extinguished by condonation or remission.
Kinds of condonation or remission
As to amount or extent
Total when the obligation (both the principal and accessory obligations) is extinguished. Partial when only part of the obligation, or only the accessory obligation is remitted.
Express one made orally or in writing. It must, to be valid, comply with the formalities of donation. Implied one inferred from the conduct of the parties, such as when the creditor voluntarily delivers the private document evidencing the credit to the debtor.
As to date of effectivity
Inter vivos one that takes effect during the lifetime of the donor (creditor) Mortis causa one that takes effect upon the death of the donor (creditor) and partakes of the nature of a testamentary disposition.
Requisites of condonation:
The obligation must be damandable at the time of remission. The cause or consideration must be the liberality of the creditor.
This is so because condonation is essentially gratuitous. It is generally presumed.
It must be accepted by the debtor. It must not be inofficious.
The condonation is inofficious if it impairs the legitimate, i.e. The portion of the estate which the law reserves for the compulsory heirs.
Art. 1272 Whenever the private document in which the debt appears is found in the possession of the debtor, it shall be presumed that the creditor delivered it voluntarily, unless the contrary is proved.
Armando issued a promissory note for P10,000 payable to the order of Marloun After one month, the note was found in the possession of Armando. There is here the presumption that Marloun voluntarily delivered the note to Armando. Marloun, however is allowed to prove that the note was taken from him without his consent, such as when it was obtained from him by force or that it was stolen from him.
SECTION 4 CONFUSION OR MERGER OF RIGHTS (Art. 1275)
Confusion or merger is the meeting in one person of the characters of debtor and creditor. The obligation here is extinguished because it is now absurd for the creditor to claim payment from himself.
JL issues a promissory note payable to the order of Luis. Luis indorses the note to Jhong, Jhong indorses the note to Billy, Billy indorses the note back to JL. The obligation here is extinguished because JL, the debtor and maker of the note, is now the creditor of himself.
Art. 1276 Merger which takes place in the person of the principal debtor or creditor benefits the guarantors. Confusion which takes place in the person of any of the latter does not extinguish the obligation. Effect of merger in the person of the principal debtor or creditor when there is a guarantor.
Merger in the person of the principal debtor or creditor benefits the guarantor.
Art. 1277 Confusion does not extinguish a joint obligation except as regards to the share corresponding to the creditor or debtor in whom the two chracters concur. Merger in joint obligation
In joint obligation, merger taking place in the person of one of the joint debtors or joint creditors extinguishes only the share corresponding to the debtor or creditor in whom the two characters concur. Example:
Janette, Jenny and Flor, joint debtors, issued a promissory note for P30,000 payable to Marian. Marian assigns the note to Cha, Cha to Cyrel, and Cyrel to Janette. Here only Janettes share amounting to P10,000 is extinguished because it is only in her person where the qualities of debtor and creditor concur. Jenny and Flor are still liable for P20,000 to Janette who is now the new creditor.
Merger in solidary obligation
Merger in one of the solidary debtors or solidary creditors extinguishes the whole obligation. (Art.1215). The solidary debtor in whom the characters of debtor and creditor concur can demand reimbursement from his co debtors. (Art. 1217). In the case of solidary creditors, he shall be liable to his cocreditors for the share corresponding to each of them. (Art. 1215) Example:
Richard, Ron and Ralph, solidary debtors, issued a promissory note for P30,000 payable to Apol. Apol assigns the note to Teya, Teya to Kaye and Kaye to Richard. Here, the entire obligation is extinguished with all the debtors now being the creditors. Richard, however, can go after Ron and Ralph for reimbursement at P10,000 each. It is as if Richard paid the whole obligation.
SECTION 5 COMPENSATION (Art. 1278)
Compensation mode of extinguishing an obligation when two persons, in their own right, are debtors and creditors of each other.
Arjay owes JR P10,000. JR owes Arjay P10,000. Both debts are due. The parties need not pay each other as their obligations are extinguished by compensation.

Assignment of credits a contract whereby a person (assignor) transfers his credit, right or action against a third person to another (assignee) for a consideration certain in money or its equivalent. (Art. 1458, 1475 and 1624)
Gerard owes Kim P10,000.The debt is evidenced by promissory note executed by Gerard and payable to Kim. Kim assigns the note to Simon with notice to Gerard. The contract between Kim and Simon is known as assignment with Kim as the assignor and Simon , the assignee. Gerard will have to make the payment to Simon and no longer to Kim.
Deposit a contract whereby a person receives a thing belonging to another with the obligation of safely keeping it and of returning the same. Commodatum a contract whereby a party delivers to another a non-consumable thing so that the latter may use the same for a certain time and return it. (Art. 1933)
SECTION 6 NOVATION (Art. 1291)
Novation the modification or extinguishment of an obligation by another, either by changing the object or pricipal condition, substituting the person of the debtor, or subrogating a third person in the rights of the creditor.

Kinds of novation by substitution of the person of the debtor
Expromision this is substitution of debtors initiated by a third person who assumes the obligation with the creditors consent. Delegacion this is substitution of debtors initiated by the debtor himself where a third person assumes the obligation with the creditors consent.
Subrogation the substitution of another person in the place of the creditor, so that the person in whose favor it is exercised succeeds to the right of the creditor in relation to the debt.
Jose obtained a loan of P1,000,000 from Wally. The debt is guaranteed by Paolo. Later, Wally assigned the credit to Jimmy with consent of all the parties. The rights of Wally against Jose and Paolo are transferred to Jimmy. Thus, Jimmy acquires the right to collect from Jose. If Jose cannot pay, Jimmy can proceed against Paolo, the guarantor.
