Where the liens and other securities and preferential rights furnished when the contract of surety is concluded or subsequently obtained from the principal debtor for the specific purpose of securing the claim under surety are reduced by the creditor to the detriment of the surety, the latter’s liability is decreased by an equal amount unless it can be proven that the damage is less. Claims for restitution of the over-paid amount are unaffected. Moreover, in the case of contracts of surety for the performance of official and civil service obligations, the creditor is liable to the surety if, as a result of his failure to supervise the employee as required or to act with the diligence that could reasonably be expected of him, the obligation arose or increased to an extent that it would not have otherwise reached. On being satisfied by the surety, the creditor is required to furnish him with such documents and information as are required to exercise his rights. The creditor must also release to him the liens and other securities furnished when the contract of surety was concluded or subsequently obtained from the principal debtor for the specific purpose of securing the claim under surety or must take the requisite measures to facilitate their transfer. This does not apply to liens and rights of pledge held by the creditor in relation to other claims where they take precedence over those of the surety. Where the creditor refuses without just cause to take such measures or has alienated the available evidence or the pledges and other securities for which he is responsible in bad faith or through gross negligence, the surety is released from his liability. He may demand the return of sums already paid and seek compensation for any further damage incurred.Amended by No II Art. 1 No 12 of the FA of 25 June 1971, in force since 1 Jan. 1972  (AS 1971 1465; BBl 1967 II 241). See also the Final and Transitional Provisions of Title X, at the end of this Code.

Sch’il creditur sminuescha per dischavantatg dal garant dretgs da pegn u autras segirezzas ed auters dretgs da privilegi ch’existan il mument, che la garanzia vegn surpigliada, u ch’el ha obtegnì posteriuramain dal debitur principal en spezial per garantir il credit, sa sminuescha la responsabladad dal garant per in import che correspunda a questa sminuziun, nun ch’i vegnia cumprovà ch’il donn è main grond. I resta resalvà da pretender che l’import, ch’è vegnì pajà da memia, vegnia restituì. En cas d’ina garanzia per uffizis publics e per servetschs publics, stat il creditur ultra da quai bun vers il garant, sch’il debit è naschì perquai ch’el ha negligì la surveglianza dal lavurant, la quala el era obligà d’exequir u perquai ch’el ha tralaschà il quità che pudeva vegnir pretendì dad el u sche quest debit è s’augmentà en ina proporziun ch’el n’avess betg cuntanschì il cas cuntrari. Il creditur ha da consegnar ils documents ch’èn utils e da dar las infurmaziuns ch’èn necessarias al garant, che l’ha cuntentà, per che quel possia far valair ses dretgs. El ha ultra da quai er da consegnar ils pegns e las autras garanzias ch’eran avant maun il mument, che la garanzia vegn surpigliada, u ch’èn vegnids stabilids posteriuramain dal debitur principal en spezial per la pretensiun garantida, u da far ils pass ch’èn necessaris per lur transferiment. Ils dretgs da pegn e da retenziun ch’il creditur ha per far valair autras pretensiuns restan resalvads, uschenavant ch’els precedan a quels dal garant en quai che concerna il rang. Il garant vegn deliberà, sch’il creditur refusa nungiustifitgadamain da far quests pass ubain sch’el è sa privà cun malart u per greva negligientscha dals meds da cumprova ch’èn avant maun u dals pegns e da las autras segirezzas, per ils quals el è responsabel. El po pretender enavos quai ch’el ha pajà ed ultra da quai pretender ch’il donn ch’è resultà tras quai vegnia indemnisà.Versiun tenor la cifra II art. 1 cifra 12 da la LF dals 25 da zer. 1971, en vigur dapi il 1. da schan. 1972 (a la fin dal DO, disposiziuns finalas e transitoricas dal titel X; AS 1971 1465; BBl 1967 II 241).
