Article 1476
Right to Claim an Equal Share
(1)
Where a prestation is owed to two or more creditors, each of them has the right to claim an equal share, unless, as a result of the law, custom or a juridical act, they are entitled to unequal shares of the prestation or they have jointly a single claim.
#(2)
Where the prestation is indivisible or the right to it is held in solidarity, they have jointly a single claim.
#(3)
The fact that the right to claim is held in solidarity cannot be invoked against the debtor where this right results from a contract he has entered into with the partners, provided that he did not know nor ought to know that the right would be held in solidarity.
