A usufructuary may transfer or encumber his right without thereby modifying the duration of the right. The acquirer and the original usufructuary are solidarily liable to the owner for all obligations resulting from the usufruct. Where, at the time of establishment of the usufruct, the original usufructuary has been given more extensive power to alienate or consume than that granted by law, subsequent acquirers of the usufruct are not entitled to do this.
