Article 502Subrogation by Partial Performance

第五百二条(一部弁済による代位)

If performance by subrogation occurs with respect to one part of a claim, the subrogee, with the consent of the obligee, may exercise the rights of the subrogee together with the obligee in proportion to the value of the subrogee's performance.

債権の一部について代位弁済があったときは、代位者は、債権者の同意を得て、その弁済をした価額に応じて、債権者とともにその権利を行使することができる。

Even in a case referred to in the preceding paragraph, the obligee may exercise the obligee's right independently.

前項の場合であっても、債権者は、単独でその権利を行使することができる。

The right to be exercised by the obligee in the case referred to in the preceding two paragraphs prevails over the right to be exercised by the subrogee with regard to money to be obtained as a result of the exercise of the rights such as the proceeds from the sale of the property that is the subject of security for the claim of the obligee.

前二項の場合に債権者が行使する権利は、その債権の担保の目的となっている財産の売却代金その他の当該権利の行使によって得られる金銭について、代位者が行使する権利に優先する。

In the case referred to in paragraph (1), the cancellation of a contract based on the failure to perform the obligation may be effected only by the obligee. In such a case, the obligee must reimburse to the subrogee the value of the performance that the subrogee effected plus interest.

第一項の場合において、債務の不履行による契約の解除は、債権者のみがすることができる。この場合においては、代位者に対し、その弁済をした価額及びその利息を償還しなければならない。
