benefit of discussion Explanation: Tom West, in his dictionary, only gives a definition of "beneficio de excusión: guarantor's right to force a creditor to go against the debtor before the creditor takes action against the guarantor. "Alcaraz Varo" Diccionario de Términos Jurídicos also gives only a definition: "right of surety to force a creditor to make use of legal remedies against the principal debtor before having recourse against surety" BUT, Look at the definition in Black's Law Dictionary of "benefit of discussion": In civil law, the right which a surety has to cause the property of the principal debtor to be applied in satisfaction of the obligation in the first instances. Civ.Code La. arts. 3045-3051 (Louisiana being only state to use civil law, based on the Napoleonic code, because of its French heritage, of course). Robb's does actually give "benefit of discussion" as the equivalent of "beneficio de excusión" Tom West, Spanish-English Dictionary of Law and Business; Alcar�z Var�, Diccionario de T�rminos Jur�dicos Robb, Diccionario de T�rminos Legales, Black's Law Dictionary |

benefit of discussion Explanation: I happen to have done quite a bit of research on this term. It is not only the one offered, say, by Robb's Bilingual Legal Dictionary, but also corroborated by doublechecking Black's definition of "benefit of discussion" against that Diccionario para Juristas by Palomar de Miguel for "beneficio de excusión". Everything dovetails exquisitively. Louis A. Robb's Diccionario de T�rminos Legales Black's Law Dictionary, Dicc. para Juristas by Juan Palomar de Miguel |
