A defendant, who had guaranteed the obligations of a borrower to a lender under a mortgage and had subsequently paid the debt after the borrower defaulted, sought to recover the amount paid from the original borrower based on a subrogation right to the lender's rights against the borrower, but the court rejected the claim because the guarantor, having fulfilled the obligations, was only entitled to an action for reimbursement against the principal debtor, not subrogation to the rights of the creditor, which is reserved for a third party who pays a debt without being personally obligated, making the requested subrogation legally unfounded in this context.
