Supreme Court dismisses debt repayment claim where debtor knew of invalid debt but creditor failed to stop execution.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the debtor's claim for repayment of overpaid funds, ruling that the creditor's failure to halt execution after learning of the debt's invalidity constituted implied consent. The debtor had received notice of a revision reducing the debt and expert opinions confirming the lower amount, yet the creditor continued enforcement proceedings. Consequently, the court held that the debtor could not demand restitution because the creditor's inaction amounted to approval of the continued collection.
Legislator headnote
AI generatedArt. 411 pkt 1 KC; Art. 300 KP: A debtor who knows a payment is not due but allows enforcement to continue after being informed of the error is deemed to have consented to the collection and cannot claim restitution.
