Art. 181 Legge federale del 30 marzo 1911 di complemento del Codice civile svizzero (CO)
CO; Parte prima: Disposizioni generali; Titolo quinto: Della cessione di crediti e dell’assunzione di debiti; B. Assunzione di debito; V. Assunzione di un patrimonio o di una azienda
Art. 181 CO
Chi assume un patrimonio od un’azienda con l’attivo ed il passivo, rimane senz’altro obbligato verso i creditori per i debiti inerenti, tosto che l’assunzione sia stata comunicata ai creditori dall’assuntore o sia stata pubblicata su pubblici fogli.
Il debitore precedente rimane tuttavia obbligato solidalmente col nuovo debitore per altri tre anni, i quali cominciano a decorrere, per i debiti scaduti, dal giorno della comunicazione o della pubblicazione e, per quelli non scaduti, dal giorno della scadenza.
Questa assunzione di debiti ha del resto gli stessi effetti come quella di un singolo debito.
L’assunzione del patrimonio o dell’azienda di società commerciali, società cooperative, associazioni, fondazioni o imprese individuali iscritte nel registro di commercio è retta dalle disposizioni della legge del 3 ottobre 2003 sulla fusione.
