CO; Parte seconda: Dei singoli contratti; Titolo tredicesimo: Del mandato; Capo primo: Del mandato propriamente detto; C. Effetti; II. Obblighi del mandatario; 2. Responsabilità per fedele esecuzione; b. In caso di subdelegazione
Art. 399 CO
Il mandatario, che indebitamente commette la trattazione dell’affare ad un terzo, è responsabile dell’operato di questo, come se fosse suo proprio.
S’egli è autorizzato a farsi sostituire, è responsabile soltanto della debita diligenza nello scegliere e nell’istruire il terzo.
In entrambi i casi il mandante può far valere direttamente contro il terzo le azioni che contro questo competono al mandatario.
