Abstract

Countless discussions have arisen in the study of Article 1131 of the Commercial Code regarding the prescription of rights held by victims as beneficiaries of insurance. Jurisprudence has opted to present a theory suggesting that, by referring to Article 1081 of this statute, only extraordinary prescription is applicable in these cases, raising several concerns such as those mentioned below: Is this interpretation valid? Does this interpretation affect the prescription of the rights of the insured? How should the Commercial Code be modernized to settle this discussion?
