X,Y and Z are partners of software business jointly promise to pay Rs.30, 000 to A. Over a period of time Y became insolvent, but his assets are sufficient to pay one-forth of his debts. Z is compelled to pay the whole. Decide whether Z is required to pay whole amount himself to A in discharging joint promise?
A can recover from any one or all of them except y (restricted to the realised value of his estate).
ReplyDeleteif any one of them has paid the amount, then he can recover the amount from other partner, and the insolvency of y has to be beared by the remaining partners
no Z can not require to pay whole amount to A.he is liable to the amount after that amount of Y's assets realise & then half of it.
