Maxim 6.8.6
A thing is dissolved in the same manner by which it was created.
Eodem modo quo quid constituitur, eodem modo destruitur.
Source: 2 Rolle 21, 39; Jenk. Cent. 74; Broom, Max. 884, 891; 6 Co. 53; Weisman, 24jj
Difficulty 2/5 — Approachable
Explanation
An obligation created by words is dissolved by words; an obligation of consent is dissolved by withdrawal of consent — the remedy mirrors the creation.
Where this applies
- I created an obligation by signing a contract — how do I dissolve it?
- If consent created the relationship, can withdrawal of consent end it?
