Full Liability of Heirs Denied the Benefit of Competence

Notes

1. §42.1.25.prpossunt — The subject of the plural verb possunt is heredes. Because the personal privilege of being condemned only to the extent of one's capacity (beneficium competentiae) does not pass to the heirs, they are bound for the whole amount rather than merely what they themselves can perform (in id quod facere possunt).
2. §42.1.25.prin integrum — The phrase usually means "to the original state" (as in restitution), but here it contrasts with the preceding non in id, quod facere possunt and is used to mean "for the whole amount" or "for the entire liability", synonymous with in solidum.
