TheLawofSubrogation 10510024

This chapter introduces the concept of subrogation and defines its general nature. Subrogation is defined as the substitution of one person in the place of another with reference to a lawful claim or right. It is an equitable remedy that allows a party who satisfies another's debt or obligation to assume the rights and remedies of the original creditor. The chapter provides examples of parties that may be subrogated, such as a sheriff or one who advances money to pay off a mortgage. Subrogation follows the discharge of an obligation and adds nothing to the original creditor's rights.
