Things movable by disposition of the law are such as obligations and actions, the object of which is to recover money due or movables by their nature, although such obligations are accompanied with a mortgage; obligations which have for their object a specific performance, and those which from their nature carry with them an indemnization for damages; shares or interests in banks or companies of commerce, industries, or any other speculation, although such companies be possessed of immovables depending upon such enterprises. Such shares or interests are considered as movables with respect to every member of an association during the time of its existence; but if the association be dissolved, the right which any of its members may have to claim the division of the immovables or a participation therein, shall produce an immovable action.
