§ 4873. Valid obligation required

Security cannot exist without a valid obligation.

Nevertheless, an obligation, the nullity of which may be claimed by virtue of an exception purely personal on the part of the obligor, as that of minority, may be the subject of security.

From the provisions of the preceding paragraph is excepted the case of a loan made to a minor not emancipated.
