Mont. Code § 28-1-1105

Current through the 2023 Regular Session
Section 28-1-1105 - When partial performance extinguishes part of obligation

Partial performance of an indivisible obligation extinguishes a corresponding proportion of the obligation if the benefit of the performance is voluntarily retained by the creditor, but not otherwise. If the partial performance is of such a nature that the creditor cannot avoid retaining it without injuring the creditor's own property, the retention is not presumed to be voluntary.
