Cap. 16 Art. 1150Where payment transfers the property of the thing.

(1) Where the payment has for its object the transfer to the creditor of the property of the thing paid, such payment shall not be valid unless it is made by the person who is the owner of the thing.

(2) Nevertheless, the payment of a sum of money, or of some other thing which is consumed by use, cannot be recovered from the creditor who has consumed such sum or thing in good faith, although the payment has been made by a person who was not the owner of the money or thing.
