Cap. 16 Art. 1583Remission or abatement when granted cannot be recalled.

If, during the continuance of the lease, the lessor has granted to the lessee the remission of the rent of one year, or an abatement thereof, in consideration of the loss sustained in such year, he may not demand the payment of the amount remitted, even though on striking a balance as provided in article 1581 it shall appear that the lessee during the years following such remission or abatement has made a profit corresponding to or even exceeding such loss, unless the lessor in granting the remission or abatement shall have reserved to himself such right.
