Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the plaintiff was legally subrogated to the bank's rights after paying the debt secured by the pledged property
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The company was a third party within Art. 110 no. 1 CO and, after paying to release its pledged real estate, stepped into the bank's position.
Extrahierte Begründung
The corporate veil was not to be disregarded: the company and its shareholder remained legally distinct, with separate assets and accounts. The facts did not justify treating them as one person, nor did the shareholder's later statements eliminate the plaintiff's subrogation rights.
