Commentaries: Art. 788

The debtor may request redemption of the real burden by agreement, and also:
if the beneficiary fails to abide by the agreement establishing the real burden;
if the real burden has been in existence for thirty years, even where a longer duration or a charge in perpetuity was agreed.
If the debtor wishes to redeem the charge after thirty years, he or she must in every case give notice of termination one year in advance.
The real burden may not be redeemed in such manner if it is linked with a perpetual easement.
