Interruption of prescription of actions in joint obligations equally benefits or injures all the creditors or debtors.
This provision is likewise applicable with regard to the heirs of the debtor in all kinds of obligations.
In obligations in common, when the creditor does not claim from one of the debtors more than the part pertaining to him, prescription is not interrupted for that reason with regard to the other co-debtors.
