Art. 1034 a. Time limits and requirements

1 Any refusal of acceptance or of payment must be declared by public deed (protest for non-acceptance or for non-payment).

2 Protest for non-acceptance must be made within the time limit applicable for presentation for acceptance. Where, in the case of Article 1014 paragraph 1, the bill of exchange was presented for the first time on the last day of the time limit, protest may still be made on the following day.

3 In the case of bills of exchange payable on a specific day or for a certain time after they were drawn or after sight, protest for non-payment must be made on one of the two working days following the payment date. Protest for non-payment of sight bills must be made within the same time limits for protest for non-acceptance as envisaged in the previous paragraph.

4 Where protest for non-acceptance has been made, neither presentation for payment nor protest for non-payment is required.

5 Where the drawee has suspended his payments, regardless of whether he has accepted the bill of exchange or not, or compulsory execution has been levied on his assets without success, the holder may have recourse only once the bill has been presented to the drawee for payment and protest has been made.

6 Where the assets of the drawee, regardless of whether he has accepted the bill of exchange or not, or the assets of the drawer of a bill of exchange whose presentation for acceptance is prohibited are subject to insolvency proceedings, presentation of the court order commencing such proceedings is sufficient to exercise the right of recourse.

Art. 1033 1. Regresso del portatore

Il portatore può esercitare il regresso contro i giranti, il traente e gli altri obbligati:

alla scadenza, se il pagamento non ha avuto luogo;

anche prima della scadenza:

1.
se l’accettazione sia stata rifiutata in tutto o in parte;
2.
in caso di fallimento del trattario, abbia o non abbia accettato; di cessazione dei pagamenti, ancorché non constatata con sentenza; di esecuzione infruttuosa sui suoi beni;
3.
in caso di fallimento del traente di una cambiale non accettabile.

818 Nel testo tedesco, questo art. ha due capoversi. Il contenuto del secondo abbraccia il disposto incominciante con la locuzione «anche prima della scadenza…».
