Where a certificate of indebtedness has been issued relating to the claim, the obligor may, besides demanding the receipt, also demand return of the certificate of indebtedness. If the obligee claims to be incapable of returning it, then the obligor may demand a publicly certified acknowledgement that the debt is extinguished.
