Guarantors may be able to restrict liability by relying on the customary law defences of:

i) "droit de discussion" - whereby a creditor must have recourse to the assets of the principal debtor before the creditor has recourse to the property of the guarantor.

ii) "droit de division" - a creditor must divide the demand for the debt amongst the coguarantors in just proportions.

It is usual for a creditor to require a guarantor or guarantors to waive or abandon these "droits" when entering into a guarantee arrangement.

RIGHT OF DIVISION, Scottish law. The right which each of several cautioners (sureties) has to refuse to answer for more than his own share of the debt. To entitle the cautioner to this right, the other cautioners must be solvent, and there must be no words in the bond to exclude it. 1 Bell's Com. 347, 5th ed.
