A. What requisites must concur in order that such stipulation may be enforced?
Answer:
Answer: The “acceptance does not have to be in any particular form, even when the
stipulation is for the third person an act of liberality or generosity on the part of the promissor
or promisee.” It may be implied from the demand for the performance of the stipulation. “It
need not be made expressly and formally. Notification of acceptance, other than such as is
involved in the making of demand, is unnecessary.”. A stipulation pour autrui may be
accepted any time before it is revoked, unless a definite period for acceptance has been
fixed.
