English Definition
A debt relationship in which several debtors are obliged together for a single, undivided performance belonging to all of them, which the creditor as a rule demands from the debtors together. It differs from a joint and several obligation in that the creditor cannot hold a single debtor answerable alone for the whole. In drafting, whether an obligation is joint or joint and several turns on the express words of the contract rather than a rule of construction; where several liability is not written out in multi-party project contracts, the default reading in many legal systems treats the performance as joint and narrows the creditor's recourse.
