Key legal question
Whether an erroneously recorded absence of objection on the creditor’s duplicate of a payment order extinguishes a timely and valid objection.
Extracted holding
No. A timely objection remains legally effective; the incorrect official entry is only evidence and may be rebutted.
Extracted reasoning
The Court held that the official certification on the payment order has evidentiary value only, albeit full probative force as to its content. However, its inaccuracy may be proven by other evidence. Here, the lower authorities had correctly found from the later explanations of the debt enforcement officer that the debtor had objected in time.
