The transfer of a contract position
Right: The transfer of a legal right is an “Assignment”
Duty: The transfer of a legal duty is a “Delegation”
A right may be legally assigned so long as the Duty correlative to that right is not made more burdensome for the Obigor

*Section Code 1559
“A contract made expressly (addressed, for the purpose) for the benefit of a third person, may be enforced by him at any time before the parties thereto rescind it.”
“The question of whether a third party is a done, creditor, or incidental beneficiary is a question of construction and the intent must be gathered from reading the contract as a whole under the light of the circumstances under which it was entered. The test is whether an intent to benefit the third party appeared from the terms of contract.”

Civil Code 1589
“A voluntary acceptance of the benefit of a transaction is equivalent to a consent to all the obligations arising from it, so far as the facts are known, or ought to be known, to the person accepting.”
