CALLEJO, SR., J.
As its minimum, compensation presupposes two persons who, in their own right and as principals, are mutually indebted to each other respecting equally demandable and liquidated obligations over any of which no retention or controversy commenced and communicated in due time to the debtor exists. Compensation, be it legal or conventional, requires confluence in the parties of the characters of mutual debtors and creditors, although their rights as such creditors or their obligations as such debtors need not spring from one and the same contract or transaction.[71]
