Article 473 

Limitation of a suit claiming the amount of the check does not prevent the holder from claiming for the same and asking the drawer (who did not submit in return of fulfilment or duly did submit but refunded it totally or partially) to return what enriched him unjustly. This rule is applied to the drawer in case persons who committed to fulfil the check (obligors) revert to him.
