Why a Confession that May Terminate a Lawsuit Cannot be Delegated?

Though it is well-known in jurisprudence that a confession may be delegated, it has been stated in the Article 205 of the civil procedure of public and revolutionary courts (approved in 2000) that a confession which may terminate a lawsuit cannot be delegated. It may be asked, therefore, that "what are the fundamental reasons for doing so by the legislator?" Reasons which may be enumerated to justify the Article 205 are as follows: the one who confesses should be the main one, confession should not harm others, interests of the client should be protected, consensus of jurists, confession should only concern compositional affairs, the principle of acquittance should be observed. In the present article, the above reasons have been discussed and it is shown that they cannot justify the Article 205. It is proposed, therefore, that the above-mentioned Article should be corrected.
