It [payment under protest] often occurs [when] payment is demanded of a debtor who, although quite convinced he owes nothing, realizes that failure to pay would result in serious prejudice to himself. It was decided that, in such cases, the debtor may pay under protest, that is, execute the obligation while at the same time declaring that he owes nothing, and that such payment cannot therefore be taken as tacit or express recognition of the fact that payment is due or that the debt exists. ... payment under protest brings about a shifting of the burden of proof: the right of recovery arises in favour of the payer unless the person who has received the payment proves that such payment was in fact due. 1, record 1, English, - payment%20under%20protest
