1580. A creditor is in default by operation of law for not receiving payment where, without justification, he refuses a valid tender, where he refuses to act on the notice having the same effect, or where he clearly expresses his intention to refuse any tender that the debtor might wish to make; in this last case, the debtor need not make any tender or give any notice having the same effect.
A creditor is also in default by operation of law where the debtor, despite his diligence, cannot find him.
