1874. Where the lessor brings an action against the lessee, the sublessee is not bound towards the lessor for any amount except the rent for the sublease which he owes to the lessee; the sublessee may not set up advance payments.
Payments made by the sublessee either under a stipulation that is included in his lease and has been made known to the lessor, or in accordance with the usage of the place, are not considered to be advance payments.
