2349. Where several persons become sureties of the same debtor for the same debt, each of them is liable for the whole debt but may invoke the benefit of division if he has not renounced it expressly in advance.
Each surety who avails himself of the benefit of division may require the creditor to divide his action and to reduce it to the amount of the share and portion of each surety.
