Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

In the effects of an assignment, the assignor's rights are extinguished. Hence, It is a correct statement to say that the rights of the assignee are subject to the defenses that the obligor has against the assignor. This is is to say that it is only those rights that the assignor had at the beginning that can be obtained by the assignee.
