A lower court incorrectly dismissed a claim for the nullity of a stipulation for the benefit of a third party, which had been agreed upon in a contract for the sale of real property, based solely on the fact that the third party had not been explicitly named in the deed, even though the existence of a clear and unequivocal designation of the intended beneficiary could be inferred from the context and surrounding circumstances known to the contracting parties; the highest court quashed the decision, holding that the lower court failed to properly assess the evidence regarding the third party's identifiable interest as intended by the contracting parties, thus violating the principle allowing for the validity of stipulations for the benefit of a third party where the beneficiary is clearly determinable.
