A party sought to annul a contract for the sale of land, claiming the seller failed to fulfill a pre-sale agreement to complete a prerequisite boundary survey before the final deed was executed; however, the court upheld the lower court's decision refusing annulment, reasoning that the specific provision regarding the survey was an obligation of means, not an obligation of result, and since the seller had demonstrated a good faith effort to obtain the survey without being at fault for its ultimate absence at the time of the sale, the contract remained valid.
