A party contracted to purchase property but failed to pay the full price by the agreed-upon deadline, whereupon the seller initiated proceedings to resolve the sale, seeking the contract's termination due to the purchaser's non-performance and claiming damages. The court upheld the lower court's decision to dissolve the sale and order compensation, reasoning that the delay in payment constituted a material breach justifying termination, especially since the contract contained an explicit clause rendering the sale null and void immediately upon failure to meet the payment term, a clause the buyer failed to invoke effectively to save the contract.
