Seller v. Buyer (Conformity Certificates and Payment)
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAA seller sued a buyer for the price of goods delivered, but the buyer refused payment, claiming the goods were defective and that the seller had failed to provide the necessary conformity certificates. The court rejected the seller's appeal, reasoning that while the general rule is that the mere delivery of goods is sufficient to demand payment, this obligation is conditional upon the seller fulfilling ancillary obligations, such as providing documents essential for the proper use or commercialization of the goods, meaning the lack of the required conformity certificates justified the buyer's refusal to pay the outstanding price.
