Tenant's Preemption Right and Formal Notification Requirements in Property Sale

A lower court had ruled that a contract for the sale of a building, subject to a right of preemption in favor of a tenant, was null because the seller had not correctly notified the tenant of the sale conditions, as the required official notice form was not used, and the tenant had exercised their right within the legal timeframe upon learning of the sale through other means. The high court rejected the appeal, reasoning that the absence of the prescribed formal notification did not automatically void the sale, provided the tenant was otherwise informed of the sale and exercised their right of preemption within the statutory period, thereby validating the nullity judgment based on the timely exercise of the right after learning of the transfer.
