Sale Termination Due to Failure to Meet Building Permit Condition Precedent
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAA contract for the sale of land was signed under a condition precedent that the buyer obtain the necessary building permits, and the buyer failed to secure these permits within the agreed timeframe, leading the seller to demand termination of the sale. The court upheld the lower court's decision to grant the termination, reasoning that the buyer's failure to fulfill the clearly stipulated suspensive condition—obtaining the permits—within the allotted period authorized the seller to invoke the nullity or rescission of the sale, as the condition's non-occurrence prevented the contract from becoming fully effective.
