Contractual Breach vs. Resolutory Condition in Property Sale

The case involved a contractual dispute where one party, claiming failure to perform a mandated renovation to a property, sought termination of the sale and restitution of the price, arguing that the obligation to renovate was a condition precedent to the sale's full execution. The Court of Cassation rejected the appeal, affirming the lower court's finding that the contractual clause concerning the renovation obligation, though imposing a duty, did not explicitly establish a resolutory condition making the sale void upon non-compliance; rather, the failure to perform merely constituted a breach allowing for a claim for damages or specific performance, but not automatic nullification of the underlying sale agreement.
