A contract for the sale of land was executed, but the buyer failed to pay the agreed price, leading the seller to initiate an action for rescission of the sale and damages. The lower court rejected the seller's claim, finding that the seller had not formally put the buyer in default, which is a prerequisite for demanding rescission for non-payment in a contract of sale. The Supreme Court upheld this decision, reasoning that the formal notice of default is necessary to trigger the right to judicially seek rescission of the sale due to the buyer's failure to execute the payment obligation stipulated in the contract.
