Property Sale Contract Voidability Appeal Regarding Superficial Area
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAA defendant, having been ordered by a lower court to pay damages to the plaintiff for a breach of contract related to the sale of a property, appealed on the grounds that the contract was voidable due to error regarding the essential qualities of the property, specifically its superficial area as described in the deed. The Court of Cassation rejected the appeal, affirming that an error concerning the precise superficial area of a property, when the sale was conducted by descriptive boundaries and specifications without explicit reference to the exact area as an essential condition that would have prevented the sale had it been known to be false, does not constitute a sufficient basis for voiding the sale under contract law, as the primary object of the sale was the property itself as delineated.
