A contract for the sale of a commercial lease, containing a clause giving the seller the right to repurchase the lease under specified conditions, was challenged when the seller sought to exercise this right, which the buyer contested by arguing the clause was a disguised loan. The court rejected the appeal, affirming that the trial court correctly found that the contract, despite the repurchase clause, constituted a genuine sale of the leasehold right and not a loan, as the essential element of the sale—the transfer of ownership for a price—was clearly present, making the repurchase option a valid and enforceable contractual stipulation.
