A litigant sought to annul a contract based on an alleged error concerning the identity of a contracting party, arguing this error was essential to their consent, but the lower court rejected this claim, finding that the purported error was not substantial enough to vitiate the consent of the party alleging the mistake, as the contractual performance remained essentially the same regardless of the precise identity of the counterparty, leading the high court to uphold the dismissal of the annulment action.
