A lower court found a debtor liable for damages following a failed contractual obligation to deliver a specific good, a decision the higher court overturned by reasoning that the obligation was not one of means but of result, and the debtor, having proven the failure to deliver was due to a cause entirely external to them, could not be held responsible for the resulting breach of contract.
