A plaintiff sued a defendant to annul a contract for the sale of real estate, alleging the defendant fraudulently misrepresented the property's boundaries, claiming the actual area was significantly smaller than represented in the deed, and sought rescission of the sale and damages, but the court dismissed the appeal, holding that while the discrepancy in the measured area was established, the plaintiff had failed to prove that the discrepancy was substantial enough to constitute a fraudulent misrepresentation vitiating consent under the relevant civil code articles, as the deed itself specified the area, and the plaintiff was deemed to have accepted the property as described therein.
