A tenant, having taken possession of an apartment under a lease providing for a specific rent, subsequently refused to pay the increase demanded by the landlord based on a clause in the lease stipulating rent adjustment based on the official index, arguing that the adjustment clause was illegal because it failed to comply with specific legal requirements regarding rent indexing; the Court of Cassation quashed the lower court's decision that upheld the rent increase, reasoning that the contractual clause adjusting the rent based on the official index was null and void because it did not strictly adhere to the mandatory legal procedures governing rent revision indices, rendering the stipulated increase inapplicable.
