A party contracted with another for the sale of property, which necessitated the fulfillment of certain prior obligations by the seller, and when these obligations were not met by the stipulated deadline, the buyer sought to have the sale voided, arguing the condition was potestative (dependent solely on the seller's will) and therefore void under civil law; the court, however, ruled that the condition was not purely potestative because the fulfillment of the prior obligations depended on external factors and the will of a third party, thus the contract was valid and the buyer's claim for rescission was rejected.
