Généré par l'IA

A dispute arose regarding a contract where one party, having failed to pay a stipulated deposit, subsequently sought to enforce the contract, claiming the deposit was non-essential, which the lower court rejected. The high court upheld this ruling, reasoning that a stipulated deposit, unless explicitly stated otherwise, constitutes a substantive condition of the formation of the contract, and therefore, the failure to pay the deposit prevents the contract from being perfected, justifying the refusal to compel execution.
