A lessee, having obtained permission to build a structure on leased rural land, proceeded with construction that significantly altered the land's character, leading the lessor to seek termination of the lease for breach of the implied obligation to maintain the leased property in its original state, despite the lack of explicit prohibition against such alterations; the court of cassation quashed the lower court's decision to uphold the lease, reasoning that the right to use the property as stipulated in the lease does not permit the lessee to fundamentally change its nature, and substantial modification contrary to the agreed-upon purpose constitutes a serious breach justifying contract termination.
