The dispute arose from a contract for the sale of an immovable property where the buyer, after signing a preliminary agreement, discovered a pre-existing right of way affecting the property's use, which was not disclosed by the seller, leading the buyer to seek nullification of the sale; the court, however, rejected the buyer's claim, reasoning that the existence of an easement, even if not explicitly declared, constitutes a visible and apparent servitude that the buyer should have discovered through ordinary inspection, and therefore the seller was not liable for fraudulent concealment under the relevant civil code provisions regarding property encumbrances.
