The court confirmed the appeal, ruling that a special action is necessary to judicially fix a time limit. This procedural step is mandatory when a sales contract omits a deadline for the deed and the parties cannot agree on one. The decision establishes that judicial intervention is the only remedy in such cases of contractual silence and disagreement.
