Legislator summary

AI generated

The court confirmed the lower court's judgment awarding damages upon contract resolution. The plaintiff argued that the awarded sum failed to cover the full extent of their patrimonial loss and frustration of gain. The court ruled that such indemnification must restore the injured party to the position they would have occupied had the contract never existed, thereby validating the claim.

SUMÁRIO

A indemnização que se cumula com a resolução do contrato visa colocar o lesado na situação em que estaria se não tivesse sido celebrado o contrato, abrangendo quer os danos que representem uma desvalorização ou perda patrimonial, quer os que se traduzem numa não valorização ou frustração do ganho.
