The Court of Appeal dismissed the defendants' appeal against the lower court's judgment ordering the return of a deposit. The plaintiff claimed the deposit should be returned after the seller failed to conclude a formal sale agreement, while the defendants argued the claim was time-barred under the new provisions of the Civil Code. The court held that a claim for the return of a deposit is distinct from pre-contractual damages and therefore does not fall under the specific limitation period rules of Article 390 § 3 of the Civil Code.
