Court dismisses appeal on pre-contractual damages, ruling deposit return claims do not expire under Art. 390 § 3 k.c.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe 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.
