The Supreme Court accepted the cassation appeal to review the lower court's judgment on rent payment disputes. The tenant argued that the landlord's failure to maintain the property justified withholding rent, while the landlord claimed the tenant had no legal ground for non-payment. The court decided to proceed with the case to clarify whether the specific breach constituted a valid defense against the rent obligation.
