Questão jurídica principal
Whether the buyers' warranty claims for defects in the construction contracts were time-barred under Art. 371(2) CO.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The five-year limitation period began on 30 November 2000 and expired on 30 November 2005, with no interruptive acts shown before then.
Fundamentação extraída
The contracts did not derogate from the statutory regime. The relevant starting point was one month after delivery because no joint inspection at reception was established.
