Questão jurídica principal
Whether the buyer’s earlier action to invalidate the contract prevented reliance on the contract in this suit
Decisão extraída
No. The parties were found to have ratified the contract by their later conduct, so no consent defect barred enforcement.
Fundamentação extraída
The seller accepted the buyer’s performance-based position and did not oppose the case being decided before the annulment action; the prior invalidation attempt did not negate the later ratification.
