Abstract

José sold a car to his neighbors Diego and Ana, who are married under a universal property regime. The couple acquired the vehicle through a purchase and sale agreement for R$100,000.00, payable in 20 monthly installments of R$5,000.00. They were able to pay the vehicle on time up until the 17th installment, but were in default on the last three. In view of the above, Mr. José filed a lawsuit to terminate the contract, and the couple was served with a summons. Upon reading the initial petition, they observed that the requests were for the termination of the contract, the return of the vehicle, the conviction of Diego and Ana to pay a fine of 70% and also the search and seizure, and also the application of clause 13 of the contract, which stated: “In the event of unjustified non-payment of any of the 20 (twenty) monthly installments of R$5,000.00, the contract will be terminated, the vehicle must be returned to the seller, and the installments not yet paid will be due in advance and a fine of 70% (seventy percent) will be applied to this amount, due to the seller.”
