Cap. 16 Art. 1348Sale of things by weight, etc.

(1) Nevertheless, where movables are not sold in bulk but by weight, number or measure, the sale is not complete in that the property does not pass to the buyer and the things sold remain at the seller’s risk, until they are weighed, counted or measured.

(2) The buyer, however, may demand that the things be weighed, counted or measured and delivered to him, or, in case of non-performance of the obligation, payment of damages.

(3) The seller may also compel the buyer to perform his obligation or, in default, to pay damages.

(4) The provisions of this article shall also apply where the thing sold is an immovable and cannot exactly be determined before it is measured.
