Cap. 16 Art. 1402Saleotherwisethan ad mensuram.

In all other cases, whether the sale is in respect of a specified and limited or whether it is in respect of distinct corpus, and separate tenements, or whether, in the sale, the measure is first stated, or the corpus is first mentioned followed by an indication of the measure, the indication of the measure will not entitle the seller to any increase of price in respect of any excess in such measure, nor the buyer to any diminution of price in respect of any deficiency in such measure, unless the difference between the actual measure and that stated in the contract is more than one-twentieth whether in excess of or below the value of all the things sold:

Provided that no claim may be enforced for an increase or a diminution of the price, notwithstanding that the difference is more than one-twentieth, whether in excess of or below the aforesaid value, if the thing was sold by judicial auction or if it was expressly stipulated that there should be no warranty as to quantity or if the thing was sold saving, where the sale was not made by tale quale, judicial auction, any remedy allowed in law in case of lesion.
