A Critical Blueprint about the Rules Governing the Quantity Condition and Effects of Its Infringement in the Iranian Law: Legislator's exemplification and expression of the general rule

Sometimes the quantitative condition of transaction subject-matter is deemed secondary and sometimes it is a primary element of the contract. If the quantity that parties have agreed upon is not consistent with the actual amount, then problems regarding the legal status of the contract and the rights and obligations of the parties come to play. Civil Code (Articles 355, 384 and 385) and Deeds and Immovable Registration Act (Article 149), have left the matter ambiguous and deficient which by turn has made so many discrepancies in the interpretation and construction of the aforementioned articles. In order to find a solution to these problems, it is required to distinguish between reality and the agreement, by then, the answer shall be provided by referring to the fact that whether the quantity condition falls within the partie's agreement and the reality is in fact dissoluble or indissoluble, by resorting to the general rule in each case. It has been tried in this article to remove the vagueness of the statutes by providing a general rule for the infringement of the quantitative condition of the transaction subject-matter, presenting the words of law to that rules.
