3. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) |
LESION, contracts. In the civil law this term is used to signify the injury
suffered, in consequence of inequality of situation, by one who does not
receive a full equivalent for what he gives in a commutative contract.
2. The remedy given for this injury, is founded on its being the effect
of implied error or imposition; for in every commutative contract,
equivalents are supposed to be given and received. Louis. Code, 1854.
Persons of full age, however, are not allowed in point of law to object to
their agreements as being injurious, unless the injury be excessive. Poth.
Oblig. P. 1, c. 1, s. 1, art. 3, Sec. 4. But minors are admitted to
restitution, not only against any excessive inequality, but against any
inequality whatever. Poth. Oblig. P. 1, c. 1, s. 1, art. 3, Sec. 5; Louis.
Code, art. 1858.
3. Courts of chancery relieve upon terms of redemption and set aside
contracts entered into by expectant heirs dealing for their expectancies, on
the ground of mere inadequacy of price. 1 Vern. 167; 2 Cox, 80; 2 Cas. in
