Art. 1984. Si el arrendador, por hecho o culpa suya o de sus agentes o dependientes, es constituido en mora de entregar, tendrá derecho el arrendatario a indemnizacion de perjuicios.

Si por el retardo se disminuyere notablemente para el arrendatario la utilidad del contrato, sea por haberse deteriorado la cosa o por haber cesado las circunstancias que lo motivaron, podrá el arrendatario desistir del contrato, quedándole a salvo la indemnizacion de perjuicios, siempre que el retardo no provenga de fuerza mayor o caso fortuito.
