## Issue

* WHETHER OR NOT THE AUTHENTICITY AND DUE EXECUTION OF THE SPA AND DEED OF ABSOLUTE SALE HAVE BEEN SUFFICIENTLY ESTABLISHED.

## Info

"In imputing discrepancy in the signatures appearing in the SPA and the Deed of Sale, Spouses xxx should have conducted an examination of the signatures before the court. Evidently, the foregoing testimonial and documentary evidence adduced by Spouses xxx does not suffice the requirement needed to show the genuineness of handwriting as set forth by Section 22 of Rule 132 of the Rules of Court. A comparison of both the differences and similarities in the questioned signatures should have been made to satisfy the demands of evidence."

"Lastly, the Court does not agree with the RTC's finding that the sale was void because the subject property was conjugal at the time Carolina sold it to the respondent. Article 160 of the Civil Code provides that all property of the marriage is presumed to belong to the conjugal partnership, unless it be proved that it pertains exclusively to the husband or to the wife. However, the presumption under said article applies only when there is proof that the property was acquired during the marriage. Proof of acquisition during the marriage is an essential condition for the operation of the presumption in favor of the conjugal partnership."

"Lastly, the other issues raised by Spouses xxx, specifically their failure to receive the demand letter and the lack of prior conciliation proceeding before the barangay, are contradicted by the evidence on record. As found by the MeTC, the respondent tried to have a copy of the demand letter personally delivered to Spouses xxx on August 5, 2005 but the latter refused to receive the same, thus, the respondent left a copy of the demand letter in the premises. Similarly, the Certificate to File Action issued by the Punong Barangay suffices to prove that the case was referred to the barangay for possible conciliation. "

## Decision

WHEREFORE, the petition is DENIED. The Decision dated March 30, 2010 and Resolution dated September 1, 2010 of the Court of Appeals in CA-G.R. SP No. 108220 are AFFIRMED.

**New SC chief justice bares plans for judiciary**

 "First of all, may I stress that as the 26th chief justice of the Supreme Court and as a longtime public servant, I will lead by example. Secondly, to achieve our goals and aspirations, each and everyone in the judiciary must be guided by this motto which should follow by heart: Let us be united and let us follow the rules,"
"Clerks of court will be required to conduct periodic inventory of all the cases pending in their divisions and consult with the court en banc as to how to solve the issue of backlog and other concerns,"
"All other courts must continue to comply with existing rules and guidelines pertaining to prescribed periods for trial dates, including promulgation of decisions and other rules geared towards the realization of a speedy disposition of cases,"
His other agenda are as follows:

* Implementation of duly approved revised rules of court and the continuous revision of the rules of court and other rules of procedure to be more responsive to the needs of court users, and for the Philippine judicial academy to focus on skills-based training for judges and court personnel;
* Automation of court processes and incorporation of technology in hearings and trials;
* Cleaning up of misfits from the judiciary;
* Improving the security of justices, judges and halls of justice;
* Setting up 24/7 help desks in the office of the chief justice and other offices;
* Monitoring of performance in all courts especially for the observance of the rules;
* Improvement of procurement and bidding processes for faster and more timely implementation of projects;
* Creation of strategy planning management unit under the Program Management Office. This is for the organized planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of court projects.

## Issues

The elements of trafficking in persons can be derived from its definition under Section 3 (a) of Republic Act No. 9208, thus:

(1) The act of "recruitment, transportation, transfer or harbouring, or receipt of persons with or without the victim's consent or knowledge, within or across national borders."

(2) The means used which include "threat or use of force, or other forms of coercion, abduction, fraud, deception, abuse of power or of position, taking advantage of the vulnerability of the person, or, the giving or receiving of payments or benefits to achieve the consent of a person having control over another["]; and

(3) The purpose of trafficking is exploitation which includes "exploitation or the prostitution of others or other forms of sexual exploitation, forced labor or services, slavery, servitude or the removal or sale of organs."
The victim's consent is rendered meaningless due to the coercive, abusive, or deceptive means employed by perpetrators of human trafficking. Even without the use of coercive, abusive, or deceptive means, a minor's consent is not given out of his or her own free will.

The prosecution established that on the night of December 5, 2009, accused-appellant approached PO1 Nemenzo and offered him the sexual services of four (4) girls, two (2) of whom were minors, for P2,400.00. The police operation had been the result of previous surveillance conducted within the area by the Regional Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force. Both minor victims testified that this incident was not the first time that accused-appellant pimped them out to customers, and that any payment to them would include the payment of commission to accused-appellant

## Decisions

**WHEREFORE**, the Appeal is **DISMISSED**. The Court of Appeals October 23, 2014 Decision in CA-G.R. CEB-CR HC No. 01655 is **AFFIRMED** with **MODIFICATION**. Accused-appellant Nancy Lasaca Ramirez a.k.a "ZOY" or "SOY" is found **GUILTY**
 beyond reasonable doubt of having violated Republic Act No. 9208,
Section 4(e), as qualified by Section 6(a). She is sentenced to suffer
the penalty of life imprisonment and to pay a fine of Two Million Pesos
(P2,000,000.00). She is further ordered to pay Five Hundred Thousand
Pesos (P500,000.00) as moral damages and One Hundred Thousand Pesos
(P100,000.00) as exemplary damages to each of the minor victims, AAA and
 BBB.
Columns

*"Columns is a puzzle game, similar to Tetris in some ways, but still bringing a new experience of gameplay. It can definitely be difficult for some, or easier for others; I find myself struggling with adapting to the quick pace of speed in the arcade mode, but the original mode I can get pretty far with. I would say the newer Columns games are probably worth investing more time into, but the original isn't too bad either."*

## Issues

These subject matters and how they prepare or educate their ministers
are ecclesiastical in nature which the State cannot regulate unless
there is clear violation of secular laws. It follows, therefore, that
even his alleged exclusion as instructor is beyond the power of review
by the State considering that this is purely an ecclesiastical affair.
It is up to the members of the religious congregation to determine
whether their minister still lives up to the beliefs they stand for,
continues to share his knowledge, and remains an exemplar of faith to
the members of their church.

Respondent's claim of illegal dismissal is dependent on the existence of the employer-employee relationship.

## Info

Article 274 of the Labor Code, as amended, qualifies Article 259(i):

> [V]iolations of a Collective Bargaining Agreement, *except those which are gross in character*, shall no longer be treated as unfair labor practice and shall be resolved as grievances under the Collective Bargaining Agreement. For purposes of this article, gross violations of Collective Bargaining Agreement shall mean *flagrant and/or malicious refusal* to comply with the *economic provisions* of such agreement.
>
>

In *Silva v. National Labor Relations Commission*,[322]

 we held that for there to be unfair labor practice, the violation of the Collective Bargaining Agreement must be gross and must be related to the Agreement's economic provisions. Here, Dawal, et al. charge PAL of violating the provisions on Job Security in the Collective Bargaining Agreement, which are non-economic in nature. Thus, PAL's acts do not constitute unfair labor practice under Article 259(i) of the Labor Code.

"Finally, aside from reinstatement with backwages, illegally dismissed employees are entitled to interest at the legal rate. In view of our ruling in *Nacar v. Gallery Frames* and the existing temporary restraining order on the Court of Appeals Decision, the rate of legal interest shall be 6% per annum beginning from the date of promulgation of this judgment until fully paid."

## Decision

**WHEREFORE**, the Petition is **DENIED**. The Court of Appeals' July 21, 2004 Decision and July 28, 2006 Resolution in CA-G.R. SP No. 73030 are **AFFIRMED with MODIFICATION**. Judgment is rendered in favor of xxx, xxx, and xxx:

All other claims are dismissed.

## Issue

* Whether there was a valid promulgation of judgment by Judge Buted in her prior Decision of conviction
* Whether Judge Soluren's subsequent judgment of acquittal is valid
* Whether a special civil action for certiorari under Rule 65 is the proper remedy to question a decision of acquittal

## Info

Two Decisions were promulgated by the trial court in this case: the
first one for conviction, and the second for acquittal. We are called
upon to resolve the procedural question of whether the promulgation *in absentia* of the earlier judgment of conviction was valid.

Judge Buted's Decision convicting respondent was validly promulgated.

Judge Soluren's Decision acquitting respondent is void and has no legal effect.

Double jeopardy is not triggered when the order of acquittal is void.

## Decision

**WHEREFORE**, the foregoing Petition is **GRANTED**. The assailed Decision of the Court of Appeals in CA-G.R. SP No. 97629 dated 22 March 2010 and Resolution dated 30 July 2010 are **REVERSED** and **SET ASIDE**.

 The Decision of Branch 40 of the Regional Trial Court of Palayan City, Nueva Ecija dated 31 October 2006 and Order dated 18 April 2006, rendered by public respondent Judge Corazon D. Soluren acquitting respondent xxx, are likewise **REVERSED** and **SET ASIDE** for having been issued with grave abuse of discretion amounting to lack or excess of jurisdiction. The Decision dated 22 December 2005 rendered by Judge Erlinda P. Buted is REINSTATED.

 The Court of Appeals is hereby ordered to conduct the mandatory and automatic review of the Decision dated 22 December 2005 pursuant to Sections 3 and 10, Rule 122 of the Rules of Court. Let the entire records of Criminal Case No. 1066-P entitled *People of the Philippines v. Pepito Gonzales* be immediately **TRANSMITTED** to the Court of Appeals.

 The bail granted to respondent xxx is **CANCELLED**. Let copies of this Decision be furnished the Director of the National Bureau of Investigation and the Director-General of the Philippine National Police. The National Bureau of Investigation and the Philippine National Police are hereby **DIRECTED** to cause the **IMMEDIATE ARREST** and **DETENTION** of respondent xxx.

Judith Ortega Vs. People of the Philippines G.R. No. 177944, December 24, 2008

Chico-Nazario

## Issues

WHETHER OR NOT THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS ERRED IN AFFIRMING THE DECISION OF THE REGIONAL TRIAL COURT INSPITE OF THE FACT THAT THE EVIDENCE ON RECORD COULD NOT SUPPORT CONVICTION.

Inasmuch as the amount of P27,450.00 is more than the benchmark of P22,000.00 provided under Article 315 of the Revised Penal Code, the maximum period of prision mayor minimum (6 years, 8 months and 21 days to 8 years) is applicable. Applying the Indeterminate Sentence Law, the minimum penalty is prision correccional in its minimum and medium periods, in any of its periods, the range of which is from six (6) months and one (1) day to four (4) years and two (2) months, which is the penalty next lower in degree than the basic penalty.  The period of 1 year 8 months and 21 days of prision correccional, the minimum period imposed, is within this range.

Ortega bewails the penalty of eight (8) years, claiming it is simply too
 harsh, considering the amount involved. Ortega pleads that this penalty
 will make her ineligible for probation and will have the effect of
having her ten (10) children, the youngest being only three (3) years
old, orphaned.

We are aware of Ortega's extreme predicament, but
this Court has no alternative but to apply the law.  As harsh and as
painful its effects may be, *dura lex, sed lex*.  The law is harsh, but it is the law.

## Decision

**WHEREFORE**, premises considered, the petition for review is hereby **DENIED.**
 The Decision of the Court of Appeals in CA-G.R. 00241, which sustained
the conviction of accused-appellant Judith P. Ortega for the crime of *Estafa* in Criminal Case No. CBU-53833, is hereby **AFFIRMED.**

Take the TARDIS back to Doctor Who Books 1987

## Novelisations

Target Books' Doctor Who output in 1988 for the first time offered a new novelisation each month. As had become usual over the last few years, the stories featured a wide range of Doctors. After a year's absence, the Sixth Doctor returned to the range. Most of The Trial of a Time Lord was published, with the exception of Mindwarp.

Meanwhile the then-current Doctor made his Target debut, alongside releases featuring the First, Second, Third and Fifth Doctors. Midway through the year, Target changed its cover design to give a unified "look" to their line. Accordingly, they switched to the Seventh Doctor's televised logo and gave the tops of the covers black framing elements. **Source** tardis.wikia.com.

Hence, the present Petition for Certiorari submitting the following issues for resolution:
I. WHETHER OR NOT [THE CA] COMMITTED GRAVE ABUSE OF DISCRETION IN REVERSING THE RULINGS OF THE REGIONAL TRIAL COURT AND MUNICIPAL TRIAL COURT IN CITIES, THEREBY AWARDING MORAL AND EXEMPLARY DAMAGES TO PRIVATE RESPONDENT.
II. WHETHER OR NOT [THE CA] COMMITTED GRAVE ABUSE OF DISCRETION IN AWARDING PRIVATE RESPONDENT WITH ATTORNEY'S FEES.

* The Court reminds petitioner, as it has consistently reminded countless other litigants, that the invocation of substantial justice is not a magic potion that automatically compels the Court to set aside technical rules. A petition for certiorari under Rule 45 must be filed within 15 days from notice of the judgment, final order or resolution appealed from; or of the denial of petitioner's motion for reconsideration filed in due time after notice of the judgment. In this case, petitioner received the CA Resolution denying her motion for reconsideration on June 19, 2017 and filed the instant petition 46 days later or on August 4, 2017, by which time she had already lost her appeal under Rule 45.

* Time and again, we have stressed that procedural rules do not exist for the convenience of the litigants; the rules were established primarily to provide order to, and enhance the efficiency of, our judicial system. While procedural rules are liberally construed, the provisions on reglementary periods are strictly applied, indispensable as they are to the prevention of needless delays, and are necessary to the orderly and speedy discharge of judicial business. The timeliness of filing a pleading is a jurisdictional caveat that even this Court cannot trifle with.

## Overview

In the instant case, the Court finds trustworthy the straightforward testimony of AAA that it was the accused-appellant who forcibly had carnal knowledge of her on that fateful afternoon of February 14, 1995. AAA detailed with sufficient clarity how she was sexually abused by the accused- appellant. We keep in mind the well-entrenched doctrine that the testimonies of child victims are given full weight and credit, for when a woman or a girl-child says that she has been raped, she says in effect all that is necessary to show that rape was indeed committed. Youth and immaturity are generally badges of truth and sincerity. The testimony of AAA was further bolstered by the medical findings of Dr. Plaza who attested to the presence of "deep, hymenal notches at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions" in AAA's organ, which led the physician to conclude that it was indeed possible that AAA was sexually abused. BBB, the younger sister of AAA, likewise pointed to the accused-appellant as the perpetrator of the dastardly act against AAA.

Discrepancies referring only to minor details and collateral matters — not to the central fact of the crime — do not affect the veracity or detract from the essential credibility of witnesses' declarations, as long as these are coherent and intrinsically believable 'on' the whole. The Court has recognized that even the most candid of witnesses make erroneous, confused or inconsistent statements, especially when they are young and easily overwhelmed by the atmosphere in the courtroom. It would be too much to expect a 14-year-old to remember each detail of her harrowing experience.

## Issues

* THE TRIAL COURT GRAVELY ERRED IN CONVICTING ACCUSED-APPELLANT OF THE CRIME CHARGED BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT.
* THE TRIAL COURT GRAVELY ERRED IN GIVING FULL CREDENCE TO THE EVIDENCE OF THE PROSECUTION AND [DISREGARDING] THE EVIDENCE OF THE ACCUSED-APPELLANT.

## Decision

**WHEREFORE**, the appeal is **DENIED**. The Decision dated August 31, 2007 of the Court of Appeals in CA-G.R. CEB CR.-H.C. No. 00394 is **AFFIRMED WITH MODIFICATION** that the award of exemplary damages is increased to P30,000.00.

Velasco

## Issues

Petitioner Carrera would assert at every turn that the prosecution has failed to prove that he employed force upon AAA in committing the alleged assault, adding in this regard that there is total absence of physical evidence to corroborate AAA's claim of use of force against her. According to him, the absence of defensive wounds and lack of proof of resistance of AAA while the purported assault was taking place show that there was voluntariness on her part.

While AAA's testimony alone is sufficient to sustain the petitioner's conviction, the prosecution saw fit to present her mother to testify seeing her daughter, during the fateful night, half-naked, without any underwear, with mud all over her body and blood covering her legs, indicating that she has been molested. Of course AAA's allegation of sexual abuse finds collaboration too from the Medico-Legal Certificate issued by Dr. Icamina, who declared that the fresh and complete hymenal laceration found in AAA's external genitalia suggests that some object was inserted in her private part.

## Info

"In this case, the Court takes into consideration Engr. xxx' long years of service in the Judiciary of about ten (10) years as a mitigating factor that serves to temper the penalty to be imposed on him. Thus, instead of imposing the penalty of dismissal, we hold that the penalty of suspension for two (2) years without pay is proper and commensurate."

## Issues

The issues for this Court's resolution are as follows: (1) whether the Sandiganbayan has jurisdiction over the properties; (2) whether the Malacañang Collection can be the subject of the forfeiture case; (3) whether forfeiture is justitied under R.A. 1379; (4) whether the Sandiganbayan correctly ruled that the Motion for Partial Summary Judgment was not inconsistent with the Request for Admission; and (5) whether the Sandiganbayan conectly declared that the forfeiture was not a deprivation of petitioners' right to due process of law.

## Ruling

* They allege that they were denied due process by not being given any opportunity to prove their lawful acquisition of the Malacañang Collection. This allegation cannot be given credence for being utterly baseless.
* The complete records of Civil Case No. 0141 - a total of 35 volumes along with 2 envelopes containing exhibits and 1 envelope containing the transcripts of stenographic notes - have been forwarded to this Court by the Sandiganbayan. Pertinent parts of these documents annexed to the 1991 Petition, along with the other pleadings filed before the Sandiganbayan relative to the present petitions, have also been extensively quoted and reproduced verbatim in this resolution. The purpose is not only to provide a clearer statement of the factual antecedents, but also to confirm the veracity of the reference to these documents and to equally dispel any doubt regarding them.

## Decisions

**WHEREFORE**, premises considered, the assailed Partial Summary
Judgment dated 13 January 2014 and Resolution dated 11 June 2014
rendered by the Sandiganbayan in Civil Case No. 0141 are **AFFIRMED**.
