without
jurisdiction is a total nullity and may be
struck down at any time, even on appeal;
the only exception is when the party
raising the issue is barred by estoppel.
How is jurisdiction over the subject matter
determined?
It is a settled rule that jurisdiction over the
subject matter is determined by the
allegations of the complaint whether or
not the plaintiff is entitled to his claims
asserted therein.
Note: Where a complaint seeking for the payment
of 1 million is filed in the RTC, but after
considering the evidence presented, the amount
owing to the plaintiff is only 300,000, an amount
within the jurisdiction of the MTC if originally
filed, the RTC has authority to render judgment on
the lesser amount.
The above rule does not apply in the reverse.
Where a complaint for the recovery of a loan of
300,000 is filed in the MTC, but after
consideration of the evidence, it is shown that the
amount recoverable is 1 million, an amount within
the jurisdiction of the RTC, the MTC cannot
render judgment for 1 million for want of
jurisdiction.
What is the doctrine of primary jurisdiction?
Under the doctrine of primary jurisdiction,
courts will not resolve a controversy
involving a question which is within the
jurisdiction of an administrative tribunal,
especially where the question demands the
exercise
of
sound
administrative
discretion
requiring
the
special
knowledge, experience and services of the
administrative tribunal to determine
technical and intricate matters of fact.
