GR. No. 178312, 30 January 2013
Issue: Whether or not the appeal pending in the Supreme Court should be
dismissed.
Held: Yes. The said agreement was found to have complied with Art. 2028 of
the Civil Code, thus was deemed to be a judicial compromise clearly
exhibited in the intentions of both parties to end their pending
litigation by settling their dispute. Moreover, as per aforementioned
provision, had the objective been to avoid litigation, such would be
deemed extrajudicial.
