X-----------------------x

ORDER

Re-raffled to this Court is the record of the above-entitled case


by reason of the inhibition of Hon. Angelo C. Perez of the Regional Trial
Court Branch 27, Cabanatuan City.

After going over the records of this case, it appears that a


Warrant of Arrest dated August 22, 2017 was issued against all the
accused pursuant to the Order of the Court on August 8, 2017.
Thereafter, a Motion to Reconsider and Set Aside said Order was filed
by accused Rebecca E. Ebuen (“Ebuen”) and Eliza Banay (“Banay”). A
Motion to Lift Order of Arrest was subsequently filed by their counsel
on October 6, 2017. However, the aforementioned motions were not
ruled upon. Hence, said warrant of arrest is valid and existing. No return
of said warrant appears in the record.

Record likewise reveals that Ebuen and Banay have been


religiously attending the previous scheduled hearings indicating their
intention to participate in the disposition of this case. The Compromise
Agreement entered into by accused Ebuen and Banay on January 31,
2017 bolsters such intention.

WHEREFORE, premises considered, the Warrant of Arrest dated


August 22, 2017 is hereby lifted and set aside as against accused
Rebecca E. Ebuen and Eliza Banay. The Warrant Officer of Cabanatuan
City Police Station is hereby directed to immediately submit a Return
of said Warrant of Arrest with respect to accused Jolita B. Bautista and
to explain why said accused was not apprehended.

the same accused, they, however, transpired on different dates.

BENJIE LIGON y Palma,


Accused.
x-----------------------x

ORDER

Commonwealth Insurance Corporation, the bondsman of


the accused, filed an Extremely Urgent Motion for
Reconsideration on December 22, 2016 praying to set aside
the Order of Confiscation and the Writ of Execution issued by
the court against the bond posted by the accused. The
accused likewise prayed for the reinstatement of his bail so
that he may be able to enjoy provisional liberty under the
same bond.

The bondsman claims that the failure of the accused to


appear in the scheduled hearings of these cases was, because
of him not having been personally notified thereof and that
around two (2) weeks after he posted bail, the accused
transferred residence in order to avoid being suspected of
indulging into drugs. The accused, however, left a forwarding
address to his relatives at his former address.

Record shows that during the hearing on March 29,


2016, the accused was notified in open court of his scheduled
arraignment on June 28, 2016 as evidenced by his signature
appearing on the minutes of the session held on the said date.
On June 28, 2016 he failed to appear despite due notice;
hence, a warrant of arrest was issued against him. His
bondsman, on the other hand, was directed to produce his
person in court within thirty (30) days from receipt of the
Order and show cause why no judgment should be rendered
against his bond.

The bondsman received the copy of the Order on August


8, 2016 as shown by the Registry Return Receipt attached to
the record of these cases. However, it did not file any motion
for reconsideration of the said Order. On September 29, 2016
the court issued judgment against the full amount of the said
bond and a Writ of Execution on October 27, 2016. From this
turn of events, the claim of the bondsman that the accused
was not notified of the hearings of his cases has no leg to
stand on.

WHEREFORE, the Extremely Urgent Motion for


Reconsideration is hereby DENIED for lack of merit.

SO ORDERED.

SEVERINO DADEZ y Sacdal,


Accused.
x-----------------------------x

RESOLUTION

Private complainant NIORSKY CORPORATION, through


Private Prosecutor Gerald Vasquez, filed a Motion To Adopt
Testimony At A Former Proceeding, praying that the
testimony of Joel Roque, the duly authorized representative
of the private conmplainant, taken during the summary
hearing of the administrative case filed in 2008 against the
herein accused for Grave Misconduct before the National
Police Commission Summary Dismissal Board, docketed as SD
Case No. R3 2008 48, be adopted and admitted as testimonial
evidence of the private complainant in this case.
The motion is anchored on Section 47, Rule 130 of the
Rules of Court which provides:

“Sec. 47. Testimony or deposition at a


former proceeding. – The testimony or deposition
of a witness deceased or unable to testify, given
in a former case or proceeding, judicial or
administrative, involving the same parties and
subject matter, may be given in evidence against
the adverse party who had the opportunity to
cross-examine him.” (underscoring supplied)

The private complainant avers that despite efforts


exerted, it could not locate the whereabouts of Joel Roque and
secure his presence to testify in Court.

The accused, through counsel Wilson Chua, vehemently


opposed the motion contending that it obviously delays the
case and that the admission of the private complainant that it
cannot locate and produce their witness must be considered
failure to prosecute thereby violating speedy trial and
warranting dismissal. The opposition was based on the
grounds that the witness is neither dead nor unable to testify;
that the former administrative case does not involve the same
subject and issue as that of the instant case; and that the
accused was not given an opportunity to cross-examine the
witness in the former case and he will be denied the same
opportunity to cross-examine and confront the witness if the
latter’s testimony would be admitted.

After a circumspect evaluation of the arguments


presented by the prosecution and the defense, the Court
resolves to deny the motion.

A reading of the record shows that the reason for the


failure of Joel Roque to testify in Court is because he could
not be located anymore. This is far from the situation
contemplated in Section 47 Rule 130 which speaks of a
witness who is deceased or unable to testify. Furthermore,
the parties in the instant case are different from the
administrative case. While the private complainant in this
case is Niorsky Corporation, the complainants in the
administrative case are Joel Roque, Teofilo delos Santos and
Chito Caabay. Finally, this case is for estafa, whereas the
subject matter in the administrative case is grave misconduct;
hence, the nature and issues are different.

The quantum of evidence required in criminal cases is


greater than those in administrative cases. In criminal cases,
the guilt of the accused must be proved beyond reasonable
doubt. In administrative cases, substantial evidence is
sufficient. Furthermore, no less than the highest law of the
land, our Constitution, guarantees to an accused in criminal
cases, among others, his right to meet the witnesses against
him face to face. Admitting the testimony of Joel Roque will
defeat the right of the accused as he was not able to confront
and cross examine him in the administrative proceeding. In
fine, the Court prefers to hear the testimony of Joel Roque to
enable it to observe and determine his credibility, including
the propriety of his testimony.

WHEREFORE, the Motion To Adopt Testimony At A


Former Proceeding is hereby DENIED for lack of merit.

SO ORDERED.

RESOLUTION

A Motion To Release Motorcycle and With Undertaking

Honda motorcycle without sidecar, with Plate No. 2351RU,
under Certificate of Registration No. 10855621-0 and
impounded at the Provincial Public Safety Company (PPSC) be
released in his favor, it being a service of the family. He
further undertakes to produce and present the said
motorcycle to Court whenever required and necessary.

When the motion was heard on February 28, 2012 the


Public Prosecutor was given fifteen (15) days to make a
comment and/or objection thereto. During the hearing on
June 14, 2012 the Public Prosecutor manifested that he is not
interposing any objection to the approval of the same
provided that the accused will produce the original copy of the
Official Receipt (OR) and Certificate of Registration (CR)
showing his ownership over the subject vehicle. The Court
further ordered the accused to submit a Certification from the
PPSC to the effect that, indeed, such motorcycle is under its
custody.

On the February 19, 2013 hearing, the defense counsel


submitted the original copy of the OR and CR as required by
the Court and the Public Prosecutor admitted as faithful
reproduction the photocopy of the said documents attached
to the record of the case. Also on page 13 of the record
appears an Acknowledgement Receipt of Motorcycle/Motor
Vehicle executed by confiscating officers PO1 Diody Acosta
and PO1 Reynante Menia certifying that the subject
motorcycle is temporarily impounded at their office at the
PPSC, Burgos Avenue, Cabanatuan City.

Finding merit to the motion, therefore, the same is


hereby GRANTED. The Chief of the PPSC Cabanatuan City is
ordered to release to accused Raffy del Rosario his Honda
motorcycle with plate number 2351RU. The accused, on the
other hand, is ordered to produce and present the said
motorcycle to Court whenever required and necessary.

x---------------x

RESOLUTION

The defendant-appellee, through counsel, Atty. Feliciano


Buenaventura, filed on February 28, 2013 a Motion To Dismiss
Memorandum seeking for the dismissal of plaintiffs-
appellants’ Memorandum averring that:

1) the said Memorandum did not state the facts as


determined by the lower court;

2) appellants did not state the applicable provisions of


law relied upon by the lower court in dismissing the case;

3) the arguments and cited cases in the Memorandum


are not applicable; and

4) the Memorandum is not verified.

When the motion was heard on March 7, 2013 as


requested, Atty. Buenaventura reiterated his motion. The
plaintiffs-appellants were given fifteen (15) days from receipt
of the motion within which to make a comment and/or
objection thereto. Later in the day, the plaintiffs-appellants,
through counsel, Atty. Jose Felimon, filed their Opposition
countering that the motion is seemingly dilatory and
apprehensive that the Court would avoid requiring the
appellants to file a new complaint. They claim that:

1) an appeal is open to the scrutiny of the appellate


court, as the records lay the whole fact of the case and is not
circumscribed by what is alleged in the memorandum;

2) their memorandum deals on the basics, most


particularly on the issue of jurisdiction that became the basis
of the court a quo’s dismissal of the case; and

3) there is no need to state the facts since the court a


quo’s appreciation of the allegation of material facts had been
absorbed in its order dismissing the case allegedly upon want
of jurisdiction. Finally, they submit for the Court to appreciate
and rule upon the Rules of Court that provide remedies in case
of jurisdictional issues.

After a careful scrutiny of the arguments of the


contending parties, the Motion To Dismiss Memorandum is
hereby DENIED for lack of merit. It is up to this Court to
appreciate the contents of the memorandum filed by the
appellants.

Considering that both the appellants and the appellee


have filed their respective memorandum, let the instant
appeal be submitted for decision.

x - - - - - - - - - - - -x

RESOLUTION

Movant Jerome L. de Guzman, the authorized


representative and Officer-in-Charge of the Nueva Ecija
Branch in Northern Luzon of Eastworld Motor Industries Corp.
(“the Company”), filed on January 22, 2013 a Motion To
Release Motorcycle praying that the motor vehicle which was
mortgaged to their Company and allegedly used by the
accused in this case be released in his favor. He claims that
the mortgagor, Maribel F. Moga, failed to pay three (3)
consecutive monthly installment payments of the said motor
vehicle; hence, it should be delivered on demand to the
Company. Attached to his motion are photocopies of a
Secretary’s Certificate and the Chattel Mortgage.

When the motion was heard on February 20, 2013 the


Public Prosecutor was given ten (10) days within which to
make his comment and/or objection thereto. On March 14,
2013 Prosecutor Angelito Adriano filed his Comment stating
his objection to the motion. He countered that “the motion is
pre-mature as there is yet no foreclosure of the mortgage;
thus, the cause of action the mortgagee has to take is purely
civil.”2

2
Comment, p.67 of the Record
The Court notes that on page eight (8) of the record,
confiscating officers PO1 Ryan B. Manahan and PO1 Mark
Jayson C. dela Cruz issued an Acknowledgement Receipt of
Motorcycle/Motor Vehicle stating that the subject motor
vehicle is temporarily impounded at their office at the
Provincial Public Safety Company, Nueva Ecija Police
Provincial Office, Cabanatuan City, as part of the evidence for
Violation of PD 1866 as amended by RA 8294.

After studying the arguments of both parties, the Court


is inclined to rule against the movant.

Article 1484 of the Civil Code of the Philippines provides:

“Art. 1484. In a contract of sale of personal


property the price of which is payable in
instalments, the vendor may exercise any of the
following remedies:

(1) Exact fulfilment of the obligation, should


the vendee fail to pay;

(2) Cancel the sale, should the vendee’s failure


to pay cover two or more instalments;

(3) Foreclose the chattel mortgage on the


thing sold, if one has been constituted, should the
vendee’s failure to pay cover two or more
instalments. In this case, he shall have no further
action against the purchaser to recover any unpaid
balance of the price. Any agreement to the contrary
shall be void.”

Here, the subject motor vehicle is registered in the name


of Maribel F. Moga and mortgaged with the Company. The
movant claims that Moga failed to pay three consecutive
monthly instalment payments. Clearly, the Company has yet
to avail of the remedies cited above before it can claim
possession and ownership of the motor vehicle. The Court
cannot hastily give out the same to anyone except to the
rightful owner thereof.

WHEREFORE, the instant motion is hereby DENIED for


lack of merit.
SO ORDERED.

Civil Case No. 5976

Defendants.
x----------------------x

RESOLUTION

Before the Court is the Motion For Execution filed by the


plaintiff, through counsel, on April 22, 2013 praying for the
issuance of a Writ of Execution directing the Sheriff to put into
effect the Decision of the Court dated June 15, 2011.

The plaintiff averred that the defendants failed to give


further payments after tendering three (3) monthly
installment payments. And since the said Decision was based
on a Compromise Agreement submitted by the parties, the
same is immediately final and executory.

When the motion was heard on May 22, 2013 defendant


Arturo Soberano appeared and was given a period of fifteen
(15) days to file comment to the motion. He was likewise
advised by the Court to confer with his counsel, the Public
Attorney’s Office (PAO). The plaintiff’s counsel duly furnished
the PAO with a copy of the motion. Up to this time, neither
the defendants nor their counsel had filed their comment.

- 2 -
Under the Compromise Agreement entered into by the
parties in this case, the defendants obligated themselves to
“pay the plaintiff on monthly instalments in the amount of
Twenty Thousand Pesos (P20,000.00) to commence on
November 15, 2010 and every 15th day of the month
thereafter until the total obligation is fully paid. They further
agreed that in case of default of payment, the plaintiff
reserves her right to revive this case or move for execution of
the Compromise Agreement”.

WHEREFORE, for being meritorious, the Motion For


Execution is hereby GRANTED. Let a Writ of Execution be
issued for the implementation of the Decision of the Court
dated June 15, 2011.

SO ORDERED.

ORDER

A review of the record reveals that the Warrant of Arrest


dated February 5, 2014 issued by the Court against the

captioned as Crim. Case No. 21568, as shown by the Return
received from the Provincial Director of PNP Nueva Ecija on
February 18, 2014.

Considering that the correct number of this case is


22187, let the earlier issued Warrant of Arrest be recalled and
a new one be issued reflecting the correct criminal case
number.

Send a copy of this Order to the Chief of Police of


Cabanatuan City, Provincial Director of PNP Nueva Ecija, NBI
