Philippine Supreme Court Resolutions
[G.R. No. 197420 : August 22, 2011]
BENJAMIN NOVICIO [DECEASED], SUBSTITUTED BY CONSTANCIA NOVICIO, ET AL. V. RODOLFO TANGPUZ, NECITO DELVO, PABLITO ABILA, ET AL.
G.R. No. 197420 (Benjamin Novicio [deceased], substituted by Constancia Novicio, et al. v. Rodolfo Tangpuz, Necito Delvo, Pablito Abila, et al.).
RESOLUTION
The Court resolves to DENY the petition for failure to show that the Court of Appeals committed reversible error in affirming the decision of the Office of the President that dismissed petitioners' appeal for being filed out of time. Further, the Court of Appeals correctly affirmed the ruling of the DENR denying petitioners' application for the purchase of the subject lots, finding merit, instead, to the application of the City of Taguig to acquire the same for public purpose.
SO ORDERED.
Very truly yours,
(Sgd.) LUCITA ABJELINA-SORIANO
Division Clerk of Court
