REJOINDER
(to the Reply dated 08 May 2014)
2
justify the reversal of the assailed Decision of
the Office of the President since the Petitioner
was not deprived of its property without due
process of law. This is the jurisprudential ruling
laid down by the Supreme Court in the recent case
of Sofio v. Valenzuela,3 thus:
3
counsel is guilty of gross negligence
resulting in the client’s deprivation
of his property without due process of
law, the client is not concluded by
his counsel’s mistakes and the case
can be reopened in order to give the
client another chance to present his
case. As such, the test herein is
whether their former counsel’s
negligence deprived the petitioners of
due process of law.
4
12. Finally, it may not be amissed to
reiterate at this point that Petitioner was also
guilty of neglect. It failed to exercise ordinary
prudence and diligence to be brought up to date as
regards the status of its case or the steps being
taken by Atty. Nogales in the defense of its case;
PRAYER
WHEREFORE, premises considered, it is
respectfully prayed of this Honorable Court that
the Petitioner’s motion for reconsideration be
denied for lack of merit.
