ABAD, J.:
This case pertains to a gift, otherwise denominated as a
donation mortis causa, which in reality is a donation inter
vivos made effective upon its execution by the donors and
acceptance thereof by the donees, and immediately
transmitting ownership of the donated property to the
latter, thus precluding a subsequent assignment thereof by
one of the donors.
