GR L-20034 JANUARY 30, 1965
FACTS:
The case at bar is an appeal of the decision of the CA to uphold
the trial court’s issuance of a writ of execution pending appeal.
The trial court, in a case filed by the petitioners against
respondents, decided in favor of the respondents, dismissing the
complaint and rendering the real estate mortgage void, and asking th
petitioners to pay respondents unpaid rentals, damages, and other
costs.
The petitioner filed with the court a notice of appeal, appeal
bond and record of appeal. The respondents then questioned the
record saying that it was incomplete and defective. The trial court
then ordered the appeal to be first perfected. While waiting for the
appeal to be perfected, the respondents moved for the issuance of a
writ of execution pending appeal, based on the alleged insolvency of
the petitioners.
The trial court approved this and it issued a writ of execution
prior appeal. This was appealed by the petitioners with the CA under
petition for certiorari. The CA on its original decision decided in favor
of petitioners and issued also a writ of preliminary injunction. On a
motion for reconsideration though by the respondents, the CA
reversed its decision and upheld the writ issued by the trial court.
This was questioned by the petitioners, saying that the
respondents didn’t raise any new issue in its motion for the CA to have
substantive reason to reverse its decision.
ISSUE:
Whether or not the CA erred in upholding the order of the trial
court to execute its decision pending appeal?
HELD:
The CA didn’t err in upholding the writ of execution pending
appeal of the trial court.
