    NIC vs. CA G.R. No. 88709

    Uploaded by

    Marianne Andres
    The petitioners filed a case to annul a sheriff's sale of their property and recover possession, claiming the sale was invalid as notice of the auction date was changed without their knowledge. The trial court issued an order granting the demurrer to evidence filed by some respondents, setting aside the preliminary injunction. The Court of Appeals did not adequately review this order as it lacked sufficient basis and facts. The Supreme Court remanded the case back to the trial court to revise the order granting the demurrer to properly articulate the facts and law on which it is based.

    NICOS INDUSTRIAL CORPORATION, JUAN COQUINCO and CARLOS COQUINCO, petitioners, vs. THE COURT OF APPEALS, VICTORINO P.

    EVANGELISTA, in his capacity as Ex-Officio Sheriff of Bulacan, UNITED COCONUT PLANTERS BANK, MANUEL L. CO, GOLDEN STAR INDUSTRIAL CORPORATION and THE REGISTER OF DEEDS FOR THE PROVINCE OF BULACAN, respondents. G.R. No. 88709 February 11, 1992 FACTS: In the complaint filed by the petitioners before the Regional Trial Court of Bulacan, it was alleged that on January 24, 1980, NICOS Industrial Corporation obtained a loan of P2, 000,000.00 from private respondent United Coconut Planters Bank and to secure payment thereof executed a real estate mortgage on two parcels of land located at Marilao, Bulacan. The mortgage was foreclosed for the supposed non-payment of the loan, and the sheriff's sale was held on July 11, 1983, without re-publication of the required notices after the original date for the auction was changed without the knowledge or consent of the mortgagor. UCPB was the highest and lone bidder and the mortgaged lands were sold to it for P3, 558,547.64. On August 29, 1983, UCPB sold all its rights to the properties to private respondent Manuel Co, who on the same day transferred them to Golden Star Industrial Corporation, another private respondent, upon whose petition a writ of possession was issued to it on November 4, 1983. On September 6, 1984, NICOS and the other petitioners, as chairman of its board of directors and its executive vice-president, respectively, filed their action for "annulment of sheriff's sale, recovery of possession, and damages, with prayer for the issuance of a preliminary prohibitory and mandatory injunction." The ex officio sheriff of Bulacan, moved to dismiss the complaint. Co denied the allegations of the plaintiffs and, like the other defendants, counterclaimed for damages. The plaintiffs presented two witnesses, including petitioner Carlos Coquinco, who testified at three separate hearings. They also submitted 21 exhibits. Golden Star and Evangelista then filed a 7-page demurrer to the evidence. No opposition to the demurrer having been submitted despite notice thereof to the parties, Judge Nestor F. Dantes considered it submitted for resolution and issued an order setting aside and dissolving the Writ of Preliminary Injunction. It is this order that is now assailed by the petitioners. ISSUE: WON THE ORDER GRANTING DEMURRER TO EVIDENCE CONTAINED FACTS AND LAW WHICH IT IS BASED. HELD: No. It is not the normal function of this Court to rule on a demurrer to the evidence in the first instance; our task comes later, to review the ruling of the trial court after it is examined by the Court of Appeals and, when proper, its decision is elevated to us. In the present case, we find that the respondent court did not have an adequate basis for such examination because of the insufficiency of the challenged order. It must also be noted that we deal here only with property rights and, although we do not mean to minimize them, they do not require the same urgent action we took in Escober, which involved the very life of the accused. All things considered, we feel that the proper step is to remand this case to the court a quo for a revision of the challenged order in accordance with the requirements of the Constitution.
