Lord Nelson Santos P44,640.00 representing his salary for the unexpired portion of the contract P19,880.00 representing refund of his placement fee All other claims are dismissed for want of legal and factual basis. [7] SO ORDERED. Aggrieved, ASBT moved for reconsideration. The NLRC denied the motion for lack of merit. ASBT elevated the case to the Court of Appeals via a petition for certiorari under Rule 65 of the Rules of Court. However, in a Resolution [8] dated June 19, 2001, the Court of Appeals denied due course and dismissed ASBTs petition on the ground that the attached Verification and Certification of Non-Forum Shopping was signed by Mildred R. Santos as President of ASBT without any proof of authority to sign for and bind ASBT in the proceedings. ASBT filed a motion for reconsideration of the June 19, 2001 Resolution, submitting therewith the necessary board resolution authorizing corporate president Mildred R. Santos to represent ASBT before the Court of Appeals. The appellate court granted the motion and reinstated the petition. In its December 10, 2001 Decision, the Court of Appeals ruled in favor of ASBT. The decretal portion of the Decision reads WHEREFORE, premises considered, the petition is GRANTED. The assailed decision and resolution of the public respondent NLRC are SET ASIDE. Sameer Overseas Placement Agency, Inc. is hereby ordered to pay the following to: 1. Danilo Balcita a).
