6/5/2020 E-Library - Information At Your Fingertips: Printer Friendly petitioner’s satisfaction of the judgment award, as the respondent had obliged himself to return the payment if the petition would be granted.[20] Verily in this case, petitioners satisfied the judgment award in strict compliance with a duly issued writ of execution and pursuant to terms fair to both parties. Thus, the equitable ruling in Career Philippines would certainly be unfair to petitioners in this case as they still have a remedy under the rules. The CA, therefore, was in error in dismissing the petition for being moot and academic. WHEREFORE, the petition is GRANTED. The May 2, 2013 Decision and the September 9, 2013 Resolution of the Court of Appeals in CA-G.R. SP No. 124763 are REVERSED and SET ASIDE. The case is ordered REMANDED to the Court of Appeals for decision on the merits. SO ORDERED. Carpio, (Chairperson), Brion, Del Castillo, and Leonen, JJ., concur. [1] Rollo, pp. 102-114.
