G.R. Nos. 182978-79 6 of 19 http://sc.judiciary.gov.ph/jurisprudence/2009/april2009/182978-79.htm WHEREFORE, the motions for reconsideration are GRANTED. Accordingly, the award of US$80,000.00 in actual damages is hereby reduced to US$4,686.73 plus interest at the legal rate computed from the time it became due until fully paid. Petitioners are hereby adjudged jointly and solidarily liable with the employer for the monetary awards with Becmen Service Exporter and Promotions, Inc. having a right of reimbursement from White Falcon Services, Inc. [17] SO ORDERED. In the Amended Decision, the Court of Appeals found that although Jasmins death was compensable, however, there is no evidentiary basis to support an award of actual damages in the amount of US$80,000.00. Nor may lost earnings be collected, because the same may be charged only against the perpetrator of the crime or quasi-delict. Instead, the appellate court held that Jasmins beneficiaries should be entitled only to the sum equivalent of the remainder of her 36-month employment contract, or her monthly salary of US$247.00 multiplied by nineteen (19) months, with legal interest. Becmen filed the instant petition for review on certiorari (G.R. Nos. 182978-79). The Cuaresmas, on the other hand, moved for a reconsideration of the amended decision, but it was denied. They are now before us via G.R. Nos. 184298-99. On October 6, 2008, the Court resolved to consolidate G.R. Nos. 184298-99 with G.R. Nos. 182978-79. In G.R. Nos. 182978-79, Becmen raises the following issues for our resolution: (THE COURT OF APPEALS) GRAVELY ERRED WHEN IT GAVE MORE CREDENCE AND WEIGHT TO THE AUTOPSY REPORT CONDUCTED BY THE CABANATUAN CITY HEALTH OFFICE THAN THE MEDICAL AND POLICE REPORTS ISSUED BY THE MINISTRY OF HEALTH OF KINGDOM OF SAUDI ARABIA AND AL-BIRK HOSPITAL. (THE COURT OF APPEALS) GRAVELY ERRED WHEN ON THE BASIS OF THE POSITION PAPERS AND ANNEXES THERETO INCLUDING THE AUTOPSY REPORT, IT CONCLUDED THAT THE DEATH OF JASMIN CUARESMA WAS CAUSED BY CRIMINAL AGGRESSION. (THE COURT OF APPEALS) GRAVELY ERRED WHEN IT HELD THAT THE DEATH OF JASMIN CUARESMA WAS COMPENSABLE PURSUANT TO THE RULING OF THE SUPREME COURT IN TALLER VS. YNCHAUSTI, G.R. NO. 35741, DECEMBER 20, 1932, WHICH IT FOUND TO BE STILL GOOD LAW. (THE COURT OF APPEALS) GRAVELY ERRED WHEN IT HELD BECMEN LIABLE FOR THE DEATH OF JASMIN CUARESMA NOTWITHSTANDING ITS ADMISSIONS THAT IQAMA INSURANCE WAS A TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR SINCE 1/26/2016 3:50 PM
