4/15/2021 E-Library - Information At Your Fingertips: Printer Friendly Philippines, the CA ordered the respondents to, reimburse petitioner the transportation and burial expenses she incurred. As for the other awards, the CA held that petitioner was not entitled to the same. It held that life insurance may only be awarded in case of accidental death. Since death by suicide cannot in any way be ruled as accidental, petitioner was not entitled to claim the life insurance benefit under R.A. No. 10022. The CA deleted the awards for unpaid salary, guaranteed overtime pay, leave pay, daily allowance/subsistence allowance and owner's bonus in light of the evidence presented by the respondents that the same had already been paid to, and received by the petitioner.[42] The CA also ruled that petitioner was not entitled to moral and exemplary damages, and attorney's fees, and thus deleted the same.[43] The CA disposed in this wise: WHEREFORE, premises considered, the APPEAL is PARTLY GRANTED.

The awards for moral and exemplary damages and attorney's fees, for lack of factual and legal basis, are likewise DELETED. [Respondents] REMAIN LIABLE to pay US$89,100.00 for death benefits and [PhP] 162,080.00 for transportation and burial expenses as provided by their CBA with their seafarers. As ruled above, these are subject to an interest of 6% per annum reckoned from the date of filing of the Notice to Arbitrate on 7 August 2014 until the finality of this Decision. Thereafter, the interest of 6% per annum shall be imposed on these amounts until fully paid. SO ORDERED.[44] Aggrieved, the petitioner moved for reconsideration, but the CA denied it in a Resolution[45] dated April 12, 2016. Not accepting defeat, petitioner is now before the Court via the present petition. The Issues Presented Petitioner raises the following issues for the Court's consideration: I.
