FIRST DIVISION
[G.R. No. 200783. August 24, 2015.]
DE GUIA ENTERPRISES, INC./G-LINER AND/OR MA. LOURDES M. GROVES, petitioners, vs. GEROLITO M. INDOYON, respondent.
NOTICE
Sirs/Mesdames :
Please take notice that the Court, First Division, issued a Resolution dated August 24, 2015which reads as follows:
"G.R. No. 200783 (De Guia Enterprises, Inc./G-Liner and/or Ma. Lourdes M. Groves v. Gerolito M. Indoyon). —
After a judicious review of the records, the Court resolves to DENY the instant petition and AFFIRM the November 11, 2011 Decision 1 and February 24, 2012 Resolution 2 of the Court of Appeals (CA) in CA-G.R. SP No. 111823 for failure of petitioners De Guia Enterprises, Inc./G-Liner and/or Ma. Lourdes M. Groves (petitioners) to show that the CA committed any reversible error in upholding the finding of the National Labor Relations Commission that respondent Gerolito M. Indoyon (respondent) was illegally dismissed.
As correctly pointed out by the CA, petitioners failed to sufficiently establish by substantial evidence that respondent was negligent in the two (2) vehicular accidents that occurred on February 19, 2005 and July 19, 2005, respectively. Perforce, absent such negligence, respondent cannot be said to have violated the Company Rules and Regulations on "own fault accident"; hence, rendering his dismissal to be without a just cause, and therefore, invalid.
SO ORDERED."
Very truly yours,
(SGD.) EDGAR O. ARICHETADivision Clerk of Court
