NOTICE
Sirs/Mesdames :
Please take notice that the Court, First Division, issued a Resolution dated October 13, 2014which reads as follows:
"G.R. No. 206273 (Spouses Francisco R. Angeles and Zenaida S. Angeles v. The Register of Deeds for Pasig City, Wilfredo R. Lua, Victoriana L. Lua, and Perla S. Galecio). TIEHDC
After a judicious review of the records, the Court resolves to DENY the petition and AFFIRM the October 29, 2012 Decision 1 and March 14, 2013 Resolution 2 of the Court of Appeals (CA) in CA-G.R. SP No. 119195 for failure of Spouses Francisco R. Angeles and Zenaida S. Angeles (petitioners-spouses) to sufficiently show that the CA committed any reversible error in denying their petition for annulment of judgment of the Regional Trial Court of Pasig City, Branch 167 (RTC) in LRC Case No. 7475.
As correctly ruled by the CA, petitioners-spouses failed to rebut the RTC's finding that the owner's duplicate certificate of TCT No. PT-84297 was lost and that respondent Wilfredo R. Lua (Lua) has an interest in the subject property. Petitioners-spouses did not show any extraordinary circumstances warranting the exercise of the Court's appellate review of such factual findings. The Court likewise cannot sustain petitioners-spouses' challenge against the sale in favor of Lua because issues on ownership is beyond the jurisdiction of the RTC in a cadastral proceeding for the replacement of lost duplicate certificate of title, 3 the objective of which is merely to determine two things — (1) that the owner's duplicate certificate of title was actually lost; and (2) that the person who filed the petition has sufficient interest in the property covered by the title to acquire a copy of the same. 4TAIcaD
SO ORDERED."
Very truly yours,
(SGD.) EDGAR O. ARICHETADivision Clerk of Court
