FIRST DIVISION
[G.R. No. 204630. January 12, 2015.]
SPOUSES VICTORIO LORENZO AND SONIA LORENZO, petitioners, vs. BEN CUA HIAN TEK, respondent.
NOTICE
Sirs/Mesdames :
Please take notice that the Court, First Division, issued a Resolution dated January 12, 2015 which reads as follows:
"G.R. No. 204630 (Spouses Victorio Lorenzo and Sonia Lorenzo v. Ben Cua Hian Tek). — After a judicious perusal of the records, the Court resolves to DENY the instant petition and AFFIRM the October 20, 2011 Decision 1 and November 22, 2012 Resolution 2 of the Court of Appeals (CA) in CA-G.R. CV No. 87204 for failure of Spouses Victorio Lorenzo and Sonia Lorenzo (petitioners-spouses) to sufficiently show that the CA committed any reversible error in upholding their liability to respondent Ben Cua Hian Tek, as the former had transacted with the latter in their personal capacities and not through their corporation, V.A. Lorenzo Farms, Inc.
It bears to stress that the issues raised by petitioners-spouses are factual in nature, which the Court is proscribed to review. Well-settled is the principle that factual findings of the trial court, when adopted and confirmed by the CA, are binding and conclusive on this Court and will generally not be reviewed on appeal. 3
The transmittal letter dated October 8, 2014 of the Judicial Records Division, Court of Appeals, Manila, transmitting the Court of Appeals rollo consisting of 294 pages and three (3) folders of the original records is NOTED.
SO ORDERED."
Very truly yours,
(SGD.) EDGAR O. ARICHETADivision Clerk of Court
