NOTICE
Sirs/Mesdames :
Please take notice that the Court, First Division, issued a Resolution dated December 3, 2018 which reads as follows:
"G.R. No. 243295 [Formerly UDK 16292] (Rogelio R. Torejas, Jr. v. First Pioneer Distribution, Inc./Philman Power Center, Inc./Albert Allan D. Al-Cruz/Divina Tablante). — The Motion for Extension of Time to File Review on Certiorari with Request for Assignment of Docket Number filed by petitioner is GRANTED.
After review, the Court resolves to DENY the petition for failure to show that the Court of Appeals (CA) committed any reversible error in upholding the dismissal of the complaint of petitioner. Petitioner failed to prove that his employment was terminated. In addition, respondent Philman Power Center, Inc. has shown by evidence that it is a legitimate job contractor and the employer of petitioner. It must be remembered that factual findings of the Labor Arbiter, when affirmed, not only by the National Labor Relations Commission but as well as the CA, deserve to be given credence by this Court. Such is the case here, and petitioner has not shown why we should deviate from this well-settled rule.
WHEREFORE, the petition is DENIED. The September 15, 2017 Decision and August 22, 2018 Resolution of the Court of Appeals in CA-G.R. SP No. 145703 are AFFIRMED.
SO ORDERED."
Very truly yours,
(SGD.) LIBRADA C. BUENADivision Clerk of Court
