Summary:
This case involves a petition for certiorari seeking the nullification of orders issued by the respondent judge in violation of due process and with grave abuse of discretion. The petitioner, Teresita Esquivel, filed a motion for extension of time to file a formal opposition to a petition for the cancellation of a notice of lis pendens. The court did not take immediate action on the motion, and the petitioner subsequently filed the opposition within the requested time frame. However, the court issued an order granting the petition for cancellation without considering the opposition. The petitioner argues that this violated due process. The court also found that the lis pendens had already been cancelled by the private respondents before the order was even finalized, which is a violation of the law. The court ultimately grants the petition and sets aside the orders issued by the respondent judge.
Doctrine:
The court emphasizes the importance of due process and the opportunity for all parties to present their causes and defenses. It states that cases should be determined on their merits rather than on technicalities or procedural imperfections. The court also highlights the principle that a buyer of property in litigation assumes the risk unless the sale is with the consent of the parties and/or with court approval.
