    1) Edison Piazos was charged with murder after stabbing Roreno Faoula in the chest with a small knife, which led to his death. Piazos cousin Alfredo Biso testified that Piazos and the victim grappled over the knife after the victim was drunk and wanted to bet against Biso in a billiard match. 2) The trial court found Piazos guilty of murder and sentenced him to pay P50,000 as indemnity and P15,212 in actual damages. However, the Supreme Court ruled that actual damages cannot be awarded without receipts, but temperate damages can be awarded in lieu of actual damages.
