Oposa vs. Factoran Case Digest (G.R. No. 101083, July 30, 1993)
A denial or violation of that right by the other who has the correlative duty or obligation to respect or
protect or respect the same gives rise to a cause of action. Petitioners maintain that the granting of
the TLA, which they claim was done with grave abuse of discretion, violated their right to a balance
and healthful ecology. Hence, the full protection thereof requires that no further TLAs should be
renewed or granted.
After careful examination of the petitioners' complaint, the Court finds it to be adequate enough to
show, prima facie, the claimed violation of their rights.
