Q. In the proceedings before the Labor Arbiter, only the unregistered trade
name of the employercorporation, Hacienda Lanutan, and its
administrator-manager were impleaded and subsequently held liable for
illegal dismissal. On appeal, the NLRC motu proprio included the
corporate name of the employer as jointly and severally liable for the
workers claims. There is no dispute that Hacienda Lanutan which was
owned solely by the employer-corporation was impleaded and heard. It
was represented by its corporate officer in the proceedings before the
Labor Arbiter. Is the NLRCs action justified?
