G.R. No. 219468, June 08, 2016

JOSE BURGOS, JR., Petitioner, v. SPOUSES ELADIO SJ. NAVAL AND ARLINA B. NAVAL, AND
AMALIA B. NAVAL, Respondents.

RESOLUTION

PERLAS-BERNABE, J.:

Assailed in this petition for review on certiorari1 are the Resolutions dated March 5, 20152 and July 2,
20153 of the Court of Appeals (CA) in CA-G.R. SP No. 138203, which denied petitioner Jose Burgos, Jr.'s
(Burgos) petition for certiorari4 before it for his lack of authority to initiate and bring the same in the
name of the People of the Philippines (People).

The Facts

This case stemmed from a letter-complaint5 dated April 26, 2012 filed by Burgos, before the Office of the
Provincial Prosecutor, Taytay, Rizal, charging respondents spouses Eladio and Arlina Naval (Sps. Naval)
and their daughter, Amalia Naval (Amalia; collectively respondents), of the crime of Estafa through
Falsification of Public Documents. Burgos alleged that he and his wife, Rubie S. Garcia-Burgos, were the
DebtKollect Company, Inc. registered owners of a lot with an area of 1,389 square meters, situated in the Municipality of Taytay,
Rizal, covered by Transfer Certificate of Title (TCT) No. 550579 (subject lot).6 On November 19, 1996,
the subject lot was purportedly mortgaged to a certain Antonio Assad,7 and subsequently, Burgos
decided to obtain a loan from Sps. Naval in order to avoid foreclosure. Respondents agreed and asked
spouses Burgos to sign some blank documents in return -to which they faithfully complied.8 ChanRoblesVirtualawlibrary

Sometime in February 2011, Burgos allegedly discovered that TCT No. 550579 was cancelled, and a new
one was issued, i.e., TCT No. 644582,9 in favor of Sps. Naval on April 1, 1998. He claimed that the blank
documents which he and his wife previously signed turned out to be a receipt10 and a Deed of Absolute
Sale11 over the subject lot through the ploy and conspiracy of respondents. Thereafter, or on February

11, 2013, an Information12 was filed before the Regional Trial Court of Antipolo City, Branch 97 (RTC),
docketed as Criminal Case No. 13-45768, accusing respondents of having committed the aforesaid
crime.13 ChanRoblesVirtualawlibrary

Before arraignment, respondents filed a motion to quash14 based on the following grounds: (a) that their
criminal liability has been extinguished due to prescription;15 (b) that the information failed to charge
Amalia with an offense;16 and (c) that they were not afforded the opportunity of a preliminary
investigation.17 Respondents averred that since the information was filed on February 11, 2013, beyond
the reglementary period often (10) years from the registration of the title on April 1, 1998, the crime had
already prescribed. They also claimed that the information did not contain any specific charge against
Amalia. Finally, they maintained that they were deprived of their right to dispute the allegations of the
complaint during the preliminary investigation.18 ChanRoblesVirtualawlibrary

The RTC Ruling

In an Order19 dated August 14, 2013, the RTC granted respondents' motion and, consequently, dismissed
the case on the ground of prescription.
ChanRobles Intellectual Property
The RTC essentially observed that the prescriptive period for the alleged crime commenced from the time
Division Burgos had constructive notice of the alleged falsification, i.e., when the document was registered with
the Register of Deeds on April 1, 1998. Therefore, since more than ten (10) years had elapsed when the
information was filed on February 11, 2013, the subject crime had prescribed.20 ChanRoblesVirtualawlibrary

Aggrieved, Burgos moved for reconsideration,21 which was denied in an Order22 dated July 14, 2014.
Notably, the RTC declared that it could not order the public prosecutor to amend the information to
include the specific amount of damage sustained by Burgos amounting to P8,500,000.00, as it would
improperly infringe his executive functions.23 Thus, Burgos elevated the matter to the CA via a petition
for certiorari, docketed as CA-G.R. SP No. 138203.

The CA Ruling

In a Resolution24 dated March 5, 2015, the CA dismissed the petition for failure of Burgos to join the
People in his certiorari petition as required by the Administrative Code of 1987.25 ChanRoblesVirtualawlibrary

Unstirred, Burgos moved for reconsideration,26


which was likewise denied in a Resolution dated July 2,
2015. Significantly, the CA observed that the Office of the Solicitor General (OSG) has not consented to
27
the filing of the certiorari petition; hence, this petition before the Court.

The Issue Before the Court

The issue for the Court's resolution is whether or not the CA correctly dismissed the certiorari petition on
the ground that the People, as represented by the OSG, was not impleaded as a party.

The Court's Ruling

In his petition, Burgos averred that the CA Resolutions dated March 5, 2015 and July 2, 2015 should be
declared null and void for having been issued with grave abuse of discretion amounting to lack or excess
of jurisdiction. He claimed that he already complied with the directive to furnish the OSG with a copy of
the certiorari petition before the CA,28 and that he even made a letter dated April 7, 2015,29 requesting
the OSG for authority to appear and prosecute the case on behalf of the People. Relatedly, he prayed for
the reinstatement of the Information and/or a declaration that prescription has not yet set in as the
crime of Estafa through Falsification of Public Documents was only discovered sometime in February
2011.30ChanRoblesVirtualawlibrary

In their comment,31 respondents maintained that Burgos nevertheless failed to furnish the OSG with a
June-2016 Jurisprudence copy of the certiorari petition filed before the CA as mandated by Section 3,32 Rule 46 of the Rules of
Court, which is a sufficient ground for its dismissal.33 In fact, they averred that Burgos did not even
