R E S O L U T I O N

PEREZ, J.:

For resolution is the Motion for Reconsideration1 filed by

petitioner Technical Education and Skills Development Authority
which seeks reconsideration of Our November_6, 2019 Decision,2
the decretal portion of which reads:

“WHEREFORE, the petition for review is DENIED.

The_Decision dated November_21,_2016 and the Resolution
dated January 17, 2017 of the Civil Service Commission in Case
No. 161378 are AFFIRMED.

SO ORDERED.”

In his Comment3 dated January 15, 2020, respondent

Florante L. Herrera prayed for the denial of petitioner's motion for
lack of merit.

RESOLUTION

The arguments and issues raised by petitioner as grounds

for reconsideration of Our ruling are the same arguments and
issues that have already been settled and resolved in the Decision
dated November_6, 2019 being sought to be reconsidered.

No legal or practical benefit inures if this Court were to

discuss and rule again on the grounds relied upon by the movants
which are merely a reiteration of the issues previously raised, and
thoroughly determined and evaluated in the Decision being
questioned.4

Since no new matters had been raised by petitioner and

private respondents, We see no cogent reason to disturb Our
November_6, 2019 Decision.

WHEREFORE, premises considered, the Motion for

Reconsideration filed by petitioner Technical Education and Skills
Development Authority is DENIED. Our Decision dated
November_6, 2019 STANDS.

SO ORDERED.
