    The Supreme Court reversed the judgment in the case of People vs. Bindoy. Bindoy was involved in a struggle with Pacas when he accidentally wounded Omamdam instead of Pacas. The Court noted that if Bindoy had intended to wound Pacas but accidentally wounded Omamdam instead, he could be held criminally liable. However, that was not the case here. The wounding of Omamdam appeared to be purely accidental, so Bindoy was exempted from criminal liability under the circumstances.

    Criminal Law Review (Circumstances which affect criminal liability)


    EXEMPTING CIRCUMSTANCES: ACCIDENT
    People of the Philippine Islands vs. Bindoy
    G.R. No. L-34665 (August 28, 1931)
    Villamor, J.
    the unfortunate usisero.
    Obiter dictum: (If ever i relate yung case sa Art. 4 (1))
    If, in his (Bindoy) struggle with Pacas, the defendant had attempted to wound his opponent, and instead of doing so, had wounded Omamdam,
    he would have had to answer for his act, since whoever willfully commits a felony or a misdemeanor incurs criminal liability, although the
    wrongful act done be different from that which he intended. (Art. 1 of the Penal Code.) But, as we have said, this is not the case.

    Final Ruling: Judgment is reversed.
