the front door, he noticed Nestor standing right outside
the doorway, Nestor drew a gun, aimed at Gerry, and
fired; but it was not Gerry who got hit, instead it was his

related to the topic. when the accused intended to kill the victim, as
manifested by the use of a deadly weapon in the assault,
and the wound/s sustained by the victim was/were not

The case records undeniably prove that Gerry was the

intended victim of the shooting.

The SC further ordered Nestor to pay Gerry P25,000.00

as civil indemnity, P25,000.00 as moral damages, and
P25,000.00 as exemplary damages and the heirs of

The foregoing are related to some of the topics included

in the PowerPoint (Ppt) because:

a. Involved in this case is a crime, which according to the

New Civil Code (NCC) is one of the sources of
obligations. Also like in this case, Nestor’s act of
shooting and killing the victims were INTENDED which
is one of the characteristics or nature of a crime- it’s
INTENTIONAL;

b. Involved also is damage and damages; Damage here

pertain to Jonabel’s life which was taken away by Nestor
and also the wounds sustained by Gerry and Princess
because of Nestor’s act of shooting them. On the other
