FACTS:  Petitioner sold a parcel of land, located in Greenhills Subdivision IV, San Juan to EMILIO HERMOSO. WIth the said sale, it was stated in the contract that the said lot shall only be used exclusively for residential purposes, until December 31, 2025. In 1981, the Metropolitan Manila Commission (MMC) enacted an ordinance known as the Comprehensive Zoning Area for the NCR.

FACTS:  Jose Juego, a construction worker of the DM Consunji, Inc., fell 14 floors from the Renaissance Tower on November 2, 1990 and died. His wife, Maria, filed a complaint for damages against the DMCI before the Regional Trial Court (RTC) of Pasig. The DMCI argued, in defense, that Maria Juego already availed of the death benefits from the State Insurance Fund.  The RTC ruled in favor of Maria. The DMCI filed an appeal before the Court of Appeals (CA) but the CA affirmed the decision of the RTC in toto.  In the DMCI's appeal, it contended that upon Maria's claim of the death benefits from the State Insurance Fund, she may no longer prosecute a civil action against the employer citing the Workmen Compensation's Act.  ISSUE:  Whether or not the waiver of Ms. Maria's rights was valid during the time that she claimed the death benefits while she was unaware that in doing so, she is relieved from her right to pursue a civil action against the DMCI....

Earlier this year, I lost something that is very important in my life. I lost having a COMPLETE family of my own. It hurt so bad. It really did. I did not see it coming. I never saw it coming. But i knew it was inevitable.  Currently, I have undergone a lot of changes in my life. Some were attributable to my recent experiences. As the saying goes, when we lose something in our life, SOMETHING BETTER comes along. Perhaps this is WHY I am in law school now.  I have always looked forward to the day that I go back to school. I graduated when I was only 19 years old and I worked since then. Thinking about those times, I realized that I should have continued my studies first before entering the professional world. But then, life comes as it is. It is a product of my decisions and I am not regretful of the things that have shaped me into who I am today.  So, I am now in law school. And my goal is to survive this until I acquire my license.   Whenever I ponder on my ...
