GANCAYCO, J.:

This is a Petition for certiorari to review a Decision of the Court of Appeals.

The case involves a coconut plantation located at San Isidro, Candelaria, Quezon with an area of about five (5) hectares, owned by petitioner Lorenzo Hernandez. Private respondent Pedro Dagli works on the said landholding and an old copra kiln converted into a modest house served as his living quarters in the plantation.

Sometime in 1971, the petitioner sought to evict the private respondent from the premises in a letter asking him to vacate the house on the plantation so that the same may be reconverted into a copra kiln.
