QUISUMBING, J.:

Petitioner assails the decision[1] of the Court of Appeals dated March 15, 2000, and its resolution[2] dated May 9, 2000, in CA-G.R. SP No. 49274, which denied for allegedly being a wrong remedy the petition for review filed by petitioner disputing a resolution of the Commission on the Settlement of Land Problems (COSLAP). In that resolution, COSLAP declared the area subject of the present controversy as part of Barangay Signal Village, and not part of government land as claimed by petitioner for one of its housing projects.

The facts of the case before us are uncomplicated.

Respondent Damayan ng Purok 14,...
