G.R. No. 127920 | 2005-08-09

THIRD DIVISION

SANDOVAL-GUTIERREZ, J.: 

Oftentimes death brings peace only to the person who dies but not to the people he leaves behind.

Here, a husband and a mother of the deceased are locked in an acrimonious dispute over the estate of their loved one. 

This is a petition for review on certiorari filed by Emilio B. Pacioles, Jr., herein petitioner, against Miguela Chuatoco-Ching, herein respondent, assailing the Court of Appeals Decision[1]...
