ANTONIO LOCSIN II, Petitioner, vs. MEKENI FOOD CORPORATION, Respondent.

G.R. No. 192105 | 2013-12-09

SECOND DIVISION

DECISION

DEL CASTILLO, J.:

In the absence of specific terms and conditions governing a car plan agreement between the employer and employee, the former may not retain the installment payments made by the latter on the car plan and treat them as rents for the use of the service vehicle, in the event that the employee ceases his employment and is unable to complete the installment payments on the vehicle. The underlying reason is that the service vehicle was precisely used in the former' s business; any personal benefit obtained by the employee from its use is merely incidental.
