PAREDES, J.:

This an appeal from the judgment of the CFI of Manila, the dispositive portion of which reads:
". . . Of the payments made by the plaintiff, only that made on October 25, 1950, in the amount of P1,250.00 has prescribed. Payments made in 1951 and thereafter are still recoverable since the extra- judicial demand made on October 30, 1956 was well within the six year prescriptive period of the New Civil Code.
In view of the foregoing considerations, judgment is hereby rendered in favor of the plaintiff, ordering the defendants to refund the amount of P29,824.00, without interest. No costs.
