SECRETARY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS AND HIGHWAYS AND DISTRICT ENGINEER CELESTINO R. CONTRERAS, PETITIONERS, VS. SPOUSES HERACLEO AND RAMONA TECSON, RESPONDENTS. [SEPARATE CONCURRING OPINION BRION, J.]

G.R. No. 179334 | 2015-04-21

SEPARATE CONCURRING OPINION
 
BRION, J.:
 
I write this Separate Concurring Opinion to reflect my former Dissent (to the circulated Opinion of Justice Marvic Leonen) and to express my position and concurrence with the ponencia's position.
 
In the deliberations of the Court, the original ponencia of Justice Peralta - on the motion for reconsideration (Motion)[1] filed by the respondents Spouses Heracleo and Ramona Tecson (respondents) from the Court's July 1, 2013 decision - was not resolved but for some reason Justice Leonen circulated an Opinion (Leonen Opinion) that was intended to be a ponencia to which I dissented.
