MARINO B. DAANG, PETITIONER, VS. SKIPPERS UNITED PACIFIC, INC. AND COMMERCIAL S.A., RESPONDENTS.

G.R. No. 191902 | 2019-07-30

D E C I S I O N
 
JARDELEZA, J.:*
 
This is a petition for review on certiorari[1] assailing the October 15, 2009 Decision[2] and March 30, 2010 Resolution[3] of the Court of Appeals (CA) in CA-G.R. SP No. 107561. The CA reversed and set aside the Decision of the National Labor Relations Commission (NLRC) in NLRC LAC No. 08-000643-08. In this case, We restate the rule that a conditional settlement of a judgment award which is highly prejudicial to the employee will be treated as a voluntary settlement of his/her claim that operates as a final satisfaction in his/her favor, rendering a case questioning the award moot and academic.[4]
