EMMANUEL BERNABE v. RODOLFO "RUDY" CAOILI
G.R. No. 198690 (Emmanuel Bernabe v. Rodolfo "Rudy" Caoili).
RESOLUTION
The Court, after a review of the records, resolves to DENY the petition for failure to show that the Court of Appeals committed reversible error when it affirmed the ruling of the Regional Trial Court that the errors raised by petitioner Emmanuel Bernabe pertained to the latter's appreciation and evaluation of the evidence. Errors of judgment such as this cannot be resolved without violating respondent Rodolfo Caoili's right against double jeopardy. The same cannot also be raised in a petition for certiorari since the latter is limited to correcting errors of jurisdiction or those involving the commission of grave abuse of discretion. Furthermore, petitioner Bernabe is raising factual issues that this Court cannot resolve in a petition for review.cralaw
