Pinagbabayad ng ng danyos ang isang g**o sa pamilya ng isang taong namatay matapos tamaan ng puno ng saging na ipinag-utos niyang putulin ng kanyang estudyante.

Ayon sa Korte, ang mga g**o ay maaaring mapanagot para sa pinsalang dulot ng isang mag-aaral sa ilalim ng kanilang pangangasiwa kung hindi sila nagsagawa ng angkop na pagsisikap o due diligence para mapigilan ang anumang insidente.

Sa Desisyon na isinulat ni Associate Justice Ramon Paul L. Hernando, pinagtibay ng First Division ng Korte ang pananagutan ni Gil Apolinario (Apolinario), ang punong-g**o ng Brgy. Palale Elementary School sa Sta. Margarita, Samar, para sa danyos na bunga ng pagkamatay ni Francisco De Los Santos (De Los Santos).

Inutusan ni Apolinario ang isang 15-anyos na estudyante na putulin ang puno ng saging malapit sa paaralan at katabi ng highway. Tinamaan si De Los Santos na noon ay sakay ng isang motorsiklo.

Pinagbabayad ng Korte si Apolinario ng PHP 355,000.00 bilang danyos at gastusin sa paglilitis sa mga tagapagmana ni De Los Santos.

Ayon sa Korte Suprema, ang mga g**o at pinuno ng paaralan ay may pananagutan sa mga aksyon ng mga mag-aaral habang nasa ilalim ng kanilang pangangasiwa. Kahit sa labas ng oras ng pag-aaral, ang mga tagapagturo ay dapat magsagawa ng angkop na pagsisikap kapag nagtatalaga ng mga gawain sa mga mag-aaral.

Sa ilalim ng Civil Code, ang isang taong nagdudulot ng pinsala sa iba dahil sa pagkakamali o kapabayaan ay dapat magbayad para sa pinsalang nagawa. Sa ilalim ng prinsipyo ng vicarious liability, ang obligasyong ito ay nalalapat din sa mga g**ong nangangasiwa at mga pinuno ng paaralan na pangunahing responsable sa mga aksyon ng kanilang mga mag-aaral habang nasa ilalim ng kanilang pangangasiwa, maliban kung maipakita nila na gumawa sila ng wastong pag-iingat.
Sinabi ng Korte na nabigo si Apolinario na magsagawa ng due diligence. Hindi niya ginawa ang mga kinakailangang pag-iingat upang matiyak ang kaligtasan ng mga mag-aaral at iba pang mga tao sa kalapit na lugar na maaaring maapektuhan.

"The legal profession has long been a formidable foundation for leadership in the highest office of the land. History tells us that a significant majority of Philippine Presidents once walked the halls of justice as lawyers before taking the helm of the nation. Their legal acumen, honed in the pursuit of justice and governance, has shaped policies, upheld the rule of law, and steered the country through pivotal moments. Does this pattern reflect a nation's trust in the discipline and critical thinking that the legal profession instills? 🇵🇭⚖️ "

The Supreme Court reiterated that while lenders can acquire properties used as loan collateral, ownership cannot automatically transfer to them.

The SC explained that pactum commissorium occurs when (1) a property is used as collateral for a loan; and (2) the loan agreement includes a provision automatically transferring ownership of the collateral to the lender if the borrower fails to pay.

The SC emphasized that pactum commissorium is prohibited to protect borrowers from losing properties that may be worth more than their debt. Ownership can only be transferred through foreclosure and a public auction.

However, the SC clarified that this prohibition only applies to automatic transfers of ownership. Borrowers are free to voluntarily sell their collateral to lenders as repayment.

In this case, the realty corporation willingly entered into a separate agreement to sell its properties to the lenders as payment for the loan. The SC ruled that this was not an automatic transfer and, therefore, did not violate the prohibition against pactum commissorium.

The Decision is from the SC First Division, penned by Chief Justice Alexander G. Gesmundo.
