Case:
SPOUSES MINIANO B. DELA CRUZ and LETA L. DELA CRUZ
vs.
ANA MARIE CONCEPCION

G.R. No. 172825

October 11, 2012

Parties of the Case:

1. Miniano B. Dela Cruz and Leta L. Dela Cruz- Petitioner

2. Ana Marie Concepcion- Respondent

Facts of the Case according to the respomdent:

 March 25, 1996, petitioners (as vendors) entered into a Contract to


Sell with respondent (as vendee) involving a house and lot in Cypress St.,
Phase I, Town and Country Executive Village, Antipolo City for a
consideration of P2,000,000.00. Respondent made the following
payments, to wit: (1) P500,000.00 by way of down payment; (2)
P500,000.00 on May 30, 1996; (3) P500,000.00 paid on January 22,
1997; and (4) P500,000.00 bounced check dated June 30, 1997 which
was subsequently replaced by another check of the same amount, dated
July 7, 1997. Respondent was, therefore, able to pay a total of
P2,000,000.00. Before respondent issued the P500,000.00 replacement
check, she told petitioners that based on the computation of her
accountant as of July 6, 1997, her unpaid obligation which includes
interests and penalties was only P200,000.00.

Issues:

Defenses of the respondent:


In her Answer with Compulsory Counterclaim, respondent
claimed that her unpaid obligation to petitioners is only P200,000.00 as
earlier confirmed by petitioners and not P487,384.15 as later alleged in
the complaint. Respondent thus prayed for the dismissal of the
complaint. By way of counterclaim, respondent prayed for the payment
of moral damages and attorney’s fees. During the presentation of the
parties’ evidence, in addition to documents showing the statement of her
paid obligations, respondent presented a receipt purportedly indicating
payment of the remaining balance of P200,000.00 to Adoracion Losloso
(Losloso) who allegedly received the same on behalf of petitioners .
