Title Supreme Court: Republic vs. Royales

Case: G.R. No. 168742

Decision Date: Sep 3, 2008

A cadastral case involving Lot Nos. 2917, 2919, 3272, and 9533 in Libmanan, Camarines Sur, where Norma Royales claimed ownership. The CFI ruled in her favor, but records were lost in a fire. Royales petitioned for reconstitution without publication, which the RTC granted. The Republic appealed, arguing publication was necessary. The Supreme Court ruled publication mandatory under Act 3110, requiring Royales to refile with proper notice, but no relitigation was needed.
