Nature and description of the legal proceedings

Civil Case.

KPH filed a complaint on 26 September 2003 against Philippine National Oil Company (PNOC) for specific performance with the Regional Trial Court (RTC) in Batangas City for the enforcement of the contract relating to the option to purchase parcels of land in Batangas. Judgment was rendered in January 2006 in favor of KPH ordering PNOC to accept the payment of P4.1 million, which was consigned with the Clerk of Court, as full and complete payment of the purchase price, and to execute a Deed of Absolute Sale in favor of KPH. PNOC filed an appeal with the Court of Appeals (CA) in the same year which was dismissed on 19 December 2011.

On 25 July 2016, Supreme Court (SC) affirmed the decision of the CA in December 2011 in the resolution dated 14 May 2012 and upheld KPH's option to buy the land and remanded the case to the RTC of Batangas City. On 14 December 2016, SC’s decision became final and executory and was recorded in the Books of Entries of Judgments.

On 26 April, 2017, KPH filed a Motion for Issuance of Writ of Execution before the RTC. The RTC denied the request on 24 September 2018. Thereafter, KPH filed several motions for reconsideration between October 2018 until April 2019. Subsequently, in April 2019, the Presiding Judge inhibited herself and the case was re-raffled to Branch 8.

On 29 July 2019, KPH filed its Motion for Joinder of Additional Defendant praying that the court issue an order directing the joinder of PNOC Renewable Corporation considering that the property at issue in the case was transferred to it during the pendency of the case.

On 11 December 2020, RTC Branch 8 ordered the parties to submit their respective memoranda with KPH awaiting its final resolution.

Considering the case has been ongoing for the past 18 years, KPH decided to monetize its interest. On 2 June 2021, KPH signed agreements selling its interest. As a condition of the sale, necessary motions for substitution as party in said case were made to replace KPH as a party. On 7 June 2021, KPH received a copy of the buyer’s entry of appearance.

The case is still ongoing with the recent filing of the motion for substitution.
