ERIBERTO P. ROSARIO v. FILOMENO CARANDANG

This case has been cited 1 times or more.

2005-09-23
The cases[24] cited by petitioners are not applicable here.  These cases involve amendments on complaints that confer jurisdiction on courts over which they originally had none.  This is not true in the case at bar.  As discussed above, the RTC acquired jurisdiction over the subject matter upon the filing of the original complaint.  It did not lose jurisdiction over the same when it dismissed it on the ground of improper venue.  The amendment merely laid down the proper venue of the case.
