| We find both decisions critically relevant to the instant dispute. In fact, they should have guided the courts below in the disposition of the controversy at their respective levels. To repeat, these decisions respectively confirm the right of NAMAWU to its labor claims[37] and affirm the right of GHI to its financial and mortgage claims over the real and personal properties of MMC, as will be explained below. The assailed CA decision apparently failed to consider the impact of these two decisions on the case at bar. Thus, we find it timely to reiterate that: "courts have also taken judicial notice of previous cases to determine whether or not the case pending is a moot one or whether or not a previous ruling is applicable to the case under consideration."[38] | |||||
