DEL CASTILLO, J.
Absent the circumstance of unauthorized use[48] or that the subject vehicle was stolen[49] which are valid defenses available to a registered owner, Oscar Jr. cannot escape liability for quasi-delict resulting from his jeep's use.

CORONA, J.
He further argues that this was the underlying theory behind Duavit vs. CA[10] wherein the court absolved the registered owner from liability after finding that the vehicle was virtually stolen from the owner's garage by a person who was neither authorized nor employed by the owner. Petitioner concludes that the ruling in Duavit and not the one in First Malayan should be applicable to him.
