	GR NO. 166105 2007-03-22	ATTY. GABRIEL B. OCTAVA v. COMELEC QUISUMBING, J.
We agree with Lubigan's submission. The essence of due process is to be afforded a reasonable opportunity to be heard and to submit any evidence in support of his defense.[12] Where opportunity to be heard, either through oral arguments or pleadings, is accorded, there is no denial of due process.[13] What is offensive to due process is the denial of the opportunity to be heard.[14]
	GR No. 152436 2003-06-20	NATIONAL POWER CORPORATION v. SPS. IGMEDIO AND LIWAYWAY CHIONG AND HEIRS OF AGRIFINA ANGELES QUISUMBING, J.
(4) Judgment must be rendered upon lawful hearing.[14] What is repugnant to due process is the denial of the opportunity to be heard.[15] As pointed out that the petitioner was afforded this opportunity is beyond question. Having failed to make use of this opportunity, the petitioner cannot justifiably claim now that its right to due process has been violated.
