| It bears stressing that although its decision had become final and executory, the Sixteenth Division of the CA retained jurisdiction over the case to the exclusion of all other divisions, and to control, in furtherance of justice, the conduct of the Labor Arbiter in the enforcement of its decision. A case on appeal to the CA, and in which an order of execution has been issued, is considered as still pending, so that all proceedings on the execution are proceedings in the suit. Thus, the proceedings in CA-G.R. SP No. 58836 had not been terminated, and no other court had jurisdiction to hear and decide questions incidental to the enforcement of the decision of the CA, or its award in favor of petitioner by the Labor Arbiter.[31] The various divisions of the CA are, in a sense, coordinate courts, and a division of the appellate court should not interfere with the enforcement of the decision of the other divisions of the court, otherwise confusion could ensue and might seriously hinder the administration of justice.[32] | |||||
