| We similarly ruled in Texon Manufacturing v. Millena,[29] in Sime Darby Employees Association v. National Labor Relations Commission[30] and in Westmont Pharmaceuticals v. Samaniego. [31] In Texon, we specifically said: The Order of the Labor Arbiter denying petitioners' motion to dismiss is interlocutory. It is well-settled that a denial of a motion to dismiss a complaint is an interlocutory order and hence, cannot be appealed, until a final judgment on the merits of the case is rendered.

| Indeed, hearings and resolutions of labor disputes are not governed by the strict and technical rules of evidence and procedure observed in the regular courts of law. Technical rules of procedure are not applicable in labor cases, but may apply only by analogy or in a suppletory character, for instance, when there is a need to attain substantial justice and an expeditious, practical and convenient solution to a labor problem.[28] The BLR was therefore empowered to rule on the same to avoid further delay of the case. Clearly, consideration of the issue became necessary to arrive at a just decision and complete resolution of the case. | |||||
