	GR No. 166301 2008-02-29	ST. MICHAEL SCHOOL OF CAVITE v. MASAITO DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION and REXLON REALTY GROUP VELASCO JR., J.
We have held that the requirement regarding verification of a pleading is intended to assure that the pleading's allegations are accurate, filed in good faith, and not the product of the imagination or a matter of speculation.[19] While courts and litigants alike are directed to abide strictly by the procedural rules,[20] we have relaxed these rules on the basis of justifiable circumstances and substantial compliance.[21]
