| Petitioner's case is to annul the agreement and deed of sale based on the allegation that they are forgeries, and that respondents were parties to the fraud; since no new title was issued in respondents' favor, there is no new title to annul. Indeed, if the agreement and deed of sale are forgeries, then they are a nullity and convey no title.[38] The underlying principle is that no one can give what one does not have. Nemo dat quod non habet. | |||||

| The Deed of Absolute Sale dated 10 November 1992, a forged deed, is a nullity and conveys no title.[32] Paragraph 2 of Section 53 of Presidential Decree No. 1529 reads: In all cases of registration procured by fraud, the owner may pursue all his legal and equitable remedies against the parties to such fraud without prejudice, however, to the rights of any innocent holder for value of a certificate of title. After the entry of the decree of registration on the original petition or application, any subsequent registration procured by the presentation of a forged duplicate certificate of title, or of a forged deed or other instrument, shall be null and void. | |||||
