LEONARDO-DE CASTRO, J. |

| In Rizal Security & Protective Services, Inc v. Maraan,[71] we elaborated on the aforementioned grounds: The respondent acts without jurisdiction if he does not have the legal power to determine the case. There is excess of jurisdiction where the respondent, being clothed with the power to determine the case, oversteps his authority as determined by law. And there is grave abuse of discretion where the respondent acts in a capricious, whimsical, arbitrary or despotic manner in the exercise of his judgment as to be said to be equivalent to lack of jurisdiction. x x x. | |||||
