PAG-ASA FISHPOND CORPORATION v. BERNARDO JIMENEZ

This case has been cited 1 times or more.

2009-09-18
CORONA, J.
This issue of assessed value as a jurisdictional element in accion publiciana was not raised by the parties nor threshed out in their pleadings.[27] Be that as it may, the Court can motu proprio consider and resolve this question because jurisdiction is conferred only by law.[28] It cannot be acquired through, or waived by, any act or omission of the parties.[29]
