This case has been cited 4 times or more.

	GR No. 190120 2014-11-11	CIVIL AVIATION AUTHORITY OF PHILIPPINES EMPLOYEES’ UNION v. CIVIL AVIATION AUTHORITY OF PHILIPPINES VILLARAMA, JR., J.
The Court agrees with the postulation of the OGCC that the nullification of the assailed Authority Orders has become moot and academic considering that Director General Cusi already issued a Memorandum[68] dated March 12, 2010, terminating the services of all the personnel appointed by Director General Ciron. An issue is said to have become moot and academic when it ceases to present a justiciable controversy so that a declaration on the issue would be of no practical use or value.[69] The Court will therefore abstain from expressing its opinion in a case where no legal relief is needed or called for.[70]
	GR No. 201715 2013-12-11	REPUBLIC v. MANILA ELECTRIC COMPANY BERSAMIN, J.
With the intervening rendition of the decision on the merits, the challenge against the interlocutory orders of the RTC designed to prevent the RTC from proceeding with the pre-trial and the trial on the merits was rendered moot and academic. In other words, any determination of the issue on the interlocutory orders was left without any practical value.[26] A case that is moot and academic because of supervening events ceases to present any justiciable controversy. The courts of law will not determine moot and academic questions, for they should not engage in academic declarations and determine moot questions.[27]
	GR No. 188376 2011-12-14	LAND BANK OF PHILIPPINES v. FEDERICO SUNTAY BERSAMIN, J.
At first glance, indeed, RARAD Casabar's December 15, 2008 order seemingly rendered the reliefs prayed for by the petition for certiorari unnecessary and moot. An issue is said to become moot and academic when it ceases to present a justiciable controversy, so that a declaration on the issue would be of no practical use or value.[72]
	GR NO. 171396 2006-05-03	PROF. RANDOLF S. DAVID v. GLORIA MACAPAGAL-ARROYO SANDOVAL-GUTIERREZ, J.
A moot and academic case is one that ceases to present a justiciable controversy by virtue of supervening events,[26] so that a declaration thereon would be of no practical use or value.[27] Generally, courts decline jurisdiction over such case[28] or dismiss it on ground of mootness.[29]
