REYES, J. |

| We have thus explained in Cocomangas Hotel Beach Resort v. Visca[48] that the CA can take cognizance of a petition for certiorari if it finds that the NLRC committed grave abuse of discretion by capriciously, whimsically, or arbitrarily disregarding evidence which are material to or decisive of the controversy. The CA cannot make this determination without looking into the evidence presented by the parties. The appellate court needs to evaluate the materiality or significance of the evidence, which are alleged to have been capriciously, whimsically, or arbitrarily disregarded by the NLRC, in relation to all other evidence on record. | |||||

CARPIO MORALES, J. |
||||
| Assuming arguendo that petitioner hired respondent initially on a per project basis, his continued rehiring, as shown by the sample payrolls converted his status to that of a regular employee. Following Cocomangas Beach Hotel Resort v. Visca,[16] the repeated and continuing need for respondent's services is sufficient evidence of the necessity, if not indispensability, of his services to petitioner's business and, as a regular employee, he could only be dismissed from employment for a just or authorized cause. | |||||
