	GR NO. 150157 2007-01-25	MAURICIO MANLICLIC v. MODESTO CALAUNAN CHICO-NAZARIO, J.
We now go to the award of damages. The trial court correctly awarded the amount of P40,838.00 as actual damages representing the amount paid by respondent for the towing and repair of his jeep.[47] As regards the awards for moral and exemplary damages, same, under the circumstances, must be modified. The P100,000.00 awarded by the trial court as moral damages must be reduced to P50,000.00.[48] Exemplary damages are imposed by way of example or correction for the public good.[49] The amount awarded by the trial court must, likewise, be lowered to P50,000.00.[50] The award of P15,000.00 for attorney's fees and expenses of litigation is in order and authorized by law.[51]
	GR NO. 149749 2006-07-25	AGAPITA DIAZ v. CA CORONA, J.
In a contract of carriage, it is presumed that the common carrier is at fault or is negligent when a passenger dies or is injured. In fact, there is even no need for the court to make an express finding of fault or negligence on the part of the common carrier. This statutory presumption may only be overcome by evidence that the carrier exercised extraordinary diligence.[20]
