	GR Nos. 167583-84 2010-06-16	ARTISTICA CERAMICA v. CIUDAD DEL CARMEN HOMEOWNER'S ASSOCIATION PERALTA, J.
Sometime in 1997, respondents sent letter complaints[4] to various government agencies complaining of petitioners' activities. The complaints stemmed from the alleged noise, air and water pollution emanating from the ceramic-manufacturing activities of petitioners. In addition, respondents also complained that the activities of petitioners were both safety and fire hazards to their communities. As a result of the complaints filed, Closure Orders and Cease-and-Desist Orders[5] were issued against the operations of petitioners.
	GR No. 171586 2009-07-15	NATIONAL POWER CORPORATION v. PROVINCE OF QUEZON BRION, J.
This case is not one of first impression. We have previously ruled against the NPC's claimed exemptions under the LGC in the cases of FELS Energy, Inc. v. Province of Batangas[8] and NPC v. CBAA.[9] Based on the principles we declared in those cases, as well as the defects we found in the NPC's tax assessment protest, we conclude that the petition lacks merit.
