| This Court has reiterated that the purpose of prescribing time limitations for enforcing judgments is to prevent parties from sleeping on their rights.[14] Far from sleeping on its rights, RCBC has pursued persistently its action against Serra in accordance with law. On the other hand, Serra has continued to evade his obligation by raising issues of technicality. While strict compliance with the rules of procedure is desired, liberal interpretation is warranted in cases where a strict enforcement of the rules will not serve the ends of justice.[15] | |||||

| Notably, on various instances, we have set aside technicalities for reasons of equity. We are inclined to apply the same liberality in view of the peculiar situation in this case.[35] | |||||
