	GR NO. 148971 2006-11-29	ALBERTO GARONG v. PEOPLE VELASCO, JR., J.
We reiterate that the determination of the sufficiency of evidence and the said court's determination on the credibility of witnesses are a question of fact that is not, as a general rule, subject to the Court's review.[28] As regards petitioner's claim that motive was not proven during trial, the CA reasoned:An apparent lack of motive for committing a criminal act, as argued by accused-appellant, does not necessarily mean that there is none. It may be hidden away or inaccessible to Our observation (People vs. Taneo, 58 Phil. 255).
	GR No. 152618 2004-08-12	JOHNNY REY TUBURAN v. PEOPLE QUISUMBING, J.
With respect to damages, the award of P60,000 as civil indemnity should be reduced to P50,000 in accordance with prevailing jurisprudence.[30] The award of P50,000 as moral damages is in order.[31] The award of actual damages in the amounts of P20,000 as burial expenses and P1,615.45 in hospital expenses is supported by the evidence on record and must be sustained.
