	GR No. 184268 2009-09-15	ERNESTO BATALLA v. COMELEC VELASCO JR., J.
Of the seven ballots protested, the trial court appreciated five of them in favor of Bataller by applying the neighborhood and intent rules as enunciated in Ferrer v. Comelec[7] and Velasco v. Commission on Elections,[8] and the application of the doctrine of idem sonans. Consequently, the MCTC found both Batalla and Bataller garnering an equal number of 113 votes each.
