Supreme Court (SC) (MANILA BULLETIN) It is “only one of the indices of the fair market value of a real estate,” the Supreme Court (SC) emphasized as it reiterated its previous rulings on the legal issue. With its resolution released last March 2, the SC affirmed the Court of Appeals (CA) ruling which upheld the trial court’s decision that spouses Roger and Angelita Mirandilla should be paid P3,750,000 instead of only P575,000 for their 250 square-meter land in Valenzuela City. Almost seven years have elapsed from the time the Valenzuela City regional trial court (RTC) handed down on June 26, 2014 its ruling in favor of the Mirandilla couple.
