Appellate court TROs Lee case vs. Pag-IBIG

CITY OF SAN FERNANDO–Vice President Jejomar C. Binay said the Court of Appeals (CA) stopped a Makati City judge from implementing its earlier rulings favoring Globe Asiatique Realty Holdings Corp. (GA) president Delfin Lee.

Binay said the CA issued a temporary restraining order (TRO) against Makati Regional Trial Court Branch 28 Judge Eugene Paras, who granted the civil suit of Lee against Home Development Mutual Fund (Pag-IBIG Fund).

“We welcome the decision of the court. And we are hopeful that this decision will advance our demand for justice for those who have been victimized by Delfin Lee,” Binay said.

In a Resolution promulgated last March 27, the CA through Justice Stephen C. Cruz ruled that unless restrained, the decisions rendered by Judge Paras will further place PagIBIG Fund “in an unjust and inequitable position, and will cause grave and irreparable injury, not only to the petitioner, but more importantly, to the public general.”

It will be recalled that following the filing of a syndicated estafa case against Delfin Lee and Dexter Lee in relation to GA’s alleged fraudulent transactions with the PagIBIG Fund, GA retaliated by filing a civil case against the Fund before the RTC of Makati.

Judge Paras then summarily decided the case in favor of GA without a formal presentation of evidence.

In issuing the TRO against the summary judgment rendered by Judge Paras, the CA noted that “[r]emarkable is the fact that petitioner (PagIBIG Fund) was defrauded of billions of pesos already, for which numerous other cases, including criminal and civil cases, against private respondents are already pending before the appropriate tribunals.”

The CA granted the TRO upon the application of the PagIBIG Fund which claimed in its Petition that Judge Paras gravely abused his discretion when he summarily rendered the assailed decisions in favor of GA without the benefit of a trial.

The CA noted in its decision that “[u]nder the circumstances, We hold and so rule that petitioner would stand to suffer grave and irreparable injury if the writ of execution of the assailed Resolutions is implemented at this time and pending the resolution of the instant petition.”

Meanwhile, both Delfin Lee and Dexter Lee remain at large despite the outstanding warrants for their arrest issued by the RTC of Pampanga where the syndicated estafa against them is pending. ●Marna Dagumboy-del Rosario
