44 TUESDAY, MAY 8, 2012Mr. Ginez. It is found, Your Honor, in Section 9, Execution of Judgments for Money, HowEnforced, and this is under paragraph (b), Satisfaction by Levy. And I direct the attention of theesteemed Counsel of the Defendant on subparagraph (4), and it states, I read it for the record: “Realproperty, stocks, shares, debts, credits, and other personal property or any interest in either real orpersonal property may be levied upon in like manner and with like effect as under a writ of attachment.”The Presiding Officer. All right.Mr. Ginez. So, maybe, Justice Cuevas has forgotten his rules, Your Honor. [Laughter]Mr. Cuevas. I have been teaching the subject for no less than three decades, Your Honor. Andthe law, together with the jurisprudence and the point, is very specific. You do not apply the rule onattachment. What the law simply means by the levy could be effected similar to that of attachment ismerely an analogy of the process that will have to be undertaken. But, definitely, the rule on attachmentdoes not apply in execution.The Presiding Officer. At any rate, this will be evaluated by the Court. What is material hereis, he is testing the credibility of this Witness. Because even the Court is interested to find out whetherindeed there was machination in the....to be frank about it, whether there was machination in the saleof the shares.Mr. Cuevas. Yes, Your Honor. We are very appreciative for the Court going that far.The Presiding Officer. That is the understanding of this Chair with the tendency of the questions.Mr. Cuevas. But if the Court will notice, Your Honor, and with the kind indulgence of the Court,the question before was predicated on Rule 57, not on this particular rule that he is now citing.The Presiding Officer. Anyway, let us not wrangle on this. We are all intelligent people.We will take that into account. Let the Witness answer.Mr. Cuevas. What is the question now?Mr. Ginez. Ang tanong ko po sa inyo, Sheriff, ay iyong Notice of Garnishment ninyo na nakaaddresspo doon sa Basa-Guidote Enterprises ay hindi po nai-serve sa presidente o sa managingagent nito, hindi po ba? At ang totoo ay sa isang, sabi ninyo, caretaker lamang ng bahay na iyon.Mr. Bisnar. Opo, pero may sumagot po na officer ng Basa-Guidote.Mr. Ginez. Iyon. Pupunta po tayo doon, Sheriff. So, pagkatapos po ninyong mai-serve angNotice of Garnishment, ang sabi po ninyo ay may sumagot na “officer” ng Basa-Guidote?Mr. Bisnar. Opo.Mr. Ginez. Ito po ay si Cristina Roco Corona, Assistant Corporate Secretary, sa pamamagitanng isang sulat na ibinigay sa inyo.Mr. Bisnar. Opo.Mr. Ginez. And this was marked by the Defense, Your Honor, as Exhibit “179”.Mr. Bisnar. Opo.Mr. Ginez. At hindi po ba, Sheriff, na si—at alam ninyo na si Cristina Roco Corona ay siyarin ang private complainant sa kasong ito?
TUESDAY, MAY 8, 2012 45Mr. Bisnar. Opo.Mr. Ginez. Siya rin ang iniuutos ng Korte, ng Branch 216, na babayaran kung sakalingmare-recover ninyo iyong P500,000.00, hindi po ba?Mr. Bisnar. Opo.Mr. Ginez. Ngayon, Sheriff, dito sa Reply ni Ginang Corona, ang sinasabi sa inyo, and Iwould like to quote it for the record, Your Honor, if I will be allowed. “In reply to the notice ofgarnishment dated May 14, 2003, please be informed that based on records submitted by the accusedin Court, the stockholdings claimed by Jose Maria Basa III and Raymunda G. Basa in Basa-GuidoteEnterprises Inc. are as follows:Stockholder Raymunda Basa, number of shares — 110, amount — P11,000; Jose Maria Basa III,number of shares — 4,729, amount — P472,900 or a total of P4,839 shares in the amount ofP483,900.”Ang tanong ko po sa inyo, Sheriff, noong ibinigay po ito ni Ginang Corona, ito po aytinanggap ninyo na as gospel truth?Mr. Bisnar. Dahil wala naman....Sila ho ang title niya doon sa corporation eh wala namanakong dahilan para hindi paniwalaan iyon.Mr. Ginez. Hindi po kayo nagpunta sa Securities and Exchange Commission?Mr. Bisnar. Hindi po.Mr. Ginez. Sheriff, hindi po ba sinabi sa inyo ni Gng. Cristina Corona na siya ay nag-file ngisang petisyon sa Korte, sa probate court, na ang sinasabi niya sa korte na iyon, ang nagmamayaring shares of stocks or about 87% ng shares of stocks ng Basa-Guidote Enterprises ay angkanyang lola na si Asuncion Roco? Hindi po ba sinabi sa inyo ito?Mr. Cuevas. Before the Witness answers, may he be served with a copy of the alleged pleading,Your Honor, the alleged statement of fact appearing in the pleading.The Presiding Officer. If the Prosecution has, please show the pleading.Mr. Ginez. We reserve, Your Honor, that the voluminous records that we have, unfortunately,we did not bring the petition for probate but it is a fact, Your Honor, that there was a probate....Mr. Cuevas. With the kind permission of the Court, therefore, we will move to strike out thequestion, Your Honor.The Presiding Officer. Let it stay in the record.Senator Sotto. Mr. President, may we recognize Senator Lacson?Senator Lacson. I am sorry to interject, Mr. President. Interesado lamang po ako. Ito pongmga kapanahunan na pinag-uusapan natin, kung alam ng Counsel ng Prosecution or ng Defense,may katungkulan po ba sa gobyerno si Chief Justice Corona? Siya po ba ay private citizen or kungmay katungkulan man, ano po ba ang katungkulan niya itong mga panahon na ating dini-discusssa ngayon?Mr. Ginez. Mayroon na pong katungkulan.Senator Lacson. Ano po iyon?
