Opo.The Presiding Officer. Nag-object ba si Cristina Corona?Mr. Bisnar. Hindi po nag-object si Mrs. Corona.The Presiding Officer. Hindi.Mr. Bisnar. Hindi po, Your Honor.The Presiding Officer. Samantala, tinatanong ng Husgado ito sapagkat sang-ayon sa tsekena tinanggap niya bilang konsiderasyon doon sa pagbebenta ng lupa ng Basa-Guidote, siya aytrustee ng korporasyon. Alam niya na ang nilalaman ng korporasyon na iyon ay P34.7 million.Bakit pinapayagan niya bilang trustee ng korporasyon na binibili ng isang tao iyong more than90% ng korporasyon for P28,000.00 samantalang ang judgment na dapat sagutin noong sharesof stocks ay half a million? Maiisplika ba ninyo iyon?Mr. Bisnar. Hindi ko ho alam kung bakit ganoon po.The Presiding Officer. Hindi nag-object iyong trustee? Hindi nag-object si Cristina Corona?Mr. Bisnar. Hindi po. Doon po sa P28,000.00 na amount, hindi po.The Presiding Officer. Counsel?Mr. Ginez. May I continue, Your Honor. And we fully adopt, Your Honor, the questions ofthe Presiding Officer.The Presiding Officer. No, I am just trying to clarify, for the information of this Court.Mr. Ginez. Thank you, Your Honor. And in the same line, Your Honor, ayon po rito sa sulatni Cristina Corona sa inyo tungkol po doon sa pagmamay-ari ng shares of stock, ang sabi niyarito ang halaga ng 4,839 shares ay P483,900.00. Noon po bang nag-bid si Carla Castillo, hindipo ba nag-object o tumutol man lamang si Cristina Corona dahil ito ay mababa doon sa amountna sinasabi niyang halaga ng shares of stocks?Mr. Roy. I believe that was just answered by the Sheriff, Your Honor.Mr. Ginez. This is different, Your Honor, because the good Presiding Justice, Your Honor, askedabout the P34.6 million that was paid for by the City of Manila to Cristina Corona ITF Basa-Guidote.I am asking the premise of the question is the reply itself, Your Honor, of Cristina Corona to the Noticeof Garnishment wherein she stated that the amount of the 4,839 shares is P483,900.00.Mr. Roy. I appeal to the record, Your Honor. He said clearly: Did she object? And the Sheriffsaid there was no objection whatever.The Presiding Officer. Is it the position of the Counsel for the Respondent that the trustee ofthe corporation did not object?Mr. Roy. That is right, Your Honor. That is what the Witness testified.
