PCSO formally issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Lease
Contract of an on-line lottery system for the PCSO. PGMC then
submitted its bid to PCSO. The submission was preceded by
complaints by the Bid and Awards Committee's Chairperson. On
21 October 1993, the Office of the President announced that it
had given the respondent PGMC the go-signal to operate the
country's on-line lottery system. KILOSBAYAN sent an open
letter to Presidential Fidel V. Ramos strongly opposing the
setting up to the on-line lottery system on the basis of serious
moral and ethical considerations Kilosbayan requested for
copies of the documents pertaining to the lottery award from
then Exec Sec Guingona Jr. but before release of the documents,
the Contract of Lease was finally executed by PCSO and PGMC. To
stop Malacanang, Kilosbayan with co-petitioners filed this
petition.
Petitioners submit that the PCSO cannot validly enter into the
assailed Contract of Lease with the PGMC because it is an
arrangement wherein the PCSO would hold and conduct the online lottery system in "collaboration" or "association" with the
PGMC, in violation of Section 1(B) of R.A. No. 1169, as amended
by BP 42, which prohibits the PCSO from holding and conducting
charity sweepstakes races, lotteries, and other similar activities
"in collaboration, association, or joint venture with any person,
association, company, or entity, foreign or domestic
Issue:
W/N the challenged Contract of Lease violate or contravene the
exception in Section 1 of R.A. No. 1169, as amended by BP 42,
which prohibits the PCSO from holding and conducting lotteries
"in collaboration, association, or joint venture with" another.
Held/Ratio:
YES.

20% to be used for the payment of the ice making machine which
was purchased for the business.
For and in consideration of the sum of P500,000.00, however,
Biondo subsequently executed a Deed of Assignment,
transferring all his rights and interests in the business in favor
Eden, the wife of Jaso. With Biondos eventual departure from
the country, the Spouses Jaso caused their lawyer to send
Josefina a letter apprising her of their acquisition of said
Frenchmans share in the business and formally demanding an
accounting, inventory, and remittance of their portion of its
profits.
Sps. Jaso filed a Complaint against Sps. Realubit, and their alleged
dummies, for specific performance, accounting, examination,
audit and inventory of assets and properties, dissolution of the
joint venture, and appointment of a receiver with the RTC.
In its decision, the RTC ruled in favor of the Sps. Jaso; that the
latter had been subrogated to Biondos rights in the business in
view of their valid acquisition of the latters share as capitalist
partner.
The CA ordered the dissolution of the joint venture between
Realubit and Biondo and the subsequent conduct of accounting,
liquidation of assets and division of shares of the joint venture
business.

The Facts
Sisters Antonia Torres and Emeteria Baring, herein petitioners,
entered into a "joint venture agreement" with Respondent
Manuel Torres for the development of a parcel of land into a
subdivision. Pursuant to the contract, they executed a Deed of
Sale covering the said parcel of land in favor of respondent, who
then had it registered in his name. By mortgaging the property,
respondent obtained from Equitable Bank a loan of P40,000
which, under the Joint Venture Agreement, was to be used for the
development of the subdivision. 4 All three of them also agreed to
share the proceeds from the sale of the subdivided lots.
The project did not push through, and the land was subsequently
foreclosed by the bank.
According to petitioners, the project failed because of
"respondent's lack of funds or means and skills." They add that
respondent used the loan not for the development of the
subdivision, but in furtherance of his own company, Universal
Umbrella Company.

First, they argue that the Joint Venture Agreement is void under
Article 1422 14 of the Civil Code, because it is the direct result of
an earlier illegal contract, which was for the sale of the land
without valid consideration.
In the same breath, however, they assert that under those very
same contracts, respondent is liable for his failure to implement
the project. Because the agreement entitled them to receive 60
percent of the proceeds from the sale of the subdivision lots, they
pray that respondent pay them damages equivalent to 60
percent of the value of the property. 9

ALOJADO. ATIENZA. BALDERAMA. CAMARAO. CARANDANG. CRUZ. ESTILLES. GARCIA. GONZAGA. HUI. LAZARO. SENAJON
HELD: YES.
RATIO:
HLURB Arbiter and Board correctly held TIOSEJO liable
alongside PPGI for the spouses claims pursuant to Section 20 in
relation to Section 38 of P.D. 957. By the express terms of the
JVA, it appears that TIOSEJO not only retained ownership of the
property pending completion of the condominium project but
had also bound itself to answer liabilities proceeding from
contracts entered into by PPGI with third parties. Article VIII,
Section 1 of the JVA distinctly provides as follows:
Sec. 1. Rescission and damages.

JG Summit v CA
FACTS
The National Investment and Development Corporation (NIDC),
a government corporation, entered into a Joint Venture
Agreement (JVA) with Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. of Kobe,
Japan (KAWASAKI) for the construction, operation and
management of the Subic National Shipyard, Inc. (SNS) which
subsequently became the Philippine Shipyard and Engineering

ISSUE
Whether KAWASAKI had a valid right of first refusal over
PHILSECO shares under the JVA considering that PHILSECO
owned land until the time of the bidding and KAWASAKI already
held 40% of PHILSECOs equity.
HELD/RATIO
YES. First of all, the right of first refusal is a property right of
PHILSECO shareholders, KAWASAKI and NIDC, under the terms
of their JVA. This right allows them to purchase the shares of
their co-shareholder before they are offered to a third party. The
agreement of co-shareholders to mutually grant this right to
each other, by itself, does not constitute a violation of the
provisions of the Constitution limiting land ownership to
Filipinos and Filipino corporations. As PHILYARDS correctly
puts it, if PHILSECO still owns land, the right of first refusal can
be validly assigned to a qualified Filipino entity in order to
maintain the 60%-40% ratio. This transfer, by itself, does not
amount to a violation of the Anti-Dummy Laws, absent proof of
