Distinguish between Delito Continuado (Continuing Crime), Delito Complejo,

Delito compuesto, and Special Complex Crime

For delito continuado to exist there should be a plurality of acts performed during a
period of time; unity of penal provision violated; and unity of criminal intent or
purpose, which means that two or more violations of the same penal provisions are
united in one and the same intent or resolution leading to the perpetration of the
same criminal purpose or aim [Santiago v. Garchitorena, 228 SCRA 214 (1993)]

Delito compuesto refers to a crime where a single act constitutes two or more grave
or less grave felonies (Sec. 48(1), RPC)

Delito complejo refers to cases when an offense is a necessary means for committing
the other (Sec. 48(2), RPC)

Special complex crime refers to cases where the law provides a single penalty for
two or more component offenses. [466 Phil. 324 (2004)]
