Ruling of the CA
Issue:
Whether or not the CA committed reversible error in dismissing the
Petition for Annulment and ruling that RTC had validly acquired
jurisdiction over petitioner Yap’s person through service of summons.
Ruling:
All told, the Court hereby upholds the finding of the CA in its
questioned Decision that petitioner Yap’s evidence does not constitute
a clear and convincing evidence to overturn the presumption of
regularity attendant to the Returns of Service.
