This case has been cited 1 times or more.

PARDO, J.
On October 5, 1992, the trial court rendered a decision declaring respondent as entitled to the other half of the proceeds of the right of way which was P6,006,332.50, and authorized the respondent to withdraw the amount based upon the finding that respondent is the sole owner of the road lots known as the Victoria Valley Blvd.[9] Petitioner VLR, Inc. appealed from the decision to the Court of Appeals.[10] On August 27, 1996, the Court of Appeals dismissed the appeal for failure of petitioner VLR, Inc. to file an appellant's brief. The dismissal has become final and executory. Hence, this petition has become moot and academic. In Avedana v. Court of Appeals,[11] we held that "where a related case had resolved all the varied issues raised between the parties," then the case is deemed moot and academic.
