| It was on June 22, 1963 when Republic Act No. 3749 took effect that a CFI branch in Tagaytay City was set up.[25] That amendment to Republic Act No. 296 provided that four judges would preside "over the Courts of First Instance of the Province of Cavite and the Cities of Cavite, Tagaytay and Trece Martires" who would be "judges of the first, second, third and fourth branches" of that court. Because the rule has always been that the court having territorial jurisdiction over the property should take cognizance of its registration,[26] upon the creation of the Tagaytay City branch, petitioners' application for registration should have been transferred to that court inasmuch as the property involved is located in that city. | |||||
