| In the present case, the 30 March 2004 decision and the 17 May 2004 resolution of the trial court had become final and executory upon the lapse of the reglementary period to appeal.[30] Petitioner's motion for reconsideration of the 17 May 2004 resolution, which the trial court received on 28 June 2004, was clearly filed out of time. Applying the doctrine laid down in Tuason, the alleged negligence of counsel resulting in petitioner's loss of the right to appeal is not a ground for vacating the trial court's judgments. | |||||

| The Court also notes that the RTC erred in allowing petitioners the right to repurchase said property within thirty (30) days from receipt of the RTC Decision. By express provision, Article 1606 grants the vendor a retro thirty (30) days "from the time final judgment was rendered," not from the defendant's receipt of the judgment. The Court has construed "final judgment" to mean one that has become final and executory.[15] | |||||
