	GR NO. 149231 2006-07-17	ARACLEO ERASUSTA v. AMORIN GARCIA, J.
While, it is a familiar doctrine that a forged or fraudulent document may become the root of a valid title,[16] if the property has already been transferred from the name of the owner to that of the forger, the same is not true. This doctrine serves to emphasize that a person who deals with registered property in good faith will acquire good title from a forger and be absolutely protected by a Torrens title. In the final analysis, the resolution of this case depends on whether the respondent Bank is a purchaser in good faith.
