ESTEFANIA DE GUZMAN v. PEOPLE

This case has been cited 1 times or more.

2007-02-08
CALLEJO, SR., J.
The records show that Sepulveda was impelled to forcibly open petitioner's drawer. She needed to retrieve the benefits applications of retirees and incumbent employees of respondent-corporation, which petitioner had failed to process for payment before his leave.  The claimants sought to have their claims approved and released with dispatch. Before opening petitioner's drawer, Sepulveda saw to it that she had Kobayashi's approval. Delos Santos opened the drawer of petitioner in the presence of his co-employees in the Financial Section.  Thereafter, the claims were processed and payments were effected. Thus, Sepulveda acted in good faith.[79]
