	GR NO. 166980 2007-04-03	CARMELO C. BERNARDO v. PEOPLE CARPIO MORALES, J.
Petitioner's reliance on the 1989 case of Vda. de Capulong v. Workmen's Insurance Co., Inc.[19] on this point does not thus lie. Parenthetically, the factual milieus in Vda. de Capulong and the present case are dissimilar. The respondent in Vda. de Capulong specifically moved that it be given an additional period "from receipt of the order" of the court allowing extension, and the court granted an extension of time without indicating when it would commence. In the present case, petitioner prayed for a period of extension to be counted from the expiration of the original period or "from June 1, 2004," which date the appellate court correctly used in reckoning the extension.[20]
