| In the case at bench, the records reveal that when Teofilo died intestate in 1992, his only surviving compulsory heirs are respondent Felicidad and their son, Teofilo II. Under the law on succession, successional rights are transmitted from the moment of death of the decedent and the compulsory heirs are called to succeed by operation of law.[30] | |||||

| First. Petitioners Bonifacia Aranda, Pelagia Aranda, Dominador Aranda, Vivencio Aranda, Lolita Aranda, Jeffrey Aranda, and Feliciano Aranda contend that they are the real parties-in-interest in the CA and in this Court, and thus had a cause of action for the nullification of the decision of the RTC in Civil Case No. BCV-82-16 and for the reversal of the CA decision.They joined their parents, spouses Alejo Aranda and Simeona Joson-Aranda as plaintiffs in the CA, on their claim that they are the "compulsory heirs" of said spouses. However, under the law on succession, "the rights to the succession are transmitted from the moment of death ofthe decedent,"[30] and that "compulsory heirs are called to succeed by operation of law;"[31] as such, petitioners will only become compulsory heirs of their parents upon the death of the latter. | |||||
