| In resolving the issue of credibility of witnesses, we must yield to the oft-repeated rule that the trial court's evaluation of the testimony of a witness is accorded the highest respect because of its direct opportunity to observe the witnesses on the stand and to determine if they are telling the truth or not.[3] Lacking any ground in questioning the discretion of the trial court, we consider its ruling on the credibility of the witnesses as settled. | |||||

| Well-entrenched in this jurisdiction is the rule that "the Court will not interfere with the trial court's assessment of the credibility of witnesses absent any indication or showing that the trial court overlooked some material facts or gravely abused its discretion."[15] | |||||
