	GR No. 199338 2013-01-21	ELEAZAR S. PADILLO v. RURAL BANK OF NABUNTURAN PERLAS-BERNABE, J.
On December 29, 2009, the NLRC's Fifth Division reversed and set aside the LA's ruling and ordered respondents to pay Padillo the amount of P164,903.70 as separation pay, on top of the P100,000.00 Philam Life Plan benefit.[15] Relying on the case of Abaquin Security and Detective Agency, Inc. v. Atienza (Abaquin),[16] the NLRC applied the Labor Code provision on termination on the ground of disease particularly, Article 297 thereof (formerly, Article 323) holding that while Padillo did resign, he did so only because of his poor health condition.[17] Respondents moved for reconsideration but the same was denied by the NLRC in its Resolution dated March 31, 2010.[18] Aggrieved, respondents filed a petition for certiorari with the CA.
