REPUBLIC v. UNIMEX MICRO-ELECTRONICS GMBH
CORONA, J.
Indeed, the general rule is that once a decision becomes final and executory, it cannot be altered or modified. However, this rule is not absolute. In some cases,[15] we held that where facts or events transpire after a decision has become executory, which facts constitute a supervening cause rendering the final judgment unenforceable, said judgment may be modified. Also, a final judgment may be altered when its execution becomes impossible or unjust.
