| It bears stressing that a decision that has acquired finality, as in this case, becomes immutable and unalterable. [15] A final judgment may no longer be modified in any respect, even if the modification is meant to correct erroneous conclusions of fact or law. [16] In short, once a judgment becomes final and executory, it can no longer be disturbed no matter how erroneous it may be [17] and nothing further can be done therewith except to execute it.

| Settled is the rule that after a judgment becomes final, no additions can be made thereto and nothing can be done therewith except its execution.[21] Once a judgment becomes final and executory, it can no longer be disturbed no matter how erroneous it may be.[22] In any case, no error was committed in this case. The CA acted correctly in affirming the order of the court a quo to issue an alias writ of execution so that the final orders of the courts could be finally implemented and justice done to the deserving party. It is almost trite to say that execution is the fruit and end of the suit and is the life of the law.[23] When a final judgment becomes executory, it thereby becomes immutable and unalterable.[24] | |||||
