PERALTA, J.
In varying language, our Rules of Court, in speaking of burden of proof in civil cases, states that each party must prove his own affirmative allegations and that the burden of proof lies on the party who would be defeated if no evidence were given on either side. Thus, in civil cases, the burden of proof is generally on the plaintiff, with respect to his complaint.[24] In the case at bar, it is petitioner's burden to prove that it is entitled to its claims during the period in dispute.
