| In civil cases, the burden of proof is on the plaintiff to establish his case by a preponderance of evidence. If he claims a right granted or created by law, he must prove his claim by competent evidence. He must rely on the strength of his own evidence and not on the weakness of that of his opponent.[40] In the instant case, the MeTC, the RTC, as well as the Court of Appeals, had correctly ruled that respondent, as administratrix of the Barrios estate, had shown sufficient proof of ownership over the subject land covered by TCT No. 100777 so as to entitle her to the return of the same. | |||||
