Century Iron Works, Inc. v. Banas[39] explains what the proper subjects of a petition filed under Rule 45 of the Rules of Court are, viz: A petition for review on certiorari under Rule 45 is an appeal from a ruling of a lower tribunal on pure questions of law. It is only in exceptional circumstances[40] that we admit and review questions of fact.

Also, the remedy provided under the Rules of Court from a decision of the CA is an appeal by certiorari under its Rule 45.[11] Instead of instituting a certiorari petition, 680 Home should have filed an appeal under Rule 45, especially considering that the issue raised here is primarily legal in nature.[12]

LEONEN, J.
A question of fact exists "when the doubt arises as to the truth or falsity of the alleged facts."[75]  On the other hand, there is a question of law "when there is doubt as to what the law is on a certain state of facts."[76]  As this court explained in Century Iron Works, Inc. v. Bañas:[77]

LEONARDO-DE CASTRO, J.
The Court had occasion to explain in Century Iron Works, Inc. v. Bañas[68] the concept of gross and habitual neglect of duties. Thus:Gross negligence connotes want or absence of or failure to exercise slight care or diligence, or the entire absence of care. It evinces a thoughtless disregard of consequences without exerting any effort to avoid them. Fraud and willful neglect of duties imply bad faith of the employee in failing to perform his job, to the detriment of the employer and the latter's business. Habitual neglect, on the other hand, implies repeated failure to perform one's duties for a period of time, depending upon the circumstances. (Citations omitted, emphasis supplied.)

Bañas[42] is instructive anent what is the subject of review in a petition filed under Rule 45 of the Rules of Court, viz: A petition for review on certiorari under Rule 45 is an appeal from a ruling of a lower tribunal on pure questions of law. It is only in exceptional circumstances that we admit and review questions of fact.
