	GR No. 182356 2013-12-04	DRA. LEILA A. DELA LLANA v. REBECCA BIONG BRION, J.
In the present case, the burden of proving the proximate causation between Joel's negligence and Dra. dela Llana's whiplash injury rests on Dra. dela Llana. She must establish by preponderance of evidence that Joel's negligence, in its natural and continuous sequence, unbroken by any efficient intervening cause, produced her whiplash injury, and without which her whiplash injury would not have occurred. [36]
	GR No. 161803 2008-02-04	DY TEBAN TRADING v. JOSE CHING REYES, R.T., J.
Proximate cause is defined as that cause, which, in natural and continuous sequence, unbroken by any efficient intervening cause, produces the injury, and without which the result would not have occurred. More comprehensively, proximate cause is that cause acting first and producing the injury, either immediately or by setting other events in motion, all constituting a natural and continuous chain of events, each having a close causal connection with its immediate predecessor, the final event in the chain immediately effecting the injury as natural and probable result of the cause which first acted, under such circumstances that the person responsible for the first event should, as an ordinarily prudent and intelligent person, have reasonable ground to expect at the moment of his act or default that an injury to some person might probably result therefrom.[27]
	GR NO. 155791 2005-03-16	MELBA QUINTO v. DANTE ANDRES CALLEJO, SR., J.
Moreover, a person committing a felony is criminally liable for all the natural and logical consequences resulting therefrom although the wrongful act done be different from that which he intended.[24] "Natural" refers to an occurrence in the ordinary course of human life or events, while "logical" means that there is a rational connection between the act of the accused and the resulting injury or damage. The felony committed must be the proximate cause of the resulting injury. Proximate cause is that cause which in natural and continuous sequence, unbroken by an efficient intervening cause, produces the injury, and without which the result would not have occurred. The proximate legal cause is that acting first and producing the injury, either immediately, or by setting other events in motion, all constituting a natural and continuous chain of events, each having a close causal connection with its immediate predecessor.[25]
	GR No. 121413 2001-01-29	PHILIPPINE COMMERCIAL INTERNATIONAL BANK v. CA QUISUMBING, J.
Accordingly, we need to determine whether or not the action of Godofredo Rivera, Ford's General Ledger Accountant, and/or Alexis Marindo, his assistant, was the proximate cause of the loss or damage. As defined, proximate cause is that which, in the natural and continuous sequence, unbroken by any efficient, intervening cause produces the injury, and without which the result would not have occurred.[20]
