20 Phil. 248

[ G. R. No. 5864, September 16, 1911 ]

RAMON DOMINISAG, PLAINTIFF AND APPELLEE, VS. MANUEL MANCILLA, DEFENDANT AND APPELLANT.

D E C I S I O N

MORELAND, J.:

We affirm this judgment upon  the  opinion of the court below, laying special emphasis upon the fact that the defendant at the time he purchased the land in question knew the rights and interests of the plaintiff in and  to the said land and had before him the instrument showing such  interest in the plaintiff.   Having this knowledge, he can not be said to be an innocent purchaser and he accordingly took subject to the rights of the plaintiff therein.

Torres, Mapa,  Johnson, and Carson, JJ.,concur.
