PERALTA, JR., E. B., J.:
In lieu of a detailed discussion on possible defects concerning the procedural angle of the Decision, petitioners’ Motion for Reconsideration focused on substantive provisions of the Civil Code.[2] Necessarily, such sub rosa treatment from petitioners can hardly produce the desired result.
Accordingly, for lack of persuasive force, We hereby DENY petitioners’ Motion for Reconsideration.
SO ORDERED.
