SECOND DIVISION

[ G.R. NO. 168122, October 04, 2007 ]

ROMONAFE CORPORATION, PETITIONER, VS. NATIONAL POWER CORPORATION, RESPONDENT.

RESOLUTION

CARPIO MORALES, J.:

Petitioner’s Motion for Reconsideration of Resolution dated April 16, 2007 with Motion for Leave to File Instant Motion,[1] which this Court treats as a 2nd Motion for Reconsideration, is Denied.  It is a prohibited pleading.

On the clarification[2] being sought by petitioner regarding the actual area of its property subject of Civil Case No. 1140-95 to which the 1995 assessment applies, this Court clarifies that, indeed, the area is 48,103.12 square meters.  The pertinent portion[3] of the Decision of January 30, 2007 is thus amended to read:
It bears clarification, however, that the 1995 assessment applies only to the 48,103.12 square meters of Romonafe’s property subject of Civil Case No. 1140-95.
SO ORDERED.

Quisumbing, (Chairperson), Carpio, Tinga, and Velasco, Jr., JJ., concur.
