FACTS:
Lomises acquired from Baguio City Government the right to
occupy two stalls in the Hangar Market in Baguio City.
Lomises entered into an agreement with respondent johnny
Suerte for the transfer of all improvements and rights over
the two market stalls. Suerte gave down payment and there
is a receipt.
Suerte gave another payment but before the completion of
payment, Lomises backed out of the agreement and
returned what was paid and there was a receipt for this.
Johnny did not want the return of his money and wanted the
continuation and enforcement of his agreement. He filed for
specific performance with damages.
RTC: nullified the agreement between johnny and Lomises
for failure to secure the consent of the baguio city
government.
o Lomises are merely lessees and the government
was the lessor owner of stalls.
Lomises appealed to CA: the real agreement between the
parties was merely one of loan and not for sale. The load
had been extinguished upon the return of amount to
Johnnys mother Domes.
CA: there are two agreements entered into between Johnny
and Lomises: one for assignment of leasehold rights and the
other was for the sale of the improvements on the market
stalls. The assignement of leasehold rights was void for lack
of consent of the lessor, baguio government. The sale of
improvements was valid because there were Lomises private
properties.
Petitioner:agreement was a loan.
