damages plus costs of the suit be awarded in his
favor.
For its part, Metrobank countered that upon the receipt
of the said check through the PCHC on 14 November 1994,
it examined the genuineness and the authenticity of the
drawer’s signature appearing thereon and the technical
entries on the check including the amount in figures and in
words to determine if there were alterations, erasures,
superimpositions or intercalations thereon, but none was
noted. After verifying the authenticity and propriety of the
aforesaid entries, including the indorsement of the
collecting bank located at the dorsal side of the check which
stated that, “all prior indorsements and lack 10 of
indorsement guaranteed,” Metrobank cleared the check.
