Loyola Security v. National… · G.R. 113287

Petitioner: Loyola Security
Respondent: National Labor Relations Commission
Citation: G.R. No. 113287
Court: Supreme Court
Division: First Division
Ponente: Quiason, J.
Decided: May 9, 1995

Summary

Security guards Victor Prado, Sr. and Matilde Tuscano successfully obtained P91,317.93 labor award against Loyola Security and Detective Agency for illegal dismissal and wage violations. After initial satisfaction of judgment, they sought alias writ of execution claiming incomplete payment. The Supreme Court upheld NLRC's finding that the compromise agreement was invalid because it was executed without counsel assistance or Labor Arbiter approval as required by NLRC rules, involved significant disparity from the original award, and Prado lacked proper authorization under Civil Code Article 1878 to compromise on behalf of co-respondent Tuscano. The Court ordered payment of the remaining balance, emphasizing that settlements in labor cases must comply with procedural safeguards and legal requirements for waiver of rights.
