Guillermo D. Olan v. Hon. Court of Appeals

Summary

This civil case involves a commission dispute where Guillermo Olan sued Digna Rosales Enterprises for breach of contract, claiming entitlement to 1.75% commission on uniform supply contracts he allegedly facilitated with PLDT. Both the trial court and Court of Appeals found that Olan failed to perform his contractual obligations to facilitate the contracts, with evidence showing the contracts were secured through respondent's own efforts without Olan's intervention. The Supreme Court affirmed these factual findings but modified the judgment by deleting the attorney's fees award, emphasizing that such awards require explicit factual and legal justification under Article 2208 of the Civil Code and cannot merely appear in the dispositive portion without proper explanation in the decision text.
