What to do if appeal is denied


When a judgment or final order is rendered by any court in a case, and a party thereto, by fraud, accident, mistake, or excusable negligence, has been prevented from taking an appeal, he may file a petition in such court and in the same case praying that the appeal be given due course.

·        file a Petition for Relief from Denial of Appeal

·        Grounds:
o   Fraud, accident, mistake or excusable negligence.

·        Attach: Affidavit of Merits executed by the petitioner showing:
o   the fraud, accident, mistake and excusable negligence  and
o   the facts constituting his good and substantial defense or cause of action

·        Periods (when to file):
o   within 60 days from learning of the denial of the appeal
o   Not more than 6 months after the judgment being appealed from has been recorded in the book of entries for judgments
o   These two periods are not extendible and never interrupted (Quijano vs. Tameta)
o   Both periods must be complied with (Phil. Rabbit Bus Lines vs. Arciaga)

·        Where to file:
o   Court of origin (the court which issued the assailed judgment)
