her account with the Far East Bank & Trust Company
on September 11, 1992, it was dishonored by the drawee
bank for the reason that on September 1, 1992, Bayani
closed his account with the PSBank. The reason for the
dishonor of the check was stamped at its dorsal
portion. As ofAugust 27, 1992, the balance of Bayanis
account with the bank was P2,414.96.
Evangelista then informed Rubia of the dishonor of
the check and demanded the return of her P55,000.00.
Rubia replied that she was only requested by Bayani to
have the check rediscounted and advised Evangelista to
see him. When Evangelista talked to Bayani, she was
told that Rubia borrowed the check from him.
Thereafter, Evangelista, Rubia, Bayani and his wife,
Aniceta, had a conference in the office of Atty. Emmanuel
Velasco, Evangelistas lawyer. Later, in the Office of the
Barangay Captain Nestor Baera, Evangelista showed
Bayani a photocopy of the dishonored check and
demanded payment thereof. Bayani and Aniceta, on one
hand, and Rubia, on the other, pointed to each other and
denied liability thereon. Aniceta told Rubia that she
should be the one to pay since the P55,000.00 was with
her, but the latter insisted that the said amount was in
payment of the pieces of jewelry Aniceta purchased from
her. Upon

Velascos
prodding,

suggested Bayani and Rubio to pay P25,000.00 each.
Still, Bayani and Rubia pointed to the other as the one
solely liable for the amount of the check. Rubia reminded
Aniceta that she was given the check as payment of the
pieces of jewelry Aniceta bought from her.

damages and preliminary attachment. It alleged that
sometime in 1983, A.T. Diaz Realty, through Anita
Diaz, bought from Ricardo Lorenzo his undivided share
in a parcel of land which he owned in common with
Servando
Solomon. In
connection
with
this
transaction, Diaz issued a check for P60,000.00 in the
name of Ricardo Lorenzos agent, private respondent
Crispulo Arboleda. The check, dated November 7,

Whether petitioner is liable to Anita Diaz for
cashing the check after it had been ordered not
to pay is a matter between them. By
restoring the amount it had paid to the account
of A.T. Diaz Realty, petitioner merely stepped
into the shoes of the drawer. Consequently, its
present action is subject to the defenses which
private respondent Arboleda might raise had
this action been instituted by Anita Diaz.

On May 15, 1984, or more than six (6) months
after funding the check, Allied informed Metrobank
that the signature on the check was forged. [31] Thus,
Metrobank withheld the amount represented by the
check from FCC. Later on, Metrobank agreed to release
the amount to FCC after the latter executed an
Undertaking, promising to indemnify Metrobank in case it
was made to reimburse the amount.
