Jurisdiction of HSAC over Condominium Contract Disputes

In the recent decision of the Supreme Court, it affirmed that the Human Settlements Adjudication Commission (HSAC) has exclusive jurisdiction over contractual and legal disputes between buyers and developers of real estate projects. The Court also clarified that this jurisdiction evolved through a series of legal reforms, including the transfer of regulatory functions from the National Housing Authority to the Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board, and ultimately to the HSAC under Republic Act No. 11201.

The Supreme Court Decides: A petty quarrel involving shoving or slight pushing cannot be considered a just cause for the termination of employment.

Factual findings of the NLRC are accorded great respect, but the Court of Appeals is not precluded from reviewing evidence alleged to be arbitrarily considered or otherwise disregarded by the former.
