IN CASE AT BAR,
PNB: Claims that the loan obligation of SPS on the date of the auction sale were more
than the amount in Notice of Sale – P8,511,000
COURT: Evidence on record (SPS’ Statement of Account prepared by PNB attached
to its Answer with counterclaim) – states that the principal obligation with
interest/penalty and attorney’s fees as of OCT 30 already amounted to P6,409,814.92
SPS merely denied amounts in Statement of Account, did not interpose any
defense to refuse computation
Statement of Account is the only piece of evidence available for determination of
the outstanding obligations as of the date of the auction sale
SPS wrote letters to PNB almost 2 years after the auction sale offering to redeem
the property (P9.5M) – cannot be used to support PNB’s claim that the obligation
was more than P8.5M (no showing of how the P9.5M was computed)
Statement of Account being sole existing documentary evidence – shows
excess in bid price (P8,511,000 – P6,409,814.92) which PNB must return with
interest computed in accordance with guidelines in EASTERN SHIPPING
