REYES V. MASQUEDA, 187 SCRA 661

REYES V. MASQUEDA

187 SCRA 661

FACTS:

Dr. Pascual died without issue and left his properties to his sister and latter’s children as heirs. In the inventory of his estate, Ursula sought to exclude those properties that were donated to her by her brother during his lifetime. On one of the properties donated to her, she sold the same to Reyes. It was found out however that after the donation to her was made, it was donated subsequent to a minor.

HELD:

The donation in favor of Ursula is of inter vivos and thus, it is valid and should be upheld. Given such, as there was no reason to revoke the donation in her favor, the later donation to a minor is null and void.
