G.R. No. 113827 - PHILIPPINE AIRLINES INC., VS. NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS COMMISSION, ARBITER RAMON VALENTIN C. REYES, AND STELLAR EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION.

Ruling

Accordingly, the NLRC was simply applying the law when it dismissed PAL's petition for injunction and denied the motion for reconsideration thereof. It committed no abuse of discretion, let alone grave abuse thereof, which may be corrected by certiorari. This Court cannot touch upon the very merits of the cases involved, as petitioner would have us do, because not only are they still pending appeal before the NLRC, but the questioned resolutions themselves are devoid of any discussion, substantial or otherwise, of the issues raised in the petition. WHEREFORE, the instant petition for certiorari with prayer for the issuance of a writ of preliminary injunction or a temporary restraining order is hereby DISMISSED, with costs against the petitioner Philippine Airlines, Inc. SO ORDERED.
