At the same time, the city filed a petition for annulment of judgment with the CA. Shortly after the RTC ruled in favor of Taguig in July 2011, Makati filed a motion for reconsideration at the Pasig court. The case between Taguig and Makati over BGC started in 1993, when Taguig filed a case against Makati before the Pasig RTC contending 'that the areas comprising the Enlisted Men's Barangays, or EMBOs, as well as the area referred to as Inner Fort in Fort Bonifacio, were within its territory and jurisdiction.' Sorongon said he based his ruling on a June 2016 decision of the Supreme Court, which found Makati guilty of 'willful and deliberate forum shopping' or pursuing remedies in multiple courts. Special Former Sixth Division Associate Justice Edwin Sorongon granted Taguig's motion to dismiss Makati's appeal of a July 2011 decision by the Pasig City Regional Trial Court (RTC), which ruled that Bonifacio Global City (BGC) was within the territory of Taguig. Metro Manila (CNN Philippines) - The Court of Appeals (CA) ruled Wednesday in favor of Taguig City in the latest development in a two-decade dispute with Makati City over ownership of a bustling central business district.
