THE Court of Appeals (CA) has ordered a provincial distributor of lottery tickets in Isabela to pay Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) more than P1 million representing unpaid tickets in the 1990s.

In a February 11, 2015 decision penned by Associate Justice Fernanda Lampas Peralta and concurred in by Associate Justices Stephen Cruz and Ramon Paul Hernando, the CA’s 7th Division reversed and set aside the trial court’s decision dated April 25, 2012 as it ordered Clarita Ciscar “to pay [PCSO] the sum of P1,178,214.81 plus interest at the rate of twelve percent (12 percent) per annum from date of default until full payment.”
