Case Title:
Filcon Ready Mixed Inc. and Gilbert S. Vergara v. UCPB General Insurance Company Inc., G.R. No. 229877, July 15, 2020

Can insurers bypass legal deadlines when filing claims? The Supreme Court case Filcon Ready Mixed Inc. and Gilbert S. Vergara v. UCPB General Insurance Company Inc. (G.R. No. 229877, July 15, 2020) explores the limits of subrogation in Philippine insurance law. It all began with a cement mixer accident causing P195,409.50 in damages, leading UCPB to sue the negligent parties. Lower courts dismissed the case, citing the four-year prescription rule for quasi-delict claims.

However, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of UCPB, applying the Vector doctrine, which allowed insurers a 10-year prescription period for obligations created by law. Later jurisprudence clarified that insurers inherit the same prescriptive limits as the insured. This case reshaped insurance and civil law, raising critical questions about fairness in claims filing.
