ESPERANZA P. DE HARDEN, PLAINTIFF AND APPELLEE VS. FRED N. HARDEN, ET AL., DEFENDANTS AND APPELLANTS.

D E C I S I O N

Motion of Attorney Claro M. Recto to establish a charging lien for professional fees on the properties involved in the case.

Case is remanded to the court of origin to determine the amount of fees claimed by Attorney Claro M. Recto in his motion. It is understood that, after said fees had been finally determined and paid, this case will be completely dismissed as prayed for by the defendants-appellants, without prejudice to considering the claim of the receiver for compensation as stated in his urgent motion.

Pending determination of the amount of fees claimed by Attorney Recto, the writ of preliminary injunction, the orders of contempt and commitment, and all interlocutory orders which were issued in the course of this case are lifted and vacated, and with regard to the receivership, the same is dissolved, only with respect to the 368,553 shares of the Balatoc Mining Company. As to the rest of properties, the receivership shall be maintained.
