First Argument /9
The Court a quo correctly ruled in the Decision that
defendant-appellant Jorman failed to prove that the alleged
destruction, if any, of the Leased Premises as caused !y
plaintiff-appellee Citifinancial considering that the
improvements removed therefrom ere undisputedly oned
!y plaintiff-appellee Citifinancial and, in fact, ere never
claimed !y defendant-appellant Jorman" Li#eise, the Court
a quo correctly affirmed the Decision through the $rder on
the grounds that the %otion for &econsideration of
defendant-appellant Jorman as merely a pro forma motion
for failing to raise any ne ground or persuasive reason to
arrant the reversal of the Decision and for violating the
three '()-day notice rule" Thus, the %otion for&econsideration of defendant-appellant Jorman did not toll
the period to appeal the Decision and consequently, her
appeal to the *onora!le Court of Appeals as filed out of
time"
+econd Argument 00
The Court a quo correctly held that defendant-appellant
Jorman did not comply ith the provisions of the Lease
Contract on deductions against the +ecurity Deposit, there!y
enoining her from claiming any such deductions assuming
solely for the sa#e of argument that she has proven that
plaintiff-appellee Citifinancial caused damage to the Leased
Premises"
Third Argument 09

3/60
The Court a quo correctly found that the !elated claim of
defendant-appellant Jorman contained in her April .//0
letter to plaintiff-appellee Citifinancial as a mere ruse to
avoid the inevita!le refund of the +ecurity Deposit"
Fourth Argument ?
The Court a quo correctly held that defendant-appellant
Jorman is lia!le for damages in favor of plaintiff-appellee
Citifinancial in vie of her unustified refusal to return the
+ecurity Deposit oned !y plaintiff-appellee Citifinancial"
