Description

Defendants-Appellants Aquilino and Adela Tingco (Tingcos) and Corazon and Lydia Ramiro (Ramiros) (collectively Appellants
or lessees) filed separate appeals from the district court's summary possession judgments in favor of Plaintiff-Appellee Queen
Emma Foundation (QEF).1 On appeal, Appellants argue that the district court did not have jurisdiction to hear the dispute,
or alternatively, that there was insubstantial evidence to support the court's findings of fact and Conclusions of law. We
vacate the judgments because the district court lacked jurisdiction to order summary possession and remand for proceedings
consistent with this opinion.
