     Lex Traditia




    Exemplary Damages in Criminal Cases.  The presence of the aggravating circumstance of dwelling,
    both of which indicate the criminal perversity of the appellant, the amount of P25,000.00 by way of
    exemplary damages is justified. It is now well-settled that in criminal cases, the presence of an
    aggravating circumstance, whether ordinary or qualifying, entitles the victim to an award of exemplary
    damages insofar as the civil aspect of the crime is concerned. (PEOPLE vs. DELA TORRE, G.R. No.
    98431, January 15, 2002)
