Facts: Accused Tiu Won Chua a.k.a. Timothy Tiu and Qui Yaling y Chua a.k.a. Sun Tee Sy y Chua were charged and convicted by the lower court or violation o Section !"# Article $$$ o the dangerous drug act o !%&'# or their illegal (ossession o a regulated drug# shabu. They a((ealed the decision o the lower court )uestioning the legality o the search warrant and the search and arrest conducted (ursuant thereto# and the correctness o the *udgment o conviction im(osed by the +TC. Accused,a((ellants contend that the deect in the issuance o the search warrant# or it was issued in the name o timothy tui -not Tiu won chua. and did not include a((ellant )ui yaling# would make the search conducted and conse)uently# the arrest# illegal. And that the evidence (resented cannot be served as basis or their conviction being ruits o an illegal search. Issues: !. Whether or not there was a valid search warrant. '. Whether or not the court correctly im(osed *udgment o conviction to the accused. Ruling: !. There are only our re)uisites or a valid warrant# i.e#/ -!. it must be issued u(on 0(robable cause01 -'. (robable cause must be determined (ersonally by the *udge1 -3. such *udge must e2amine under oath or airmation the com(lainant and the witnesses he may (roduce1 and -3. the warrant must (articularly describe the (lace to be searched and the (ersons or things to be sei4ed. A mistake in the name o the (erson to be searched does not invalidate the warrant# es(ecially since in this case# the authorities had (ersonal knowledge o the drug,related activities o the accused by virtue o the surveillance and test,buy o(erations o the said authorities. $n act# a 05ohn 6oe0 warrant satisies the re)uirements so long as it contains a descri(tio (ersonae such as will enable the oicer to identiy the accused. 7oreover# a mistake in the identiication o the owner o the (lace does not invalidate the warrant (rovided the (lace to be searched is (ro(erly described. 8owever# the court airms the illegality o the search conducted on the car or it was not (art o the descri(tion o the (lace to be searched mentioned in the warrant.

As to the (enalties im(osed# the court did not sustain the trial court9s decision attributing to both a((ellants the illegal (ossession o the same amount o shabu. Since no cons(iracy was (roven# the amount o the shabu rom each accused was made the basis o the (enalty im(osed.
