Young vs. Sy
with these Rules or any order of the court, the complaint may be
dismissed upon motion of the defendant or upon the courts own
motion, without prejudice to the right of the defendant to prosecute
his counterclaim in the same or in a separate action. This
dismissal shall have the effect of an adjudication upon the
merits, unless otherwise declared by the court. (emphasis
supplied) It is firmly established, and with very few exceptions, that
the remedy against such final order is appeal and not certiorari.

Art. 1620. A co-owner of a thing may exercise the right of redemption in case
the shares of all the other co-owners or of any of them, are sold to a third
person. If the price of the alienation is grossly excessive, the redemptioner shall
pay only a reasonable one.
164
_______________
Should two or more co-owners desire to exercise the right of redemption, they
may only do so in proportion to the share they may respectively have in the
thing owned in common. (1522a)
Art. 1623. The right of legal pre-emption or redemption shall not be exercised
except within thirty days from the notice in writing by the prospective vendor,
or by the vendor, as the case may be. The deed of sale shall not be recorded in
the Registry of Property, unless accompanied by an affidavit of the vendor that
he has given written notice thereof to all possible redemptioners.
