[A] constructive trust imposed by Article 1456 of the Civil Code, which impresses upon a person obtaining

property through mistake or fraud the status of an implied trustee for the benefit of the person from whom the
property comes. Xxx [C]onstructive trusts are created by the construction of equity in order to satisfy the demands
of justice and prevent unjust enrichment. They arise contrary to intention against one who, by fraud, duress or
abuse of confidence, obtains or holds the legal right to property which he ought not, in equity and good
conscience, to hold. See Estate of Margarita Cabacungan v. Laigo, et al., G.R. No. 175073, August 15, 2011; citing
Aznar Brothers Realty Co. v. Aying [497 Phil. 788, 799 (2005)]
