Same; Reservation to institute separate civil action for damages.—Where the record tends
to show that the reservation to institute a separate civil action for damages was made after
defendant-appellee had already pleaded guilty and after the private prosecutor had entered
his appearance jointly with the prosecuting attorney in the course of the criminal
proceedings, such reservation must be deemed legally ineffective. [Tactaquin vs. Palileo, 21
SCRA 346(1967)]
