Second Motion for Reconsideration: General Rule, Exception

Sec. 5(b), Rule 37, states: "No party shall be allowed a second motion for reconsideration of a judgment or final order." Thus, a second motion for reconsideration is forbidden except for extraordinarily persuasive reasons, and only upon express leave first obtained. Systra Philippines, Inc. v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue, G.R. No. 176290, September 21, 2007
