Key legal question
Whether the respondent had to prove ownership of the co-owned quarter share despite the appellant's claim of fiduciary transfer
Extracted holding
The appellant failed to rebut the land-register presumption of ownership; the respondent remained co-owner.
Extracted reasoning
Because the respondent was registered as co-owner, ownership was presumed under the Civil Code. The appellant's evidence of a fiduciary arrangement was vague, partly hearsay, and not persuasive; the appellate court's assessment was not arbitrary.
