Caltex (Philippines) vs. CA (212 SCRA 448, 10 August 1992)

Facts:
Security bank issued Certificates of Time Deposit to Angel Dela Cruz which she later used to purchase fuel products from Caltex. However, later after the said transaction, Angel Dela Cruz went to the issuing bank and claimed that the CTDs were lost.

Upon compliance with some formal requirements, Angel was issued replacements. Thereafter, he secured a loan from the bank where he assigned the certificates as security. Here comes the petitioner, averred that the certificates were not actually lost but were given as security for payment for fuel purchases.
The bank demanded some proof of the agreement but the petitioner failed to comply. The loan matured and the time deposits were terminated and then applied to the payment of the loan.
Calex demands the payment of the certificates but to no avail.

Issue:
