VENUE IN JUDICIAL SETTLEMENT OF ESTATE:

     For purposes of fixing venue under the Rules of Court, the "residence" of a person is his personal, actual or physical habitation, or actual residence or place of abode, which may not necessarily be his legal residence or domicile provided he resides therein with continuity and consistency. Hence, it is possible that a person may have his residence in one place and domicile in another. (Edgar San Luis vs. Felicidad San Luis, G.R. No. 133743, February 6, 2007; Rodolfo San Luis vs. Felicidad Sagalongos, G.R. No. 134029, February 6, 2007, YNARES-SANTIAGO, J.).
