BY THE VERY WORDS OF RULE 15, SECTION 4 OF THE RULES OF COURT,
THE MOVING PARTY IS REQUIRED TO SERVE MOTIONS IN SUCH A MANNER AS TO ENSURE THE
RECEIPT THEREOF BY THE OTHER PARTY AT LEAST THREE DAYS BEFORE THE DATE OF
HEARING. The purpose of the rule is to prevent a
surprise and to afford the adverse party a chance to be heard before the motion
is resolved by the trial court. Plainly, the rule does not require that the
court receive the notice three days prior to the hearing date. (Republic vs.
Diaz-Enriquez [2013]).
