The CA in turn had affirmed a decision by the National Labor Relations Commission , which found that April Grace C. Morquin was illegally dismissed from the publishing firm since her position should not have been considered redundant.

The case was remanded to the labor arbiter for appropriate computation of amounts due to the dismissed employee. Vibal argued that the firm had suffered a severe decline in magazine sales with the termination of its textbook project with the Department of Education. It decided to reduce its staff writers from 19 to eight.
