13. Registered Parcel of Land

On 01 January 1980, Redentor and Remedios entered into an agreement by virtue of which the former was to register a parcel of land in the name of Remedios under the explicit covenant to reconvey the land to Remigio, son of Redentor, upon the son's graduation from college. In 1991, the land was registered in the name of Remedios.

Redentor died a year later or in 1982. In March 1983. Remigio graduated from college. In February 1992, Remigio accidentally found a copy of the document so constituting Remedios as the trustee of the land. In May 1994, Remtgio filed a case against Remedios for the reconveyance of the land to him. Remedios, in her answer, averred that the action already prescribed.

How should the mailer be decided?
