XIII.

Parties can novate through a compromise agreement a final and executory decision of the Labor Arbiter. This is not prohibited by law. The parties in such a case merely exercise their right to contract. So long as the requisites of a valid compromise agreement are observed, such compromise agreement will be upheld.
