VII. Cresencio sued Dioscoro for collection of a sum of money. During the trial, but after the presentation of plaintiff's evidence, Dioscoro died. Atty. Cruz, Dioscoro's counsel, then filed a motion to dismiss the action on the ground of his client's death. The court denied the motion to dismiss and, instead, directed counsel to furnish the court with the names and addresses of Dioscoro's heirs and ordered that the designated administrator of Dioscoro's estate be substituted as representative party. After trial, the court rendered judgment in favor of Cresencio. When the decision had become final and executory, Cresencio moved for the issuance of a writ of execution against Dioscoro's estate to enforce his judgment claim. The court issued the writ of execution. Was the court's issuance of the writ of execution proper? Explain. (2%)
