15. A owned three condominium units located near Camp Aguinaldo along EDSA. In 2020, A leased the three condominium units to the government for the use of its military officials, X, Y, and Z, as their offices for a period of three years. In 2024, A sued X, Y, and Z to recover possession of the condominium units because their respective leases had expired and they refused to vacate the premises despite demands. A also prayed for payment of rent in arrears. X, Y, and Z moved to dismiss the case for lack of jurisdiction on the ground of state immunity from suit. A countered that the lease contracts were commercial contracts, not falling within the doctrine of state immunity from suit. Is A correct? Reason(s).
