8/17/2019 PHILIPPINE REPORTS ANNOTATED VOLUME 091
It is true that Section 143 and 144 of the law are not
applicable, because these are provisions having to do with
the presentation of a bill of exchange for acceptance, and
are not applicable to a check, as to which presentment for
acceptance is not required.
It is also true that Section 84 is applicable, but its
application is subject to the condition imposed by Section
186, to the effect that the check must be presented for
payment within a reasonable time after its issue.
