Mr. Dalisay De Guzman


Caloocan, Santiago City

EARNEST EFFORT FOR COMPROMISE

This letter is sent upon the authority of my clients, Angelo,


Beth, and Cardo, all surnamed De Guzman, to convey to you the
following:

On December 15, 2012, upon inquiry in the Registry of


Deeds at Batal, Santiago city, it has been made known to them
that a piece of land, registered under TCT No. 67890 on December
15, 2010, located at Kapirpirwan, Cordon, Isabela, with an area of
40,000 square meters, previously registered under TCT No. 12345,
was transferred to your name by virtue of a Deed of Donation,
dated November 5, 2009, allegedly signed by your parents,
Esmeraldo De Guzman and Fatima Garcia (maiden name), when
alleged donors Esmeraldo and Fatima died on 1999 and 2007,
respectively.

My clients are seeking earnest efforts to settle this family


matters outside of litigation as provided under Art 151 (1) of the
Family Code, viz, “No suit between members of the same family
shall prosper unless it should appear from the verified complaint or
petition that earnest efforts toward a compromise have been made,
but that the same have failed. If it is shown that no such efforts
were in fact made, the same case must be dismissed.”

To avoid needless expense and embarrassment brought about by


court litigation, I am writing to invite you here at my office to settle
the foregoing dispute and compromise with your siblings, extra-
judicially.

Your attention and action regarding this matter is of utmost


importance to the prosperity of both parties.

Respectfully,

Atty. Alecsander Paolo T. Cabanos
