Pending the execution of the judgment on the Ang sa acceptance, naa: You have
compromise agreement, Leoncio died, and he [1] tacit acceptance, and
left 2 heirs: his NATURAL SON, and the
ADOPTED SON, VICTOR. [2] presumed acceptance.
VICTOR was substituted in place of LEONCIO in Now, under the law, Article 1051, there are only
that case, and it was VICTOR who moved for the 2 ways:
execution of the said compromise agreement.
[1] in a public or authentic document, or
[2]by a petition presented to the court.
So, the SC said2 that: “VICTOR’s act of moving
for execution of the compromise agreement
cannot be considered an act of repudiation of
his legitime. Our law on Succession does not
countenance tacit repudiation of inheritance. It
requires an express act on the part of the heir.”
Just remember: There are only 2 ways to
repudiate an inherence, and there is no such
thing as implied or tacit repudiation.
