Surigao City

Krista Jessyl B. Gabucan,

Plaintiff-Appellant,
Criminal Case No. 02-974423
- versus -

Richard Belmonte,
Defendant-Appellee,
x--------------------------------x

MOTION FOR BILL OF PARTICULARS

Defendant, through the undersigned counsel and unto this Honorable

Court, respectfully avers:

1. That the plaintiff's complaint in paragraph 5 alleges:

"From August 3 to December 2013, defendant

never paid anything to herein plaintiff. The check
that he issued as partial payment for the first
month also bounced. x x x"; (underscoring
supplied)

2. The said allegation is not averred with sufficient definiteness and

particularity, specifically it does not mention the amount of the check

therein mentioned, its check number, date, and the drawee bank;

3. That a more definite statement on the matters as above-indicated is

necessary in order to enable the defendant to prepare its responsive

pleading because from the very onset of this controversy, the main
 dispute was on what was actually and exactly agreed upon by the parties

as the amount of monthly rentals on the lease of plaintiff's property;

4. However, due to the fact that defendant corporation had to transfer its

liaison offices depending on its project sites, the check stub where the

above-mentioned check came from was probably misplaced and could no

longer be found;

5. That a bill of particulars or a more definite statement as to particulars of

the said check which was allegedly issued by the defendants as partial

payment for the first month would definitely simplify the issues in this

case, and hopefully simplify the negotiations between the parties for an

amicable settlement.

PRAYER

WHEREFORE, defendant most respectfully prays that an order be issued

by this Honorable Court requiring the plaintiff to make more definite statement

as to the particulars of the check mentioned in paragraph 5 of his complaint,

particularly stating its amount, check number, date, and the name of the

drawee bank.
