6. A spat on the face of B in the presence of C, the girlfriend of B. What crime did A
commit?
- A was guilty by Article 359 Slander by Deed he didn't just engage a fight with B but
degraded or dishonor B infront of his girlfriend. Why not talk about it calmly and quietly
than engage a fight, involved someone else, and make a scene like that? A doesn't
know how to respect by doing that and A might go to jail because he/she didn't think of
what his/her doing.

7. A is spreading gossips that B (a hunk) is wearing a woman’s clothes at night for the
purpose of alienating the latter’s friendships with C. What crime has A committed, if
any?
- Article 364 Intriguing against Honor was the crime A executed because of purposely
spreading of gossips that will make C distance to B. By doing it C's reputation will be
bad to everyone who knows C most especially to B because he/she are friends to C. It
will make a huge impact and disadvantage to C if A keeps that going.
