COMPLAINT
PLAINTIFF, through the undersigned counsel from the Public Attorney’s
Office and to this Honorable Court, most respectfully avers THAT –
10. In 2011, Lydia M. Palo applied for title over the property. It
appeared however that the entire Lot No. 846, Cad-1004-D was
placed to ARTURO NICANOR RAMIREZ as survey claimant.
However way she did it, Lydia M. Palo managed to secure from
ARTURO NICANOR RAMIREZ an Affidavit of Waiver of
Rights dated and notarized July 19, 2011. In this document,
ARTURO NICANOR RAMIREZ gave FIVE THOUSAND (5,000)
square meters to Lydia M. Palo while the remainder of Lot No.
846, Cad-1004-D was given to GEORGE BARON. This
notwithstanding that as of this date, Tax Declaration No. 155-A
in the name of FRANCISCO PALO and ALBERTO LEOP already
existed covering FIVE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED NINETY
THREE (5,193) square meters of the same lot;
12. Lydia M. Palo was not in her own name and capacity entitled to
secure title over the property. Instead she banked on the purported
sale executed by Francisco Palo and Alberto Leop in 2009 which
document she used in her Free Patent Application. In truth,
neither Francisco Palo nor Alberto Leop executed any such
document in Lydia M. Palo’s favor. Collectively attached herewith
as ANNEX “E” is a copy of the Free Patent Application with
attachments filed by Lydia M. Palo on September 5, 2011;
14. The issue was brought to the Barangay for conciliation on April
26, 2018 but no settlement was reached. A copy of the Barangay
Certification is hereto attached as ANNEX “F”.
PRAYER
FOREGOING PREMISES GIVEN, it is most earnestly pleaded of
the Honorable Court, after due notice and hearing THAT –
1. KATIBAYAN NG ORIHINAL NA TITULO BILANG P-21818 be
ANNULLED and ordered CANCELLED and a new one ordered
issued to herein plaintiff;
