Answer the following items.

PROBLEM 1:
A and B got married in 2015 and had an offspring a year after. On the fifth year of their
marriage, however, A and B had lots of misunderstandings that resulted to their separation. A
then left the conjugal home leaving their kid with his wife. Before B could file a petition for
support, A voluntarily offered his wife a monthly support of P50,000.00 that B willingly agreed to.
Upon the prodding of B’s friends, B demanded a higher amount of support which amounts to
P200,000.00, from A considering that A has been receiving P400,000.00 a month. How much
should A give as monthly support to B? Why?
Answer 1:
A should give P200,000.00 to B because he was the one who left their “conjugal home” and
leaving their kid to B. Therefore, A has a responsibility to give more money for financial support
to his child because he is not the one who is going to take care of their kid it is his wife. And it is
hard for B to raise their child only by herself. Food, clothes, shelter, and other utilities are not
enough for P50,000.00 and of course their child needs to attend school it may include the kid’s
tuition fee on her expenses. And A receives P400,000.00 a month, B only needs half of it. If A
love his child and a good father, he must agree to B to give what her need.

PROBLEM 2:
A got into a vehicular accident with B due to the fault of the latter. The case could very well fall
under the crime of Reckless Imprudence Resulting to Physical Injuries in addition to suit for
collection of money, but A opted not to file a criminal case against B since such filing of criminal
case against a churchmate would mean his dismissal from their church. Instead, A chose to file
a case for collection of sums of money only based on their agreement that B will pay A for all
the expenses incurred by reason of the accident except for the repair of the car since B will
directly pay the same to the A’s insurance company. However, B refused to pay A for his travel
expenses and meal allowances when he travels to the repair shop during his routine check-ups
on the progress of the repair even after A insisted on B’s agreement to pay all the damages.
Whose contention is correct? Is it B’s refusal to pay A’s expenses during routine check-ups or is
it A’s insistence on B’s liability to pay for the expenses incurred by A? Explain your answer.
Answer 2:
The correct contention is A because he is the one who got into a vehicular accident because of
B. And A was still concerned about B because they are churchmate that is why he did not a file
a criminal case. Therefore, B has an obligation to A he must give what A wants, he should be
thankful for A small mercies. Travel expenses and meal allowances are just small amount if B
felt guilty or sorry by the accident, he must agree to A.
