GENERAL PRINCIPLES: IN REMEDIAL LAW Q: What is remedial law? ‘A: Itis a branch of aw that prescribes the methods of enforcing rights and obligations created by substantive law. (Bustos vs. Judge Lucero, G.R. No. L-2068, 1948) Compare substantive and remedial law. Pecan) Sieur Creates, defines and | Prescribes the regulates rights and methods of enforcing duties concerning life, | rights and obligations liberty or property | created by substantive which when violated | law. It provides a ives rise to a cause of | procedural system for action. obtaining redress. for the invasion of rights and violations of duties. It also prescribes rules as to how suits are filed, tied and decided upon by the courts. (Bustos. vs. Lucero, GR. No, L-2068, 1948) Q: What are the limitations on the rule-making power of the Supreme Court under the Constitution? A a. The ules shall provide a simplified and inexpensive procedure for the speedy disposition of cases; b. The rules shall be uniform for courts of the same grade; and c. The rules shall not diminish, increase, or modify substantive rights (Put. Const. art Vull, § 6.) : What is the doctrine of hierarchy of courts? ‘A: The judicial system follows a ladderized scheme which in essence requires the lower courts to initially decide on a case before it is considered by a higher court. A higher court will not entertain direct resort to it unless the redress cannot be obtained in the appropriate courts (Santiago v. Vasquez, G.R. Nos. 99289.90, 1993). AA direct invocation of the Supreme Cour's original jurisdiction to issue this writ should be allowed only when there are special and important reasons, clearly and specifically set out in the petition. (Republic v. Caguioa, G.R. No. 174385, 2013) Q: What is the exhaustion of administrative remedies? A: The general rule is that before a party may seek the intervention of the court, he should first avail of all the means afforded him by administrative processes. The issues which administrative agencies are authorized to decide should not be summarily taken from them and submitted to a court without first giving such administrative agency the opportunity to dispose of the same after due deliberation. (Addition Hills v. Megaworld, G.R. No. 175039, 2012 citing Republic v. Lacap, G.R. No. 158253, 2007) : What is the doctrine of judicial hierarchy? A: The judicial hierarchy of courts generally applies to cases involving warring factual allegations. For this reason, Itigants are required to repair to the trial courts at the first instance to determine the truth or falsity of these contending allegations on the basis of the evidence of the parties. Cases which depend on disputed facts for decision cannot be brought immediately before appellate courts as they are not triers of facts, Be that as it may, its not an iron clad rule. A strict, application of the rule of hierarchy of courts is not necessary when the cases brought before the appellate courts do not involve factual but legal questions. (Mangaliag v. Catubig-Pastoral, GR. No. 143951,2005) @: What is the doctrine of judicial non- interference? ‘A: The doctrine of judicial stability or non- interference in the regular orders or judgments of a co-equal court is an elementary principle in the administration of justice: no court can interfere by injunction with the judgments or orders of another ‘court of concurrent jurisdiction having the power to grant the relief sought by the injunction. The rationale for the rule Is founded on the concept of jurisdiction: a court that acquires jurisdiction over PAGE 1 OF 152 ATENEO CENTRAL BAR OPERATIONS 2019 REMEDIAL LAW | order of some lower the case and renders judgment therein has jurisdiction over its judgment, to the exclusion of all other coordinate courts, for its execution and aver all its incidents, and to contro, in furtherance of justice, the conduct of ministerial officers acting in connection with this judgment. (Cabillv. Balindong, A.M. No. RTJ-10-2225, 2011).

A a. Exclusive Original - The power of the court to take judicial cognizance of a case instituted for Judicial action for the first time under the conditions provided by law, and to the exclusion of all other courts b. Delegated - The grant of authority to inferior courts to hear and determine cadastral and land registration cases under certain conditions . Territorial ~ It is the power and authority to exercise its power within its territorial region (Tan, Civil Procedure Book I: A Guide for the Bench and the Bar, 2017, pp. 99-104) hat is the doctrine of hierarchy of courts? The judicial system follows a ladderized scheme which in essence requires the lower courts to initially decide on a case before it is considered by a higher court. A higher court will not entertain direct resort to it unless the redress cannot be obtained in the appropriate courts (Santiago v. Vasquez, G.R. Nos. 99289-90, 1993) ‘A direct invocation of the Supreme Court's original jurisdiction to issue this writ should be allowed only when there are special and important reasons, clearly and specifically set out in the petition. (Republic v. Caguioa, G.R. No. 174385, 2013) PAGE 2 OF 152 ATENEO CENTRAL BAR OPERATIONS 2019 REMEDIAL LAW Q: What Is the doctrine of adherence of jurisdiction? ‘A: Once jurisdiction has attached, it cannot be ‘ousted by subsequent happenings or events, although the event is of such character which would have prevented jurisdiction from attaching in the first instance. Once jurisdiction has been acquired by the court, it retains that jurisdiction until it finally disposes of the case (Baritua v. Mercader, G.R. No. 136048, 2001). @ How is jurisdiction over the plaintiff acquired? ‘A: Jurisdiction over the person of the plaintiff is acquired by the filing of the initiatory pleading, such as a complaint (De Joya v. Marquez, G.R. No. 162416, 2006). Q: How is jurisdiction over the subject matter acquired? ‘A; Jurisdiction of the Court over the subject matter is conferred by law and determined by the allegations in the complaint (Ursua vs. RP, GR No. 178193, 2012) @: How is jurisdiction over the issues acquired? A: Itis acquired or conferred by the pleadings (De Joya v. Marquez, G.R. No. 162416, 2006). Q: How is jurisdiction over the res or property acquired? ‘A: It is acquired by the seizure of the thing under legal process or it may result from the institution of legal proceedings (De Joya v. Marquez, G.R. No. 162416, 2006). Q: Compare venue and jurisdiction.

In criminal cases, venue is jurisdictional (Nocum v. Tan, G.R. No. 145022, 2008, Dacoycoy v. IAC, G.R. No. 74854, 1991) Q: What happens when the venue is improperly laid? A; In civil proceedings, venue is procedural, not jurisdictional, and it may be waived by the defendant if not seasonably raised elther in a motion to dismiss or in the answer (BP! Family Savings Bank, Inc. v. Yujuico, G.R. No. 175796, 2018) PAGE 3 OF 152 ATENEO CENTRAL BAR OPERATIONS 2019 REMEDIAL LAW @: Does exclusive venue stipulation apply where the complaint assails the validity of the written instrument? ‘A: No. In cases where the complaint assails only the terms, conditions, and/or coverage of a written instrument and not its validity, the exclusive venue stipulation contained therein shall still be binding (on the parties, and thus, the complaint may be properly dismissed on the ground of improper venue. However, if the complaint assailis the validity of the written instrument itself, the parties should not be bound by the exclusive venue stipulation contained therein. Itwould be inherently inconsistent for a complaint of this nature to recognize the exclusive venue stipulation when it, in fact, precisely assails the validity of the instrument in which such stipulation is contained (Briones v. CA, G.R. No, 204444, 2018) Q: What are some actions incapable of pecuniary estimation? A 1. Actions for specific performance; 2. Actions for support which will require the determination of the civil status; 3. The right to support ofthe plaintiff; 4, Those for the annulment of decisions of lower courts; 5, Those for the rescission or reformation of contracts; 6. Interpretation of a contractual stipulation (Heirs of Bautista v. Lindo, G.R. No. 108232, 2014). Q: X filed a complaint to enforce his right granted by law to recover the lot subject of free patent. Which court has jurisdiction over the ‘complaint? ‘A: RTC. The action is for specific performance; hence, incapable of pecuniary estimation and is cognizable by the RTC. Although the selling price is less than PHP 20,000, the RTC still has jurisdiction because the repurchase of the lots is, only incidental to the exercise of the right to redeem, The reconveyance of the title to petitioners is not the principal or main relief or remedy sought (Heirs of Bautista v. Lindo G.R. No. 208232, 2014), : What is the nature of an action to recover deficiency on the extrajudicial foreclosure? AA; Itis a personal action for it does not affect tile to oF possession of real property, or any interest therein (BPI Savings Bank v. Spouses Benedicto, GR. No. 175796, 2018). Q: M filed before the DENR two Townsite Sales Applications. Upon his death, his applications ‘were transferred to his heirs, X. N executed a deed of transfer of rights, transferring his hereditary share in the property covered by TSA No. 123 to Sps Y and Z. Sometime thereafter, an OCT was issued in favor of X. X filed before the RTC a Complaint or Recovery of Possession of Real Property against Y and Z. Xallege that they are the true owners of the parcel of land that Y and Z's TSA encroach upon the subject property. RTC ruled in favor of X, but CA reversed the decision on the ground of lack of jurisdiction. Did RTC acquire jurisdiction over the complaint? ‘A: No. The Court held thatin an action for recovery of possession, the assessed value of the property ‘sought to be recovered determines the court's jurisdiction. In this case, for the RTC to exercise jurisdiction, the assessed value of the subject property must exceed P20,000.00. Since X failed to allege in their Complaint the assessed value of the subject property, the CA correctly dismissed the Complaint as petitioners failed to establish that the RTC had jurisdiction over it. In fact, since the assessed value of the property was not alleged, i cannot be determined which trial court had original and exclusive jurisdiction over the case. In an action to recover, the property must be identified. The plaintiff, therefore, is duty-bound to clearly identify the land sought to be recovered, in accordance with the title on which he anchors his Tight of ownership. In this case, X failed to identify the property they seek to recover as they failed to describe the location, the area, as well as the boundaries thereof. (Heirs of Julao v Alejandro, GR. No, 176020, September 29, 2014) Which is the basis in determining which court has jurisdiction over a complaint for accion publiciana? It depends on the assessed value of the property sought to be recovered (Supapo v. Sps. de Jesus, G.R. No. 198356, 2015). : The case is for the declaration of the nullity of a contract of loan and its accompanying continuing surety agreement, and the real estate and chattel mortgages. What is the nature of the action? Where should it be filed? PAGE 4 OF 152 ATENEO CENTRAL BAR OPERATIONS 2019 REMEDIAL LAW AA: It is a personal action; under Section 2, Rule 4 of the Rules of Court, the venue of a personal action Is the place where the plaintiff or any of the principal plaintifs resides, or where the defendant ‘or any of the principal defendants resides, or in the case of a non-resident defendant where he may be found, at the election of the plaintif, for which reason the action is considered a TRANSITORY fone. Unlike a real action, where it has to be ‘commenced and tried in the proper court having jurisdiction over the area wherein the real property involved, or a portion thereof is situated, which explains why the action is also refered to as. a LOCAL action (BPI v. Hontanosas, G.R. No. 18761325, 2014) How is jurisdiction of the court determined? A General Rule: The jurisdiction of the court is determined by the statute in force at the time of the commencement of the action. (Narra Nicke! Mining v. Redmont, G.R. No. 195580, 2014) Exception: Unless such statute provides for its retroactive application, as where it is a curative legislation. (Atlas Fertilizer v. Navarro, G.R. No. 72074, 1987) ‘The courts acquire jurisdiction over a case only upon payment of the prescribed docket fee. (Pacific Redhouse Corp v. EIB Securities, G.R. No, 184036, 2010) When several courts have concurrent jurisdiction, the first court which acquires jurisdiction retains it to the exclusion of the others. (Nenaria v. Veluz, GAR. No. L-4683, 1952) @: Which cases are covered by Barangay Conciliation? ‘A: All disputes are subject to Barangay conciliation and prior recourse thereto is a pre-condition before filing a complaint in court or any government offices, except in the following disputes: 1. Where one party is the goverment, or any subdivision or instrumentality thereof; 2. Where one party is a public officer or employee, land the dispute relates to the performance of his official functions; 3. Where the dispute involves real properties located in different cities and municipalities, unless the parties thereto agree to submit their difference to amicable settlement by an appropriate Lupon; 4, Any complaint by or against corporations, partnerships or juridical entities, since only individuals shall be parties to Barangay conciliation proceedings either as. ‘complainants or respondents (Sec. 1, Rule VI, Katarungang Pambarangay Rules); 5.

Offenses for which the law prescribes a maximum penalty of imprisonment exceeding tone (1) year or a fine over five thousand pesos (P5,000.00); 7. Offenses where there is no private offended party: 8. Disputes where urgent legal action is necessary to prevent injustice from being ‘committed or further continued, specifically the following: ‘a. Criminal cases where accused is under police custody or detention (See Sec. 412 (b)(1), Revised Katarungang Pambarangay Law); . Petitions for habeas corpus by @ person illegally deprived of his rightful custody over another or a person illegally deprived of his liberty or one acting in his behalf; .

(Guidelines on Katarungang Pambarangay Conciliation Procedure, Supreme Court Administrative Circular No, 14-93, 1993) : What cases are covered by small claims? Which court has jurisdiction over these cases? A: Actions before the MeTCs, MTCCs, MTCs and MTCTs for payment of money where the value of the claim does not exceed the jurisdictional ‘amount of these court under RA No 76991 (Php 400,000.00 for the MeTCs and Php 300,000.00 for the MTCCs, MTCs and MCTCs), exclusive of interest and costs.
