…..15 minutes to finish….

TOPIC: Consent in general (3 minutes)

a. Offer and acceptance
INTRO:
Dindi: good evening classmates, our team ____________ will explain through simple scenarios
the general concept of CONSENT. So seat back, relax and enjoy this mini show.

(scenario)
RIO: (magbabalot) BALUTTTT??!!!!
JET: balut!
RIO: (with accent) goodevening MADAM, im selling, whah du you call tha’ one? Ahh there!
BALOWT for only 15 pesos. Would you like to buy my balot? (PAUSE)

Dindi: so you can see in this case that manong magbabalot is giving an offer that is definite,
which in this case is the Balot he is selling for 15 pesos, so that the liability of the seller
and the buyer will be exactly fixed. Now let’s see what happens next.

JET: ohmay gudnes Koya, that’s my fevoreyt lagapa! Gib me 1 pieces plis!

(explanation)
Dindi: at this point, the acceptance was made by ate gurl and her acceptance was absolute.
Under Art1320, this acceptance was made expressly by verbally saying that she accepts
the offer, while in other contracts, the express acceptance of the offer may be made in
writing or verbally, just like in the given scenario.

Acceptance may also be given by ate Gurl, impliedly, just like this:

(scenario)
RIO: (with accent) goodevening MADAM, im selling, whah du you call tha’ one? Ahh there!
BALOWT for only 15 pesos. Would you like to buy my balot? (PAUSE)
Jet: (tumango at iniabot ang P15)

b. Counter offer
(explanation)
DINDI: what if tumawad si ate Gurl? Then incase tumawad sya kung pwedeng P13 pesos ang
isa, the offer of Kuya magbabalot is now inexistent, because it has been rejected by Ate gurl.
Her Tawad which is a counter is a new offer, where kuya magbabalot has to decide whether to
accept or not.
 c. RULE on Withdrawal of offer
Dindi: now let’s go to the rules on withdrawal of offer

(scenario)
Bentahan ng kotse
Jenny: (dialing phone) RING! RING! RING!
Hello, Mare! Mare, may iaalok ko sana yung Kotse ko dyan sa pilipinas sa inyo ni Pareng
Rio, 1 year used lang, 500K, kunin nyo na, Chin!

Jet: Ay, hello, mars! Gusto ko sana, Pero teka, itatanong ko muna kay Pare mo kung gusto
niyang kunin ha? Balitaan kita kaagad!

DINDI: Generally, habang wala pang acceptance sa offer, Mareng Jenny can still withdraw her
offer to Mareng Jet, kahit pa halimbawang binigyan ni mareng Jenny ng time si Mareng
Jet to accept.

Ang exception to this rule is: (option contract)

Now, kung present ang offer and acceptance, ibig bang sabihin na merong consent? Not
all the time, katulad ng scenariong ito:

(scenario)
Jetjet: (nag ttype ng text. Pero habang nag ttype eh babasahin)
Mareng Jenny, pumayag ang mister kong si Rio na bilhin naming ang kotse mo sa
halagang 500K, pwede na naming ipadala sa western union ang pera anytime. Textback!
“AYAN, NAGSENT NA!”

Jenny: tatawagan ko pala si Mareng Jet, kasi nabenta ko na yung kotse ko kay Kumareng Dindi.
Hello mare, sya nga pala, yung kotse ko,

Jet: oh

Jenny ehh, nabenta ko na kay Dindi, nakuha na nya kanina tapos nakapag bayad narin.

Jet: ha? E paano yun? Nagtext ako sayo diba, na kukunin naming? Bakit mo inalok kay Dindi?

Jenny: E mare, hindi ko pa naman nareceive yung text mo, bka sending palang!

Jet: hindi pwede mars, ako ang nauna!

(explanation)
DIndi: (explain the rule on withdrawing the offer, when it is withdrawable and when it is not)
TOPIC: VICES OF CONSENT

Dindi: we also have vices of consent, which in effect makes the contract voidable, but although
voidable, they are still binding according to 1390. Now what are the vices of consent.
Let’s watch this scenario

a. Theis v CA (1330,1390) MISTAKE

Bentahan ng lupa
Rio: Madam Jenny, meron akong napakagandang property na inoofer, nasa forbes park
500sq madam, dali kunin mo na. nakasale! 50% off. Dating 50M, ngayong 25M nalang!

Jenny: ay, parang gusto ko yan, sige bibilhin ko kaagad, ipapadala ko kaagad bukas sayo via
money remittance, bukas na bukas, kasi 12MN na dito sa Australia. Para naman pag uwi
ko jan sa pilipinas may property ako papatayuan ko.

Jenny: Hoy, MR. RIO! Bakit yung binenta mo saakin na vacant lot ay merong naka erect na
property doon? And owner daw ng lupa at bahay na yon ay Mrs. Legaspi? Ano ito? Paki
explain!

RIO: (will explain as in the facts of THEIS case)

DINDI: will explain mistake (1330-1334 important parts lang), and the ratio of Theis case.

b. FRAUD (1338)
Dindi: Another vice of consent is fraud, katulad nito.

Bentahan aso

Jenny: Hi, fren! May benta akong aso, ito ohh..(shows Dog, introduce dog, tell details and price)

Rio: alla, fren! Bet ko yan. Sige bayaran ko na agad tapos ipadala mon a agad via Grab ha?
Wait ko today. Thank you!

RIO: (nagrereklamo) fren, bat sabi mo e shih tsu, askal bitu???? Manloloko ka fren!

Dindi: Explain concept of fraud (1338-1344)

….

Side explanation (remedy of disadvantaged party, who is claiming that there was
mistake or Fraud):
 there is actually a remedy for a disadvantaged party as stated in 1332, this is when one
of the contracting parties allege that there was fraud or mistake because of his
disadvantaged situation, such as when he is unable to read or to understand the
language of the contract. 1332 states that before the other party can enforce the
contract, he must show that he has fully explained to the disadvantaged party the terms
and conditions and all the stipulations of their contract. As in the case of Hemedez v CA,
the court emphasized that 1332 is intended to protect a party due to illiteracy, mental
weakness, ignorance, another handicap, and that party entered into the contract but his
consent in vitiated by mistake or fraud.

1336 violence intimidation

Dindi: another vice of consent is intimidation as in this case
