Eminent domain

Both eminent domain and police power are being exercised at the same time, as a land reform is
concerned. ( association of small land owners)

how do you say that there is a restraint on the use of the property?

how do you say that there is a restraint on the use of the property? For purposes of eminent domain

(comprehensive land reform)

Retention limit – here is a certain size only of property that the land owner may own. If it exceeds, then
it may be the subject. It may be taken and be distributed to the land reform program. There is eminent
domain.

- there is limitation and if it exceeds the limitation,


- he land will be distributed to the landless. So that's the concept of land reform
- agrarian reform law provides for different modes of payment, not just cash, it can be bonds,
hares of stocks, among others.
- this is not just a traditional exercise, power of eminent domain. ather, this is a revolutionary
exercise of that power in the context of the state's Agrarian Reform Program.

Given that there's several modes of payment

(the concept of full and fair equivalent for purposes of just compensation apply to the revolutionary
exercise of the power of eminent domain,)

(does this apply to agrarian reform cases)

- yes, applies not just to the traditional exercise of eminent domain, but also the revolutionary
exercise, meaning it also applies even to agrarian reform cases.
o The law itself provides the parameters, section 17, of Ra 6657 enumerates, the factors
to be considered by the court in determining what constitutes just compensation for
purposes of agrarian reform.
o he Supreme Court enjoined, that courts to use the dar formula (which govern the
computation of just compensation)
- the modes of payment cannot exceed what the law provides
o the dar administrative circular, which provides for the opening of accounts in lieu of
deposit in cash or in bonds, was construed as illegal or void as the same is not
consistent with the provisions of our a RA 6657.
o determination of just compensation is a judicial function, it is a matter of fact.
- section 17 of the law, or RA 6657
o factors and formula in the determination of just compensation
 ormula provided by the Department of Agrarian Reform should be mandatory

Requisites of eminent domain ( requisites) – republic vs castellvi

- 1) The expropriator must enter a private property – this circumstance is present in the instant
case, when by virtue of a lease agreement the Republic, through PAF, took possession of the
property of Castellvi
- 2) The entrance into private property must be for more than a momentary period – the word
“momentary” when applied to possession or occupancy of property should be construed to
mean “a limited period” – not indefinite or permanent. The entry on the property, under the
lease, is temporary and considered transitory considering that the said contract is renewable
from year to year. The fact that the Republic constructed some installation of a permanent
nature does not alter the fact that the entry into the land was transitory or intended to last a
year.
- 3) The entry into the property should be under warrant or color of legal authority – this
circumstance is present in the instant case because Republic entered the Castellvi property as
lessee
- 4) The property must be devoted to a public use or otherwise informally appropriated or
injuriously affected – this is likewise present in this case because the property was used by the
air force of the AFP
- 5) The utilization of the property for public use must be in such a way as to oust the owner and
deprive him of all beneficial enjoyment of the property – this is wanting in this case as Castellvi
remained as owner and she was receiving the monthly rentals of the property; hence, she was
not deprived of the beneficial enjoyment of the property.

- the purpose to generate electricity in Mindanao
- heirs of makabangkit sangkay
- the buyer did buy the property (there are concerns regarding the next the tunnel and it would
affect the property that it would be unsafe for habitation)
- heirs sued for damages

Is there compensable taking

- the court ruled that compensable taking is not just actual taking, but there is destruction and
that the beneficial rights of the owner has been interrupted,
- The taking to be compensable need not be an actual physical taking or appropriation
- it may include destruction, restriction, diminution or interruption of the rights of ownership or
of the common and necessary use and enjoyment of the property in a lawful manner, lessening
or destroying its value.
o It doesn't matter if the owner is not deprived of the use of the property.
o It doesn't matter if the possession is retained by the rightful owner.
o it doesn't matter no ownership does not change hands
- there is impairment or lessening or destruction of the value of the property then there is
compensable taking

Didipio Earth-Savers Multi-Purpose Association v. Gozun, G.R. No. 157882, 30 March

2006

- Philippine mining act


- the properties involved here was subjected to entry by holders of mining rights, so that they
may reach the area where they they are mining.
- there's a provision in the Philippine mining act that allowed the holders of mining act to enter
the properties , so that they may enjoy these mining rights ( section 76 of Philippine mining act)
- The Supreme Court said that the provision is already a taking provision meaning section 76 in
effect, amounts to an authorization to take the proper properties or private lands, and for which
just compensation is warranted.
- More than just just a legal easement
- Supreme Court cited section 76 it provides no as a requirement the payment of compensation
for damages suffered by the surface owner occupant or concessionaire

Republic v. Spouses Regulto, G.R. No. 202051, April 18, 2016

- Free patents are subject to a right of way in favor of the government pursuant to Section 112. of
the Commonwealth. Act 141 or public land act
o a free patent is a mode of disposition of public agricultural land whereby an incomplete
or imperfect title over a parcel of land is administratively legalized.
- Lands which are the subject of free patents
- They are offered they're subjected to a right of way of not exceeding 60 meters
- The right of way exceeded the statutory right of way as provided under CA 141
o more than half of the property of spouse regulto so the goal was devoted as a bypass
road and there was material impairment of the value of the property
 if there is material impairment of the value of the property there is
taking
o since the bypass road exceeded the statutory right of way and impose greater burden
than that which should have been imposed upon the land owner then the land owners
in this case are entitled to just compensation.

how do we distinguish this from destruction From necessity?

- This is premised on the right the right to self preservation.

o there's no need to pay just compensation because this is disruption from necessity
o disruption from necessity may actually be done by private individuals so there is no
need for just compensation
o property here is not converted for public use

2nd requisite:

anything that is capable of appropriation by man may be expropriated, so it may be real or personal
property.

Things you can expropriate

- contractual rights as long as it's a property right


- ncorporeal rights because they are property rights
- anything that can be own by a man

Can expropriate money?

- It may be absurd.

choses in action from the scope of properties that may be expropriated (cannot be expropriated)

- Appropriatary rights
- It is a right which is a subject of a pending action or litigation
- the value of these rights are not yet definite, its still conjectural
o It's not even certain whether the one who files the action is entitled to the right being
asserted

Republic vs PLDT

- the government wants to enter into a contract with Blvd for InterConnection, but they could not
agree on the terms of the contract.

may the government require vldb to allow interconnection of the government telephone system to
its line

- A contract may be unknown if tainted by violence, intimidation or undue influence. So generally


no one is compelled to enter into a contract.
- Government, its power of eminent domain, it may require the telephone company to permit
inter connection.
- while real properties may be the subject of expropriation or may be subjected to easement of
right of way, lines and services to allow inter service connection is not much different

we have a constitutional provision pertaining to the transfer of ownership of utilities in the interest
of national welfare, subject to payment of just compensation.

Just compensation

- as the full and fair equivalent of the property taken from its owner by the expropriator
- About the owners loss

Market value- it is the price fixed by the seller in open market in the usual and ordinary course of legal
action and competition

- It is the amount that the seller would be willing to accept a payment, and the buyer would be
willing to give in an arm's length transaction.

Data in detrmining just compensation

National power corporation v diato Bernard

- The SC emphasize the justness of the compensation could only be attained by using reliable and
actual data as a basis for fixing the value of the condemned property.
o Sworn declaration of the owners
o Tax declaration
o Value of properties
o Cost of acquisition

Cannot be based in speculation


- the determination of just compensation is a question of fact so it’s a question of facts is a matter
of evidence
- it is incumbent upon the court to scrutinize that to determine the justness of compensation.

when do you reckon computation of just compensation

- But in case the filing of the complaint, for expropriation precedes the actual entry into the
property, then the computation of just compensation should be reckoned from the time of the
filing of the complaint.
- Whichever is earlier

City of Iloilo v. Contreras-Besana, G.R. No. 168976, February 12, 2010

- Case for expropriation against property to be converted into a school


- motion for issuance of a writ of possession was filed by the local government premised on the
deposit of the required amount, with a bank
- So despite opposition, the part of the land owner, the court sometime in 1983 granted the
motion for issuance of possession and as a result of which the school was constructed, meaning
the government was able to use the property already
o year 2009 file a motion on your property owner to withdraw the deposit only to find out
that the money was actually not deposited.

may the property owner recover possession of the property which was taken

- non payment of just compensation does not entitle the private land owners to recover
possession of the expropriated lot.

Two phases in expropriation case

- first phase- ends with an order of dismissal or a determination that the property is to be
acquired for a public purpose.
o stage rather when the courts determine whether the complaint is being filed based on
the public purpose whether the exploration is being done for a public purpose.
o So, if it ends in an order of dismissal, then the government may elevate by way of
appeal.
o If the court determines that it is for a public purpose, then the land owner may appeal
otherwise it may be final
- The second phase- consists of the determination of just compensation
o it ends with an order fixing the amount to be paid to the land owner.

since the land owner did not contest the grant of motion for insuance of writ of possession And
concomitantly the determination that the local government knew and had the right to expropriate then
such order became final
- the property owner can no longer recover the property even if there was no payment of just
compensation.
o the payment of actual and compensatory damages, loss interest, no. Actually the in the
actual or compensatory damages, will be in the form of interest, legal interest of 6% on
the value of the property , value at the time of the taking of the property.
o property owner is likewise entitled to exemplary damages and attorneys fees,

In fact, in just compensation can be considered as a forbearance of a sum of money. Hence, no, there is
a necessity to pay interest in theory in case there is a delay The payment of just compensation

Certain or prior issue governing interest rates

- may 1916 - by virtue of act 2655 interest rate was 6% or such rate as may be prescribed by the
Central Bank Monetary Board for loans or furtherance with money in the absence of Express
stipulation,
- june 29 1974- the central bank Monetary Board issued a resolution 1622. So, it increased the
legal rate from 6% to 12%. And this was maintained in the resolution of the central bank in
circular number 905 which took effect on December 22 1982
- may 16 2013 - by virtue of the BSP Monetary Board Resolution Number 796, by virtue of the BSP
Monetary Board Resolution Number 796. The legal rate was again brought down to 6% per
annum.

suppose the state no control of the property and did not pay just compensation.

(secretary of the Department of Public Works and highways versus spouses hera cleo)

- it ruled that the land owner is entitled to legal interest on top of the principal which is the fair
market value of the property at the time of the taking if the same was not paid
- and by virtue or because of the unlawful taking of the property. Again, the Supreme Court
declared that the land owner is entitled to exemplary damages
- if the state took control of the property without immediately initiating expropriation
proceedings, then it would allow the property owner to recover not just the just compensation
plus interest and property exemplary damages, attorneys fees and costs of litigation.

proper court. And here are the guidelines)
o Guidelines

order to take possession of the property and start the implementation of the project.
what if after seven days theres no writ of execution

- the Council of the implementing agency may file a motion may seek from the court the issuance
writ of possession and it requires no hearing anymore this treated as Ex parte.

what is required of the owner for the release of the amount deposited,

- the owner must present sufficient proofs of ownership. So of course, the best proof would be
specially since this pertains to real properties by Certificate of title that is the indefeasible proof
of ownership.

in case tthe implementing agency shall deposit the amount equivalent to the sum mention which I

- implementing agency shall pay the dock stamp tax transfer tax and registration fees while the
owner the owner shall pay the capital gains tax and any unpaid real property.
the similarities and distinctions now, among the three powers of the state

- already inherent
- they are already inherent in this in the state and may be exercised by it without need of Express
constitutional grant.
- they are not only necessary but indispensable. So, the state cannot continue or be effective
unless it is able to exercise these powers.
- they are methods by which the state interferes withprivate right.
- they all presuppose an equivalent compensation for the private rights interfered with and they
may be exercised primarily by the legislature.

Dist

-the police power regulates both liberty and property.

- the power of eminent domain and the power of taxation affect only property right.

- police power in the power of taxation may be exercised only by the government while the power
of eminent domain may be exercised by some private entities,ex: orporations with a charter and
authorized to exercise the power of eminent domain

- the power or rather the property taken in the exercise of police power is destroyed, because it is
noxious or intended for a noxious purpose.

- the property taken under the power of eminent domain and the power of taxation is intended for
a public use or purpose. Therefore, wholsome
bill of rights under article three of the Constitution

People v marty

it's only a limitation to governmental acts so these setup rights only limit governmental act

- package inspected
- violating dangerous act
- is the evidence admissible, yes
- what is the nature of the search of the proprietor
- IT WAS A PRIVATE SEARCH ONLY
- Limits only governmenatal actions
- the constitutional prohibition on unlawful searches and seizures No. applies only when the same
way when the same know when the search is done by the government and its agencies
- \It cannot be applied to a search done by a private person
- - the Supreme Court, the Bill of Rights, particularly the constitutional perscription under article
three, section two only applies to government agencies to the searches conducted by the
government and its agents.

Civil code art 32

- Private persons

how do we reconcile that with article 32 of the new civil code?

- protect civil liberties, but at the same time, may be violated by private individuals,

- o person shall be deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law
- Unlike an alien, there are additional requirements
- foreigners are also entitled to due process. Now, once they're admitted to the country, there's a
certain level of protection that they're entitled to know. So, for instance, in deportation
proceedings, we cannot just simply kick out an alien without hearing their sign for so there's a
deportation proceeding, though we have the importation procedures that must be followed
- oreigner is entitled to certain protection under the due process clause, even the equal
protection clause. So as a foreigner, no, is entitled to due process just like citizens, although they
very know that the treatment accorded to them by law bar is no shouldn't pass up money equal
protection of the law.

There are certain protections that a citizen is entitled to the foreigner is not entitled t0

- foreigners are subjected to additional requirements that are not applicable to citizens. So the
treat the treatment of the law varies.

the due process requirements for a foreigner would vary from the due process requirement for a
citizen
The right to life

(Civil Code provision articles 40 and 41.)

when does life commence?

- So meaning the life of the fetus is already protected by law.

article two section 12 civil code

- The state shall equally protect the right of the mother and the rights of the unborn from
conception

Imbong v ochoa

- Because the petitioners there argued that the law in fact encourages abortion it's a violation of
the right to life.

when do you consider a child conceived? When does life start

- life begins from fertilization. Sperm meets the egg


- when you terminate life inside there is already a consequence cannot be penalized not in an
abortion
o sanction abortion in the Philippines would be unconstitutional because of this, because
article two section 12 is a response of the framers of the Constitution to the Roe vs.
Wade ruling which allows that is a decision of the US Supreme Court allowing abortion
under certain guidelines

life of a baby may be terminated

- if it endagers the life of the mother

due process also applies to your right to employment because your right to life does not Just mean by

- right to ameaningful life

substantive and procedural due process

substantive- ubstantive due process means that an employee may only be dismissed or
terminated from employment for a course there must be jobs or authorized costs provided by law.

Procedural - means that an employee may only be terminated from employment.

Suspension employment

- The Supreme Court said it must be balanced with the proper exercise of police power. our right
to employment, our right to travel is always subject to the proper exercise of police power.
giu process must also be balanced with the right of the state to restrict Liberty

- violation of our penal laws is a perfect example of a restraint to liberty but rquires due process

Government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region v. Olalia, G.R. No. 153657,

19 April 2007

- is there a right to bail in extradition cases


o (xtradition is a sub process or of removal of an accused from the Philippines with the
object of placing him at the disposal of foreign authorities, to enable the requesting
state or government to hold him in connection with any criminal investigation directed
against him or the execution of a penalty imposed on him under the penal or criminal
law of the requesting state, or government.
o it is the right of a foreign power created by a treaty to demand the surrender of an
accused or, or one was convicted of a crime within the territorial jurisdiction for another
country, and the relative duty of the other state to surrender that person to the
demanding state.

Due process varies

- it refers to the procedure, whereas substantive due process refers to the very justification, no.
Very justification for the government's action in taking or in restricting uppers a person's rights
to life, liberty or property.

serves as a restriction on the lawmaking and rulemaking power of the government.
