5. A stipulation in the said lease contract provides that in case of default by the lessee
of the payment of the rent such as when the checks are dishonored, the plaintiff at
its option may terminate this contract and eject the lessee;
6. On January 28, 2016, the plaintiff tried to encash BPI Check No. 25613
corresponding to the rental payment for the month of January but the same was
dishonored due to insufficiency of funds;
7. On the same day, plaintiff informed the respondent that the latter’s check was
dishonored and demanded that formed be paid in cash instead but the respondent
failed to do so;
8. On February 28, 2016, the plaintiff tried to encash BPI Check No. 25614
corresponding to the rental payment for the month of February but the same was also
dishonored due to insufficiency of funds;
9. On the same day, plaintiff again went to the respondent and demanded for the
payment of the two dishonored checks and for respondent to vacate the premises but
respondent failed to tender payment and refused to vacate the premises;
10. On March 15, 2016, plaintiff, with assistance of a counsel, sent a formal demand

Nasasakdal.

x---------------------------------x

REKLAMO
NAGSASALITA, sa pamamagitan ng tagapayo, at sa Kagalang-galang na
Hukuman na ito, sa buong paggalang na sinasabi: IYON
1. Ang nagsasakdal ay nasa legal na edad, Filipino, na may tirahan at postal address
sa 777 Heaven St., San Antonio, Cavite City kung saan siya ay maaaring maghatid
ng mga abiso at iba pang proseso ng hukuman;
2. Nasa legal na edad ang respondent, Filipino, na may tirahan at postal address sa
518 VC Apartments M. Gregorio St., San Antonio, Cavite City;
3. Ang nagsasakdal ay ang ganap na may-ari at nagpapaupa ng partikular na
apartment na iyon na matatagpuan sa Cavite City at ngayon ay inuupahan ang ad
na inookupahan ng respondent;
4. Alinsunod sa kontrata sa pag-upa (Exhibit A) na isinagawa ng nagsasakdal at ng
respondent na may petsang Oktubre 28, 2015, obligado ang respondent na
magbayad ng buwanang bayad sa pag-upa na P10,000.00 sa nagsasakdal;
5. Ang isang takda sa nasabing kontrata sa pag-upa ay nagsasaad na kung sakaling
hindi mabayaran ng nangungupahan ang pagbabayad ng upa tulad ng kapag ang
mga tseke ay hindi pinarangalan, ang nagsasakdal sa opsyon nito ay maaaring
wakasan ang kontratang ito at paalisin ang lessee;
6. Noong Enero 28, 2016, sinubukan ng nagsasakdal na i-encash ang BPI Check No.
25613 na naaayon sa bayad sa pag-upa para sa buwan ng Enero ngunit ito rin ay
hindi pinarangalan dahil sa kakulangan ng pondo;
7. Sa parehong araw, ipinaalam ng nagsasakdal sa respondent na ang tseke ng huli ay
hindi pinarangalan at hiniling na bayaran ang nabuo sa halip na cash ngunit nabigo
ang respondent na gawin ito;
8. Noong Pebrero 28, 2016, sinubukan ng nagsasakdal na i-encash ang BPI Check
No. 25614 na naaayon sa bayad sa pag-upa para sa buwan ng Pebrero ngunit ito rin
ay hindi pinarangalan dahil sa kakulangan ng pondo;
9. Noong araw ding iyon, muling nagtungo ang nagsasakdal sa respondent at hiningi
ang pagbabayad ng dalawang dishonored na tseke at lisanin ng respondent ang
lugar ngunit nabigo ang respondent na magbayad at tumanggi na lisanin ang lugar;
10. Noong Marso 15, 2016, ang nagsasakdal, sa tulong ng isang abogado, ay nagpadala
ng isang pormal na demand letter (Exhibit B) sa respondent na nagbibigay sa kanya
ng sampung araw upang bayaran ang kanyang rental at lisanin ang lugar;

11. Noong Marso 25, 2016, sa pagtatapos ng sampung araw na palugit na ibinigay ng
nagsasakdal, hindi pa rin nagbabayad ang respondent at patuloy na tumatanggi na
lisanin ang mga apartment;
12. Hanggang ngayon, tumatanggi pa rin ang respondent na lisanin at ibalik ang pag-
aari at bayaran ang kanyang mga inuupahan.
13. Kaya, labag sa batas na ipinagkakait ng respondent ang pagmamay-ari ng paksang
apartment mula sa nagsasakdal sa kabila ng huli at huling kahilingan, sa pinsala at
pagkiling ng nagsasakdal;
14. Bago ihain ang reklamong ito, ang hindi pagkakaunawaan ay isinangguni sa
Lupong Tagapamayapa ng Lungsod ng Cavite ngunit nabigong humarap ang
respondent, kaya naman, walang maayos na pag-aayos (Exhibit C).

PANALANGIN
KAYA, ang mga lugar na isinasaalang-alang, ito ay lubos na magalang na
idinadalangin ng Kagalang-galang na Hukuman na pagkatapos ng nararapat na
paunawa at pagdinig, ay ibigay ang hatol na pabor sa Nagsasakdal:
1. Para sa pagsasauli ng nabanggit na apartment;
2. Para sa pagbabayad ng DALAWAMPUNG LIBONG PESOS (P20,000.00),
pera ng Pilipinas, na kumakatawan sa atraso ng upa na overdue na;
3. Upang bayaran ang halaga ng suit
Ang iba pang mga kaluwagan na makatarungan at patas sa ilalim ng lugar ay
ipinagdarasal din.

Represented By:
FABIAN B. TAPAYAN JR.
Plaintiff,
-versus- for

BABE REVELO LAUREA Recovery of Possession


Defendant. With Prayer for
Preliminary Mandatory Injunction
x----------------------------------x

COMPLAINT

Comes Now, Plaintiff through undersigned counsel, unto the Honorable Court,
most respectfully states and avers: THAT-

1. Plaintiff is of legal age, married, and resident of Paglaum II, Tuburan

is hereto attached and marked as Annex “A” and “A-1”)

3. Defendant is likewise of legal age, and resident of Purok Tabing-Ilog,

4. Plaintiff is the true and registered owner of a parcel of land situated in Purok
Riverside, Balangasan District, Pagadian City covered by Transfer
Certificate of Title No. T-4,465 consisting of an area of ONE HUNDRED
EIGHTY (180) square meters; (hereto attached and marked as Annex “B”,
(“B-1”, “B-2” and “B-3”) is the copy of the Certified True Copy of TCT No.
T-4,465)

5. The present assessed value of the subject parcel of land is Six Thousand
Three Hundred Pesos (P 6,300.00) as can be gleaned from the present tax
declaration of the same under Tax Declaration No. 2K9-002930; (hereto
attached as Annex “C” is copy of said tax declaration for reference)
6. The subject parcel of land was declared in the name of the Plaintiff for tax
purposes since 1980 under Tax Declaration No. 1631; (copy of Tax
Declaration No. 1631 is hereto attached and marked as Annexes “D” and
“D-1”;

7. Plaintiff has been paying the real property taxes of the subject parcel of land
since 1980 up to the present as evidenced by the certification issued by the
Office of the City Treasurer of Pagadian City dated 6 November 2017;
(hereto attached and marked as Annex “E”;

8. Since Plaintiff had no immediate need of the subject parcel of land, the
former allowed Defendant and her family to occupy the same with the
condition that the latter shall vacate the subject parcel of land after demand
is made upon them by the Plaintiff; (hereto attached and marked as Annexes
“F” and “F-1” is the affidavit of Miguel Alvar Bernante for reference)

9. Sometime in year 2012, Plaintiff demanded from the Defendant and her
family to vacate the said subject property but the latter refused and still
continue to occupy the said property;

10. Sometime in year 2016, the said subject lot was gutted by fire including the
house erected thereon. As a result thereof, Plaintiff, through his son, decided
to cordon the area and instructed the Defendant and her descendants to
vacate the premises, however, the latter refused to turn over the property and
instead constructed a house thereat; (pictures of the wreckage of the property
after the fire incident is hereto attached for reference and marked as Annexes
“G”, “G-1”, “G-2”, “G-3”, “G-4” and “G-5”);

11. Consequently, Plaintiff was able to secure a copy of a Notice of Illegal


Construction issued by the Office of the Building Official, Pagadian City,
dated 11 July 2016. In that notice, Defendant was advised to stop the
construction of the house over the subject property. (A copy of said notice is
hereto attached for reference and marked as Annex “H”);

12. On 18 July 2016, Plaintiff thru a lawyer demanded the Defendant to cease
and desist from further constructing a house in the said subject property as
herein Defendant continued to construct and build a house thereat. The
demand letter was delivered to the thru the Office of the Barangay of
Barangay Balangasan, Pagadian City; (A copy of the demand letter, pictures
depicting the construction of the house, and the affidavit of the Barangay
Messenger are hereto attached for reference and marked as Annexes “I”,
“J”(“J-1”, “J-2”, “J-3”, and J-4”) and “K” respectively);

13. A case for unlawful detainer was already been instituted by the Plaintiff
against herein Defendant which was docketed with Civil Case No. 2599. The
case was dismissed by the Court in favor of the Defendant for, accordingly,
failure of the Plaintiff to bring the action personally before the Lupon
Tagapamayapa for the conciliation proceedings;
14. After the dismissal of the case, another demand letter was sent to the
Defendant demanding her to vacate the subject parcel of land with the
assistance of the Office of the Barangay of Barangay Balangasan,
unfortunately, this time, Defendant refused to receive the demand letter; (
hereto attached and marked as Annex “L” is the copy of the demand letter
dated 15 December 2017)

15. By reason thereof, Plaintiff was constrained to send a demand letter by way
of registered mail, but was returned unserved for “ Party Out No One to
Received” . Another demand letter was again sent by way of registered mail
but likewise returned unserved for the same reason;

16. Despite numerous demands for her and her family to vacate, Defendant has
remained in illegal possession of the said land up to the present and still
retain such possession;

17. Defendant has been in possession over the parcel of land without any legal
right. In fact, it is herein Plaintiff who is paying the annual real property
taxes of the subject parcel of land. Defendant is enjoying the possession over
the same to the prejudice of the registered owner of the parcel of land,
considering that Plaintiff despite wanting to ;

18. The reasonable rental of the land is Php 3,000.00 per month;

19. Accordingly, while possession by tolerance is lawful, such possession


becomes illegal upon demand to vacate is made by the owner and the
possessor by tolerance refuses to comply with such demand (Prieto v. Reyes
14 SCRA 432; Yu v. De Lara, 6 SCRA 786, 788; Isidro v. Court of Appeals,
G.R. No. 105586, December 15, 1993);

20. A person who occupies the land of another at the latter’s tolerance or
permission without any contract between them, is necessarily bound by an
implied promise that he will vacate upon demand (Yu v. De Lara, supra cited
in Sumulong v. Court of Appeals, G.R. No. 108817, May 10, 1994);

21. Due to unjust refusal of the Defendant to vacate and return the said land to
the Plaintiff, the latter was considered to endorse the said matter to his legal
counsel for the filling of an appropriate action in court and incurred
attorney’s fees in the amount of Php 50, 000.00 and the amount of Php 2,
500.00 per court hearing;

22. This action is being filed within a period of two (2) years from the demand
on Defendant to vacate the said property.

PETITION FOR ISSUANCE OF THE WRIT OF PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION


Plaintiff re-pleads all the foregoing allegations by way of reference in so far as they
are for the issuance of preliminary injunction.

23. That the plaintiff is entitled to the relief demanded and the whole or part of
such relief consist in ordering the defendant to deliver to the plaintiff
possession of the land subject of this case which is described under
paragraph 4 of the complaint;

24. That the continued possession or continuance of the unlawful acts

his land and considering that the defendant has already constructed a
structure on the land.

25. That the plaintiff is able and willing to put up an injunction bond in the sum
fixed by this Honorable court, executed in favor of the defendant to the effect
that the plaintiff will pay all damages which defendant may suffer as a result
of the injunction if the court should finally decide that plaintiff is not entitled
thereto.

PRAYER

Honorable Court that pending final judgment, a writ of preliminary mandatory
injunction be issued ordering the defendant to vacate and deliver to the plaintiff the
land described under paragraph 3 of the complaint and after due hearing making

at patuloy pa ring inookupahan ang nasabing ari-arian;

10. Noong taong 2016, natupok ng apoy ang nasabing subject lot kasama na ang
bahay na itinayo sa ibabaw nito. Bilang resulta nito, nagpasya ang
Nagsasakdal, sa pamamagitan ng kanyang anak, na i-cordon ang lugar at
inutusan ang Nasasakdal at ang kanyang mga inapo na lisanin ang lugar,
gayunpaman, tumanggi ang huli na ibalik ang ari-arian at sa halip ay nagtayo
ng bahay doon; (mga larawan ng pagkasira ng ari-arian pagkatapos ng
insidente ng sunog ay nakalakip dito bilang sanggunian at minarkahan bilang
Annexes "G", "G-1", "G-2", "G-3", "G-4" at " G-5”);

11. Dahil dito, nakuha ng Nagsasakdal ang isang kopya ng Notice of Illegal
Construction na inisyu ng Office of the Building Official, Pagadian City, na
may petsang 11 July 2016. Sa notice na iyon, pinayuhan ang Defendant na
ihinto ang pagtatayo ng bahay sa subject property. . (Ang isang kopya ng
nasabing paunawa ay nakalakip dito para sa sanggunian at minarkahan
bilang Annex "H");

12. Noong ika-18 ng Hulyo 2016, ang Nagsasakdal sa pamamagitan ng isang


abogado ay humiling sa Nasasakdal na itigil at itigil ang karagdagang
pagtatayo ng isang bahay sa nasabing paksang ari-arian dahil dito
nagpatuloy ang Nasasakdal sa pagtatayo at pagtatayo ng isang bahay doon.
Ang demand letter ay inihatid sa pamamagitan ng Office of the Barangay of
Barangay Balangasan, Pagadian City; (Ang isang kopya ng demand letter,
mga larawan na naglalarawan sa pagtatayo ng bahay, at ang affidavit ng
Barangay Messenger ay kalakip dito bilang sanggunian at minarkahan
bilang Annexes “I”, “J” (“J-1”, “J-2 ”, “J-3”, at J-4”) at “K” ayon sa
pagkakabanggit);

13. Ang isang kaso para sa labag sa batas na detainer ay sinimulan na ng


Nagsasakdal laban sa Defendant dito na naka-docket ng Civil Case No.
2599. Ang kaso ay ibinasura ng Korte pabor sa Defendant para sa, nang
naaayon, sa pagkabigo ng Nagsasakdal na personal na dalhin ang aksyon.
bago ang Lupon Tagapamayapa para sa conciliation proceedings;

14. Matapos ang pagbasura ng kaso, isa pang demand letter ang ipinadala sa
Defendant na humihiling sa kanya na lisanin ang subject parcel of land sa
tulong ng Office of the Barangay of Barangay Balangasan, sa kasamaang
palad, sa pagkakataong ito, ang Defendant ay tumanggi na tumanggap ng
demand letter; ( dito kalakip at minarkahan bilang Annex “L” ang kopya ng
demand letter na may petsang 15 December 2017)

15. Dahil dito, napilitan ang Nagsasakdal na magpadala ng isang demand letter
sa pamamagitan ng rehistradong koreo, ngunit ibinalik nang hindi naihatid
para sa "Party Out No One to Received" . Ang isa pang demand letter ay
muling ipinadala sa pamamagitan ng rehistradong koreo ngunit ibinalik din
nang hindi naihatid para sa parehong dahilan;

16. Sa kabila ng maraming kahilingan para sa kanya at sa kanyang pamilya na


lisanin, ang Nasasakdal ay nanatili sa iligal na pagmamay-ari ng nasabing
lupa hanggang sa kasalukuyan at nananatili pa rin ang naturang pag-aari;

17. Nasa pagmamay-ari ng nasasakdal ang parsela ng lupa nang walang


anumang legal na karapatan. Sa katunayan, narito ang Nagsasakdal na
nagbabayad ng taunang mga buwis sa real property ng paksang parsela ng
lupa. Tinatangkilik ng nasasakdal ang pag-aari sa parehong pagkiling ng
rehistradong may-ari ng parsela ng lupa, isinasaalang-alang ang
Nagsasakdal sa kabila ng pagnanais na ;

18. Ang makatwirang upa ng lupa ay Php 3,000.00 bawat buwan;

19. Alinsunod dito, habang ang pagmamay-ari sa pamamagitan ng


pagpapaubaya ay naaayon sa batas, ang naturang pagmamay-ari ay nagiging
labag sa batas kapag hinihiling na lisanin ng may-ari at ang nagmamay-ari
sa pamamagitan ng pagpapaubaya ay tumangging sumunod sa naturang
kahilingan (Prieto v. Reyes 14 SCRA 432; Yu v. De Lara, 6 SCRA 786, 788;
Isidro laban sa Court of Appeals, GR No. 105586, Disyembre 15, 1993);

20. Ang isang tao na sumasakop sa lupain ng iba sa pagpapaubaya o pahintulot


ng huli nang walang anumang kontrata sa pagitan nila, ay kinakailangang
nakatali sa isang ipinahiwatig na pangako na siya ay lilisanin kapag
hinihiling (Yu v. De Lara, supra na binanggit sa Sumulong v. Court of
Appeals, GR No. 108817, Mayo 10, 1994);

21. Dahil sa hindi makatarungang pagtanggi ng Nasasakdal na lisanin at ibalik


ang nasabing lupa sa Nagsasakdal, ang huli ay itinuring na i-endorso ang
nasabing usapin sa kanyang legal na tagapayo para sa pagpuno ng naaangkop
na aksyon sa korte at natamo ang mga bayad sa abogado sa halagang Php 50
, 000.00 at ang halagang Php 2, 500.00 kada pagdinig sa korte;

22. Ang aksyon na ito ay inihahain sa loob ng dalawang (2) taon mula sa
kahilingan ng Nasasakdal na lisanin ang nasabing ari-arian.

PETITION FOR ISSUANCE OF THE WRIT OF PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION

Ang nagsasakdal ay muling nagsusumamo sa lahat ng nabanggit na mga paratang


sa pamamagitan ng sanggunian hanggang sa ang mga ito ay para sa pagpapalabas
ng preliminary injunction.

23. Na ang nagsasakdal ay may karapatan sa hinihinging lunas at ang kabuuan


o bahagi ng naturang kaluwagan ay binubuo sa pag-uutos sa nasasakdal na
ihatid sa nagsasakdal ang pag-aari ng lupang paksa ng kasong ito na
inilarawan sa ilalim ng talata 4 ng reklamo;

24. Na ang patuloy na pagmamay-ari o pagpapatuloy ng mga labag sa batas na


gawaing inirereklamo sa panahon ng paglilitis ay magdudulot ng hindi
maibabalik na pinsala sa nagsasakdal na maling pinipigilan sa pagpasok at
pag-aari ng kanyang lupain at isinasaalang-alang na ang nasasakdal ay
nakapagtayo na ng isang istraktura sa lupa.

JUAN DELA CRUZ,


Plaintiff
Civil Case No. xxx
- Versus –
Unlawful Detainer
MARIA CLARA, etc.,
Defendants.
x---------------------------------x

ANSWER
(In re: Summons, Received on
xxx 2011)

The DEFENDANT xxx, by counsel, respectfully states:

I. ANSWER

1. Paragraphs 1 and 2 of the Complaint are admitted.

2. Paragraphs 2 to 6 of the Complaint are denied for lack of knowledge or information sufficient to form a belief
as to the veracity or falsity thereof, the allegations therein being matters known only to, and are within the
control only, of the plaintiff.

3. Paragraphs 7 to 9 of the Complaint are admitted.

4. Paragraph 10 of the Complaint is denied for lack of knowledge and information sufficient to form a belief as
to the veracity or falsity of the alleged amounts of attorney’s fees agreed upon between the plaintiff and her
lawyer. The said paragraph is likewise denied insofar as it alleges that the defendant has no basis or
justification to occupy the subject property, the truth being those alleged in the special and affirmative
defenses part herein below.

II. SPECIAL AND AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSES

5. The title to and ownership in fee simple over the subject property is in the name of the Government Service
Insurance System (GSIS), its registered owner, and not the plaintiff. (See Annex “A”, Par. 3, Complaint).

6. The plaintiff is not “the owner” in fee simple of the subject property, contrary to her allegation in Par. 3 of
the Complaint.

7. The alleged Deed of Conditional Sale between the GSIS and the plaintiff is not annotated on the title on the
property. (See dorsal side of the title of the property, marked as Annex “A”, Par. 3, Complaint).

8. Although the GSIS has given the plaintiff the right of possession of the property under Par. 4 © of the Deed
of Conditional Sale (Annex “B”, Par. 4, Complaint), the plaintiff knew or was supposed to know or was
deemed by law to be obligated to know and to investigate the fact that at the time of her purchase of the
property, the xxx Family were in possession of the property and that it had a vested, beneficial and equitable
right thereto by reason of Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) executed in 1975 between its original
purchaser xxx, represented by xxx, on the one hand, and the matriarch of the xxx Family, i.e., xxx, on the
other.
A copy of the said MOA is attached as Annex “1”.
A copy of the Special Power of Attorney of xxx (1974) is attached as Annex “2” hereof.

9. Since 1975 up to the present time, the xxx Family has been in possession of the subject property by reason
of the said MOA. This fact was known to plaintiff when she investigated the background property until the
time she closed her purchase thereof with the GSIS. There is no proof that plaintiff had reported the real
situation of the property to the GSIS for a solution or amicable settlement between the parties prior to her
purchase thereof. Likewise, the GSIS did not send any investigator to investigate the situation of the
property prior to and at the time of its sale to the plaintiff. It did not issue any formal notice to the defendant
or the xxx Family about the impending attempt of the plaintiff to purchase the property. Had the xxx Family
been notified thereon, they would have taken urgent steps to acquire the same instead of the plaintiff.

10. In 2002, Sps. xxx, the parents of the herein defendant xxx, executed a Special Power of Attorney in favor
of the herein defendant, a copy of which is marked as Annex “3” hereof.
11. The defendant had answered the demanded letter, dated xxx 2011, of the plaintiff through a letter, dated
xxx 2011, of defendant’s counsel, a copy of which is attached as Annex “4” hereof. It requested plaintiff’s
lawyer for a special conference to discuss a serious extrajudicial compromise, without admission of guilt on
the part of the defendant. It was not formally answered by the plaintiff.

12.GSIS is an (if not “the”) indispensable party in the suit being the registered owner in fee simple of the subject
property. The ownership rights of plaintiff under her unannotated Deed of Conditional Sale with the GSIS
are merely inchoate and contingent. The Complaint shows no Board Resolution from the Board of Trustees
of the GSIS empowering the plaintiff to sue the defendant in behalf of the GSIS in the instant case.

III. COMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM

13.By reason of the abuse of right committed by the plaintiff and by reason of the instant precipitate and
unfounded suit, the defendant was constrained to hire the services of a lawyer to defend his rights and
interests for a professional fee of P20,000.00 plus P3,000.00 per court appearance;

14.Similarly, the plaintiff’s unfounded suit has caused the defendant mental anguish and suffering and public
humiliation and embarrassment, for which the defendant claims moral damages of P100,000.00.

IV. PRAYER

WHEREFORE, premises considered, it is respectfully prayed that the parties be given ample time
to reach an amicable settlement before the xxx City Mediation Center; and that in case of a failure thereof,
and after trial, the complaint be dismissed for lack of merit and the defendant’s compulsory counterclaim be
granted, i.e.. attorney’s fees of P20,000.00 plus moral damages of P100,000.00, plus costs of suit.
The defendant respectfully prays for such and other reliefs as may be deemed just and equitable
in the premises.

Mga nasasakdal.
x---------------------------------x

ANSWER
(In re: Summons, Natanggap noong
xxx 2011)

Ang DEFENDANT xxx, sa pamamagitan ng abogado, ay magalang na nagsasaad:

I. ANSWER

1. Ang mga talata 1 at 2 ng Reklamo ay tinatanggap.

2. Ang mga talata 2 hanggang 6 ng Reklamo ay tinatanggihan dahil sa kakulangan ng kaalaman o


impormasyong sapat upang bumuo ng isang paniniwala sa katotohanan o kamalian nito, ang mga paratang
dito ay mga bagay na alam lamang, at nasa kontrol lamang, ng nagsasakdal.

3. Ang mga talata 7 hanggang 9 ng Reklamo ay tinatanggap.

4. Ang talata 10 ng Reklamo ay tinanggihan dahil sa kakulangan ng kaalaman at impormasyong sapat upang
bumuo ng isang paniniwala sa katotohanan o kamalian ng mga di-umano'y halaga ng mga bayad sa
abogado na napagkasunduan sa pagitan ng nagsasakdal at ng kanyang abogado. Ang nasabing talata ay
itinatanggi din sa kadahilanang ito ay nagsasaad na ang nasasakdal ay walang batayan o katwiran upang
sakupin ang paksang pag-aari, ang katotohanan ay ang mga pinaghihinalaang nasa espesyal at afirmative
defenses na bahagi dito sa ibaba.

II. ESPESYAL AT MGA AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSES

5. Ang titulo at pagmamay-ari sa simple fee sa subject na ari-arian ay nasa pangalan ng Government Service
Insurance System (GSIS), ang rehistradong may-ari nito, at hindi ang nagsasakdal. (Tingnan ang Annex
“A”, Par. 3, Reklamo).

6. Ang nagsasakdal ay hindi "ang may-ari" sa simpleng bayad ng paksang ari-arian, salungat sa kanyang
paratang sa Par. 3 ng Reklamo.
7. Ang sinasabing Deed of Conditional Sale sa pagitan ng GSIS at ng nagsasakdal ay walang anotasyon sa
titulo sa ari-arian. (Tingnan ang dorsal side ng titulo ng property, na minarkahan bilang Annex “A”, Par. 3,
Reklamo).

8. Bagama't binigyan ng GSIS ang nagsasakdal ng karapatang magkaroon ng ari-arian sa ilalim ng Par. 4 ©
ng Deed of Conditional Sale (Annex “B”, Par. 4, Reklamo), alam o dapat alam ng nagsasakdal o itinuring
ng batas na obligadong malaman at imbestigahan ang katotohanan na sa panahon ng kanyang pagbili ng
ari-arian, ang xxx Pamilya ay nagmamay-ari ng ari-arian at na ito ay may vested, kapaki-pakinabang at
pantay na karapatan dito sa pamamagitan ng Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) na isinagawa noong
1975 sa pagitan ng orihinal na bumibili nito xxx, na kinakatawan ng xxx, sa isang banda, at ang matriarch
ng xxx Family, ibig sabihin, xxx, sa kabilang banda.
Ang kopya ng nasabing MOA ay kalakip bilang Annex “1”.
Ang isang kopya ng Espesyal na Kapangyarihan ng Abugado ng xxx (1974) ay nakalakip bilang Annex
"2" dito.

9. Mula noong 1975 hanggang sa kasalukuyan, ang xxx Family ay nagmamay-ari ng subject property dahil
sa nasabing MOA. Ang katotohanang ito ay nalaman ng nagsasakdal nang siya ay nag-imbestiga sa
background na ari-arian hanggang sa oras na isara niya ang kanyang pagbili nito sa GSIS. Walang patunay
na iniulat ng nagsasakdal ang tunay na sitwasyon ng ari-arian sa GSIS para sa isang solusyon o maayos
na kasunduan sa pagitan ng mga partido bago siya bumili nito. Gayundin, ang GSIS ay hindi nagpadala ng
sinumang imbestigador upang imbestigahan ang sitwasyon ng ari-arian bago at sa oras ng pagbebenta
nito sa nagsasakdal. Hindi ito nagbigay ng anumang pormal na paunawa sa nasasakdal o sa xxx Family
tungkol sa nalalapit na pagtatangka ng nagsasakdal na bilhin ang ari-arian. Kung ang xxx Family ay
naabisuhan tungkol doon, sila ay gumawa ng mga agarang hakbang upang makuha ang pareho sa halip
na ang nagsasakdal.

10. Noong 2002, si Sps. xxx, ang mga magulang ng nasasakdal dito xxx, ay nagsagawa ng Espesyal na
Kapangyarihan ng Abugado na pabor sa nasasakdal dito, ang kopya nito ay minarkahan bilang Annex “3”
dito.

11. Sinagot ng nasasakdal ang hinihinging liham, na may petsang xxx 2011, ng nagsasakdal sa pamamagitan
ng isang liham, na may petsang xxx 2011, ng abogado ng nasasakdal, ang kopya nito ay nakalakip bilang
Annex “4” dito. Hiniling nito ang abogado ng nagsasakdal para sa isang espesyal na kumperensya upang
talakayin ang isang seryosong kompromiso sa extrajudicial, nang walang pag-amin ng pagkakasala sa
bahagi ng nasasakdal. Hindi ito pormal na sinagot ng nagsasakdal.

12. Ang GSIS ay isang (kung hindi “ang”) kailangang-kailangan na partido sa demanda bilang ang rehistradong
may-ari sa simple fee ng subject na ari-arian. Ang mga karapatan sa pagmamay-ari ng nagsasakdal sa
ilalim ng kanyang hindi nabanggit na Deed of Conditional Sale kasama ang GSIS ay inchoate at contingent
lamang. Ang Reklamo ay nagpapakita ng walang Board Resolution mula sa Board of Trustees ng GSIS na
nagbibigay ng kapangyarihan sa nagsasakdal na idemanda ang nasasakdal sa ngalan ng GSIS sa agarang
kaso.

III. COMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM

13. Dahil sa pang-aabuso ng karapatan na ginawa ng nagsasakdal at dahil sa agarang pag-usad at walang
batayan na demanda, napilitan ang nasasakdal na kumuha ng mga serbisyo ng isang abogado upang
ipagtanggol ang kanyang mga karapatan at interes para sa isang propesyonal na bayad na P20,000.00
plus P3,000.00 kada pagharap sa korte;

14. Katulad nito, ang walang batayan na demanda ng nagsasakdal ay nagdulot ng paghihirap at pagdurusa sa
pag-iisip ng nasasakdal at kahihiyan at kahihiyan sa publiko, kung saan ang nasasakdal ay nag-claim ng
moral damages na P100,000.00.

IV. PANALANGIN
KUNG SAAN, ang mga lugar na isinasaalang-alang, ito ay magalang na ipinagdarasal na ang mga
partido ay mabigyan ng sapat na panahon upang maabot ang isang mapayapang kasunduan sa harap ng
xxx City Mediation Center; at na kung sakaling mabigo ito, at pagkatapos ng paglilitis, ang reklamo ay i-
dismiss dahil sa kawalan ng merito at ang sapilitang sagot ng nasasakdal ay pagbigyan, ibig sabihin.
attorney's fees na P20,000.00 plus moral damages na P100,000.00, kasama ang mga gastos sa suit.

Ang nasasakdal ay magalang na nananalangin para sa ganoon at iba pang mga kaluwagan na
maaaring ituring na makatarungan at pantay sa lugar.

-versus-

DINA C. PEREZ,
Respondent,

REJOINDER TO REPLY AFFIDAVIT

I, DINA C. PEREZ, Filipina, of legal age and presently residing at Lot 3,


Fatima II, City of Dasmariñas, after having been sworn on oath in
accordance with law, depose and say:

1. That respondent herein reiterates what she stated in her


“KONTRA SALAYSAY” as being the truth and nothing but the truth on the
transaction that occurred between the former and complainant;

2. That what occurred sometime in September 3, 2009, was a


case of a simple loan were the complainant lend money to respondent
with a side agreement for interest and a collateral that I must be emphasize
that if there was any error in the description of the collateral the same is of
no moment, because respondent nevertheless, acknowledged her
indebtedness. In fact, respondent was pushed against the wall, since
complainant after agreeing to lend the amount of TWO HUNDRED

1
THOUSAND PESOS (P200,000.00) only gave the respondent the amount of
ONE HUNDRED FORTY THOUSAND PESOS (P140,000.00). Stating that the
amount of SIXTY THOUSAND PESOS (P60,000.00) was deducted to cover the
interest for THREE MONTHS (3), complainant justified such deduction as
being legal ;

3. That respondent do not deny her indebtedness, this has been


her stand, the only thing is that the complainant wants to impose an interest
that is shocking, immoral and contrary to public policy. While it may be true
that the parties herein may stipulate on the amount of interest to be paid.
It does not mean that the respondent is not without remedy to contest the
unreasonable interest. Respondent is not reneging on her contractual
obligation but she want to make it clear, that like the complainant who has
the right to collect, she too has the corresponding right to question the
extremely unconscionable interest impose on her ;

4. That contrary to the claim of the complainant, respondent did


not submit a fake title as collateral. Transfer certificate of Title No. 897787,
she used as a collateral intact and is with the Registry of Deeds of the
Province of Cavite. To prove respondent’s good faith, she wrote a letter to
the Registry of Deeds for the Province of Cavite, requesting for a
Certification as to whether or not TCT No. 897787 is existing. This is to belie
the accusation of the complainant that respondent was deliberately faking
a document; Copy of the said letter is here fore attached as Annex “A.”;

5. That for the crime of estafa in general to exist, its basic element
of deceit, must have to be shown or proven. In the case at her, respondent
did not employ deception to complainant to acquire a loan. Complainant
know at the start of the transaction that what was used as a collateral for
the loan transaction was not yet in the name of respondent. Respondent

2
was honest in so admitting it to the complainant. Why would she now claim
that respondent fake a title? It seems that complainant getting too far to
criminally induct respondent for a crime she did not commit. For sure,
contracting a loan is not a criminal offense. No law says that such act is
criminal.;

6. Yes respondent do ignored the calls of complainant


sometimes, but the same is not avoidance to pay the loan, but simply to
prevent the complainant from hurling unsavory language to respondent.
Complainant was to insistent to charge a unconscionable and shocking
interest and respondent was an unwilling victim to fall into this prey.
Respondent was greatly in need and such should not he taken against her,
if she swallowed an interest against her will;

7. That from the facts herein presented, it is immaculately clear


that no probable cause exist to criminally indirect herein respondent for the
crime of estafa. No prima-facie evidence of deceit was proven by the
complainant. Admittedly, respondent may be held civilly liable, not
criminally liable. Respondent is willing to pay, but the payment must be
reasonable and made within the parameters of decency and morality;

8. All told, the case for estafa be should be dismissed for lack of
legal and factual basis.;

Respectfully submitted,

DINA C. PEREZ
Affiant

REJOINDER SA REPLY AFFIDAVIT

Ako si, DINA C. PEREZ, Filipina, nasa tamang edad at kasalukuyang


naninirahan sa Lot 3, Fatima II, Lungsod ng Dasmariñas, pagkatapos
manumpa ng alinsunod sa batas, nagpapaalis at nagsabing:

1. Inulit ng respondent dito ang kanyang sinabi sa kanyang


"KONTRA SALAYSAY" bilang katotohanan at walang iba kundi ang
katotohanan sa transaksyon na naganap sa pagitan ng una at
nagrereklamo;

2. Na ang nangyari noong Setyembre 3, 2009, ay isang kaso ng


isang simpleng pautang ay ang nagrereklamo ay nagpahiram ng pera sa
respondent na may panig na kasunduan para sa interes at isang collateral
na dapat kong bigyang-diin na kung mayroong anumang pagkakamali sa
paglalarawan ng collateral ang parehong ay walang sandali, dahil

1
sumasagot gayunpaman, kinikilala ang kanyang pagkakautang. Sa
katunayan, ang respondent ay itinulak sa pader, dahil ang nagrereklamo
matapos pumayag na ipahiram ang halagang DALAWANG DAANG
LIBONG PESOS (P200,000.00) ay nagbigay lamang sa respondent ng
halagang ONE HUNDRED FORTY LIBONG PESOS (P140,000.00). Isinasaad na
ang halagang SIXTY THOUSAND PESOS (P60,000.00) ay ibinawas upang
masakop ang interes sa loob ng TATLONG BUWAN (3), ang nagrereklamo
ay nagbigay-katwiran sa naturang pagbawas bilang legal;

3. Ang respondent na iyon ay hindi itinatanggi ang kanyang


pagkakautang, ito ang kanyang paninindigan, ang tanging bagay ay ang
nagrereklamo ay gustong magpataw ng interes na nakakagulat, imoral at
salungat sa pampublikong patakaran. Bagama't maaaring totoo na ang
mga partido dito ay maaaring magtakda ng halaga ng interes na
babayaran. Hindi ito nangangahulugan na ang sumasagot ay walang
remedyo upang labanan ang hindi makatwirang interes. Hindi tinatalikuran
ng respondent ang kanyang obligasyon sa kontraktwal ngunit nais niyang
linawin, na tulad ng nagrereklamo na may karapatang mangolekta, siya
rin ay may kaukulang karapatan na tanungin ang labis na walang
konsensyang interes na ipinapataw sa kanya;

4. Na taliwas sa claim ng complainant, hindi nagsumite ng


pekeng titulo ang respondent bilang collateral. Transfer certificate ng Title
No. 897787, ginamit niya bilang collateral na buo at kasama sa Registry of
Deeds ng Lalawigan ng Cavite. Upang patunayan ang mabuting loob ng
respondent, sumulat siya sa Registry of Deeds para sa Lalawigan ng Cavite,
na humihiling ng Sertipikasyon kung mayroon o wala ang TCT No. 897787.
Ito ay para pasinungalingan ang akusasyon ng nagrereklamo na sadyang
nagpe-peke ng dokumento ang respondent; Ang kopya ng nasabing
liham ay nakalakip dito bilang Annex "A.";

2
5. Na para umiral ang krimen ng estafa sa pangkalahatan, ang
pangunahing elemento ng panlilinlang, ay kailangang ipakita o
patunayan. Sa kaso sa kanya, ang respondent ay hindi gumamit ng
panlilinlang sa nagrereklamo upang makakuha ng pautang. Alam ng
nagrereklamo sa simula ng transaksyon na ang ginamit bilang collateral
para sa loan transaction ay wala pa sa pangalan ng respondent. Naging
tapat ang respondent kaya inamin ito sa nagrereklamo. Bakit niya ngayon
sasabihin na pekeng titulo ang respondent na iyon? Mukhang napakalayo
na ng nagrereklamo para gawing kriminal ang respondent para sa isang
krimen na hindi niya ginawa. For sure, hindi criminal offense ang
pagkontrata ng loan. Walang batas na nagsasabi na ang ganitong
gawain ay kriminal.;

6. Oo, hindi pinapansin ng respondent ang mga tawag ng


nagrereklamo minsan, ngunit hindi rin ang pag-iwas sa pagbabayad ng
utang, ngunit para lamang pigilan ang nagrereklamo na maghagis ng
hindi magandang salita sa respondent. Ang nagrereklamo ay igiit na
singilin ang isang hindi matapat at nakakagulat na interes at ang
sumasagot ay isang ayaw na biktima na mahulog sa biktimang ito.
Lubhang nangangailangan ang Respondent at hindi siya dapat kunin
laban sa kanya, kung lumunok siya ng interes na labag sa kanyang
kalooban;

7. Na mula sa mga katotohanang ipinakita dito, malinaw na


malinaw na walang posibleng dahilan ang hindi direktang kriminal dito na
sumasagot para sa krimen ng estafa. Walang prima-facie na ebidensya ng
panlilinlang ang napatunayan ng nagrereklamo. Tanggapin, ang
sumasagot ay maaaring managot sa sibil, hindi mananagot sa kriminal.
Ang sumasagot ay handang magbayad, ngunit ang pagbabayad ay

3
dapat na makatwiran at ginawa sa loob ng mga parameter ng pagiging
disente at moralidad;

8. Ang lahat ng sinabi, ang kaso para sa estafa be ay dapat na


i-dismiss dahil sa kawalan ng legal at makatotohanang batayan.;

Pinasa na may
paggalang,

JABBA D. HUTT,
Plaintiff

- versus - Civil Case No.16-100


For Collection of Sum of Money

SPOUSES HAN AND LEIA SOLO,


and THE TRADE FEDERATION, INC.
Defendants.
x-------------------------------------------------x

PRE-TRIAL BRIEF
(FOR THE PLAINTIFF)

Plaintiff JABBA D. HUTT, by counsel, and unto this


Honorable Court, most respectfully states:

I. BRIEF STATEMENT OF THE PLAINTIFF’S POSITION


1. Plaintiff Jabba D. Hutt files an action for breach of contractual
obligations against defendant Han Solo set forth in the
notarized Contract of Loan amounting to FIVE HUNDRED
THOUSAND PESOS (Php 500,000.00) with compensatory
interest at the rate of ten percent (10%).

2. The defendant executed the following as consideration to the


said loan:

a. Promissory note

b. Ten (10) post-dated checks for Five Hundred Fifty


Thousand Pesos (Php 550,000.00) each

c. Chattel mortgage on a plane called the “Millenium


Falcon”, notarized in accordance to law.

d. Stipulation that the venue of any complaint arising


from said contract is Quezon City.

3. There was a Board Resolution which defendant Trade


Federation Incorporation authorizes Defendant Solo as
1|Page
Chief Operating Officer, to execute a mortgage on the plane.
Board Resolution 14, Sec. 4(b) states:

“The Chief Operating Officer may, upon


his discretion, execute a chattel mortgage in his
name, on any property of the Corporation,
whenever feasible, in furtherance of the
corporation’s purposes and objectives.”

4. On 20 December 2015, plaintiff issued a demand letter


demanding him to pay the outstanding debt but the
defendant failed to do so.

5. On 13 January 2016, plaintiff encashed one issued


check by defendant Solo, however, it was denied and
has bounced due to Closed Account.

6. Since the bank account was closed, the remaining nine


(9) checks are also considered bounced for there is no
sufficient fund to finance the same. Thus, on 15
January 2016, another demand letter was sent to
defendant with a notice that all of his checks bounced
for the reason of Closed Account.

7. Plaintiff stands with conviction that defendant Han


Solo has an outstanding debt to the plaintiff.

8. CONTRACT OF LOAN. Plaintiff strongly holds that the


Contract of Loan entered between him and defendant Han
Solo is valid, notarized and not a product of forgery.

9. BOARD RESOLUTION. Plaintiff partially denies the


allegation of defendant Han Solo that the latter did not
present any Board Resolution to the plaintiff. Defendant
Han Solo has been given the right to act as an agent of the
defendant corporation in executing the said Chattel
Mortgage by virtue of the Board Resolution No. 14.

10. CHATTEL MORTGAGE. The Chattel Mortgage entered


between plaintiff and defendant Han Solo is valid and
binding between the parties and defendant Han Solo’s
signature is not forged. The plane called the “Millenium
Falcon” was in actual possession of Solo thus it raises a
disputable presumption of ownership. Hence, the true
owner, defendant TFI, must resort to judicial process for the
recovery of the property.1

1 New Civil Code, Art. 433


2|Page
That the Chattel Mortgage was notarized in accordance to
law, thus entitled to great weight before any proceedings
contesting the same.2 And that it provides as the best
evidence since it is recorded in a public office. In which case,
it is registered at Registry of Deeds. 3

11. VALIDITY OF SECURITIES ISSUED BY THE


DEFENDANT. The averments in paragraphs 5, 6, and 7 of
the complaint are all reflected in the contract of loan and the
promissory note. To even corroborate these evidence, there
is a chattel mortgage executed, and checks issued. That
there is a presumption that Hutt takes ordinary care of his
concerns, and that ordinary course of business has been
followed 4

12. INVESTMENT. Plaintiff did not invest to the defendant


corporation. The loaned amount referred to in the
Complaint was a loan in itself and not an investment.

13. SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT. The Subscription


Agreement is suspicious, and should not be given probative
value.

14. LOST ENVELOPE WHICH INCLUDES CHECKS;


AND IDENTIFICATION CARDS OF DEFENDANT
HAN SOLO. Defendant Han Solo is maliciously accusing
plaintiff of getting and using the checks and identification
cards of defendant spouses for using it to defraud the latter.
These accusations of defendant spouses hold no water.

15. VENUE. Plaintiff rejects the contention of defendant


spouses thatb there is an improper venue. The law provides
that the rule on venue shall not apply, where the parties
have validly agreed in writing before the filing of the action
on the exclusive venue thereof.5

16. MOTION TO DISMISS. The defendant spouses are


estopped to move for the dismissal of the case. Not only did
they answer to the complaint, but they are actually seeking
for a relief before the Court. By filing their ‘ANSWER WITH
COUNTERCLAIM,’ they are in effect, validly waiving to
attack the matter on venue. This is considered an act of
surrendering themselves to the jurisdiction of the Court.

Defendants, however, contends the following:

2 De Jesus v. Court of Appeals, G.R. No. 127857, June 20, 2006, 491 SCRA 325, 334
3 Rules of Court, Rule 130 Sec. 3 (d)
4 Rules of Court, Rule. 131 Sec. 3 (d); (q)
5 Rules of Court, Sec. 4
3|Page
1. That the contract is an investment of the plaintiff to the
Trade Federation Inc.

2. That the signature of defendant Han Solo’s in the promissory


note, Contract of Loan and Chattel Mortgage was forged.

3. There is improper venue as defendant Han Solo is a resident


of Makati City while the plaintiff is a resident of New York,
U.S.A.

4. Defendant Leia Skywalker-Solo contends that she lacks


personal knowledge of the transaction wherein the checks
executed under her personal account were blank checks
which were all lost. And such checks are issued for the
payment of the spouses’ house.

5. Defendant Trade Federation, Inc. contends that the acts of


defendant Solo in executing a chattel mortgage under the
plane called “Millenium Falcon” owned by the defendant
Corporation is an ultra vires act for the reason that they have
no knowledge on the said execution of the said mortgage by
defendant Han Solo.

II. WITNESSES

The Plaintiff will be presenting the following witnesses to prove


the material allegations in the Complaint with Prayer for Preliminary
Attachment, the documents and evidence as stated in the Contract of

the need may arise in this case.

Ang nagsasakdal ay handang pumasok sa isang maayos na kasunduan; Gayundin,
kung naaangkop, handa ang nagsasakdal na isumite ang kaso sa alinman sa mga
alternatibong paraan ng paglutas ng hindi pagkakaunawaan;

KATOTOHANAN NG KASO

1. Ang pinag-uusapang ari-arian ay isang 500,000 square meter na lupa na may Lot
No. 258963 na matatagpuan sa Sitio Kaladkad, Barangay Inarawan, Antipolo
City.

Ang nasabing ari-arian ay inookupahan ng pamilya Targaryen nang mahigit 60


taon bago ang pag-agaw kay Robert Baratheon noong 2005. Ang ari-arian ay
matatagpuan sa mga lugar ng bundok at dati ay walang daan sa mga kalsada kaya
hindi ito nilinang o ginamit;

2. Ang huling kilalang may-ari ng lupang pinag-uusapan na si Aerys Targaryen,


bilang ebidensya ng Orihinal na Sertipiko ng Titulo Blg. 123456 na inisyu pabor
kay Aerys noong Marso 26, 1996;
3. Ang nagsasakdal ay ang nararapat na may-ari ng nasabing ari-arian dahil siya ang
tanging nabubuhay na tagapagmana ni Aerys Targaryen III na kanyang ama;

4. Noong Abril 2002, nagsimula ang pagtatayo ng bagong kalsada ng Department


of Public Works and Highways at natapos noong 2003, sa pamamagitan nito.

5. Noong 2003, sa pamamagitan ng isang mapanlinlang na Deed of Sale, at isang


pekeng kopya ng OCT sa pangalan ng aking ama, nakuha ni Robert Baratheon
ang Transfer Certificate of Title No. 987654 mula sa Land Registration Authority
Rehiyon IV-A;

6. Noong Agosto 2010, namatay ang aking ama sa kanyang cancer at sa kanyang
kalooban ay ipinaubaya sa aking pangalan ang lahat ng kanyang mga ari-arian.
Sa parehong buwan, dumating ako mula sa

Netherlands kung saan ako nagtrabaho bilang isang Engineer, upang ayusin ang
libing ng aking ama at ang mga ari-arian na naiwan ng aking ama. Pumunta ako
sa LRA para ilipat ang OCT sa aking pangalan at doon ko nalaman ang tungkol
sa pang-aagaw kay Robert Baratheon sa nasabing property;

7. Pumunta ang nagsasakdal sa pinag-uusapang ari-arian at nalaman na si Robert


Baratheon ay nagtayo ng isang komersyal na gusali na tinatawag na Red Keep sa
isang bahagi ng nasabing ari-arian at inuupahan ito sa ilang nangungupahan;
8. Pagkatapos ng karagdagang pagtatanong, natuklasan ng nagsasakdal na mayroon
si Robert Baratheon pumanaw noong 2008 at na ang kanyang biyuda, si Cersei Lannister, at anak
na si Tommen Baratheon, ang namamahala sa ari-arian;
9. Ang nagsasakdal na iyon ay pinagkaitan ng kanyang karapatang gamitin,
tangkilikin at ariin ang lugar ng kanyang nararapat na nakuhang ari-arian dahil ito ay labag sa batas
na inookupahan ng mga nasasakdal;

nakaranas ng aktwal na pinsala ng Apat na Daang Pitumpu't Isang Libo
(Php471,000.00) sa mga pagbabayad ng buwis nang hindi man lang nakuha ang
pagmamay-ari ng kanyang ari-arian; natamo ang mga gastos sa paglilitis na
nagkakahalaga ng Isang Daang Libong Piso (Php100,000.00), dahil sa
maliwanag na masamang pananampalataya ng nasasakdal; ang mga nasasakdal
ay dapat ding magbayad ng Tatlong Milyong Piso (Php3,000,00.00) bilang
pabalik na pag-upa o pag-upa sa nakalipas na anim (6) na taon ng kanyang labag
