1. Atty. U was being investigated by the Integrated Bar of the Philippines regarding

8. From February to November 2010, Atty. Calumpang, in fraudulent connivance with
brokers, convinced Corinna to deliver to him advance money for the titling of a
beachfront property in Caramoan. Six (6) months had elapsed and Atty. Calumpang had
made absolutely no progress in the titling of the land. He also could not return the
advance money paid by Corinna because he had converted the money to his personal
use. After almost a decade, and the property could still not be titled in Corinna's name,
she filed an action with the Commission on Bar Discipline (CBD) in January 2021 for
deceit, malpractice, and conduct unbecoming of a member of the Bar. In his defense,
Atty. Calumpang asserted that, since the acts complained of took place more than 10
years ago, the case had already prescribed.
Rule on the defense of Atty. Calumpang.
