MEMORANDUM OF APPEAL
xxx
1
Complainant-appellant is being assisted by the Public
Attorney’s Office in the prosecution of this case. Consequently,
pursuant to Section 6 of Republic Act No. 9406 or the PAO Law,
complainant-appellant is exempt from payment of appeal fee, legal
research fee and other fees incident to the appeal.
PARTIES
This case began on 27 March 2021 when a certain Mr. Edgar Quinton
illegally constructed a concrete commercial structure on a local road
directly at the edge of the complainant’s property located at the
corner of the national road and Santan-2 Street.

his stall is a barangay road and he had permission from Brgy.
Captain Ramel S. Emono.
Rojas politely pleaded with the Emono to take action on the matter
but her pleas remained unheard. Emono merely responded, to wit:
“Hintayin niyo lang bumaba ang DILG para sila na ang mag-bulldoze ng
istruktura ni G. Edgar Quinton.” Two months have passed and still no
action was taken by the barangay. In fact, they allowed another stall
to be constructed on the area, one which belongs to Marilou Q.
Cardenes, the sister of Edgar Quinton.
More than three hearings were conducted that started from May 27,
2021 and lasted up to July 12, 2021. In the end, Emono decided that
the illegal structures of Quinton and Cardenes shall remain where
they are and shall only be removed as the barangay sees fit.

On 20 September 2021, a Barangay Session with the entire
Sangguniang Barangay of San Mariano was conducted with the
presence of Ms. Charisse Ann W. Adriano (MLGOO), EnP. Benito Q.
Ballesteros Jr. It was there decided that the illegal structures of
Quinton and Cardenes must be removed and that there were no
objections to said removal.
4
ADMINISTRATIVELY LIABLE FOR GROSS NEGLECT OF DUTY
AND GRAVE MISCONDUCT;
5
construction of food stall be cleared in compliance with DILG
Memorandum Circular No. 2019-121.
It is also worth noting that respondent Emono himself also has illegal
structures constructed along the local road of San Mariano which, to
appellant’s mind, is the very reason why he could not admonish the
other illegal occupants of the local roads of San Mariano. Instead of
setting an example, appellee himself is the instigator of unlawful acts
in his own jurisdiction.
RELIEF
Other reliefs, just and equitable under the premises are likewise
prayed for.
