Hi bosses. Updated on this.

 

So I checked SEC i-View for the records of the corporation. I found it although it was already had a status "Revoked." It was registered in1990. Then I was informed by one of my aunt that the name of the funeral parlor was changed around 2007-2009, but reverted back to it's former name around 2011-2013. So I also checked old receipts and found that the when it changed to a different name around 2007-2009, my uncle was the "proprietor."

 

What should I do then? Thanks

SEC i-View would not really be the same as getting an official certification that the company's registration has been revoked.And the next question that arises is: Why was its registration revoked?

But...

On the assumption that the company's revocation was due to its failure to submit annual documentary requirements , and on the further assumption that your uncle became the owner afterwards, you'll have to buy the business from your uncle (if he is dead already, his heirs have to execute an extrajudicial settlement of estate w/ sale, wherein they sell the business [to include the fixtures and equipment used in and about the business; the stock of goods, wares, merchandise, provisions and materials of the business; and the goodwill and right to use the name of the business] to you.

Note that the seller has to make an inventory of the stock of goods, wares, merchandise, or material in bulk to be purchased; as well as notify all creditors of the business of the price, terms and conditions of the sale at least 10 days before delivery to the buyer (see Act 3952, Bulk Sales Law), otherwise the sale is void and you could even be held liable for violation of Act 3952.

Good day.

 

I am looking for legal advice regarding Buyers Remorse (on Services NOT Goods)

 

 

Party A contracted Party B to run a Social Media and Online Visibility Campaign for 60 days. Total contract price was 36,000. Party B was paid an initial payment of Php19,000. The agreement was that 36,000 will be paid in full, but Party B decided to allow a staggered payment plan to help out Party A. Two weeks after, Party B reneged on the agreement, wanting to cancel the entire campaign and asking for a refund. The reason behind the decision was that they decided they no longer needed/wanted it. Party A is asking for a refund. What does the law say about Buyers Remorse on Services.

 

Thank you.

Two weeks after, Party B reneged on the agreement?

I am assuming from the tenor of the question that it was actually Party A who reneged on the agreement, given that it is Party B who would render the services, and it appears that it was Party A who needed/wanted the campaign at first.

Once a contract is perfected, a party to the contract cannot unilaterally withdraw, without a valid reason, from the same (unless there is a clause in the contract allowing him to do so).

Accordingly, so long as Party B is ready and willing to perform the services and there is no clause allowing for unilateral withdrawal, Party A may not withdraw from the same on the reason that they no longer need/want it.

However, the law does not also like unjust enrichment, which would happen if Party B gets to keep the P19k without performing any services for it.

Accordingly, the equitable solution would be to allow Party A to withdraw from the contract, but he has to pay Party B the expenses which the latter has already incurred by reason of the contract PLUS DAMAGES suffered by Party B due to the unilateral withdrawal. The expenses already incurred plus damages MAY OR MAY NOT EQUAL 19k (I'd say it probably is less than 19k). So, I suggest that Party B inform party A that he will return the 19k less the expenses incurred and damages (pwede isoli niya 10k na lang, depende sa kanya).

Note that, legally speaking, Party B can insist on the contract (it appearing that unilateral withdrawal is not allowed). The problem would be that Party A might not release the remaining 17k, so walang incentive to perform without full payment first. Note also that they cannot insist on a refund so long as Party B insists on the performance of the contract. Basically, magkakasamaan lang ng loob si Party A at B, until one of them files a case (which, given the small amount involved, is a remote possibility).

- I have a question -

 

we have a lot around 3000 sq.m in bulacan, after a survey, we found out that an adjacent house has encroached into our lot. problem is its a 2 storey concrete house, now, the owner decided to get a 3rd party surveyor to check it again. and same result. it has been a long time since, now the owner of the house passed away already. and now we would like to utilize the lot (for rental) and construction will be ongoing soon. what legal action can we take and any other alternative thru this problem? thanks in advance.

gaano kalaki ang encroachment? kung maliit lang, pabayaran nyo na lang yung portion na nakuha. this could be cheaper than fighting it out in court. Kausapin si neighbor about this.

Kung malaki, depende kung alam nung neighbor na nag-encroach siya o hindi. Kung alam niya, bad faith siya, pwede ipademolish yung portion na nag-encroach (siguradong hablaan muna ito, at may structure na eh). Pwede rin naman na ibenta ninyo yung lupa sa neighbor.

kung di niya alam, you can opt to pay for the value of the encroaching structure, or sell the land encroached. (kung ayaw niyang umalis sa encroaching structure kahit babayaran ninyo, hablaan din ito).

Hello po sa mga lawyers dito... I am in a very tight situation that i think its too complicated and needing a legal consultant.

 

I am married with 3kids. We've been together for 12yrs na.

At first hindi na po talaga malalim yung pagmamahal ko sa kanya.

But i tried to work it out since nabuntis ako.

For the past 12yrs ilang beses ko ng binalak humiwalay, pero di natutuloy kasi everytime nabubuntis ako.

Wala akong work, so i needed him for financial assistance.

Then tinanggap ko na lang na siguro this is my destiny.

Pinilit ko na lang sarili ko na maging masaya with my kids.

From 2011 to 2016, he worked at Singapore to provide for us.

May mga away kami pero naoovercome naman.

I was given a big break last year and 2015, i succeeded in my business..

Last year October pinauwi ko na sya since kaya naman na.

But before ko sya pinauwi nagheart to heart talk kami.

Knowing his flaws, i tried to talk it out.

Sabi ko, you have to support me in everything I do.

You have to say yes to all my decisions, because arguments are the last thing i want to have when i am tired.

You have to improve your hygiene, as i am so disgusted everytime.

Dahil dalawa lang ang mangyayari sa marriage natin pag umuwi ka.

Either we separate or mabond pa yung marriage natin.

Of course he was part of my success too. He is the father of my kids.

And i wanted to at least have that happy family thing.

So yun umuwi na sya.

The 1st month i tolerated his katamaran kasi iniisip ko need din nya magrelax.

November, December kinakaya ko pa yung nakababad sya sa facebook, late na pumapasok ng kwarto.

Same room kami with our kids so nabwibwisit ako pag late na sya pumasok sa kwarto at nadadamay mga bata.

I am sleeping at 10pm and wake up at 4am. I am tired all day kasi because of too much work.

January, i drifted away, we don't share bed anymore, we're no longer intimate.

Wala syang babae, wala rin akong lalake.

The only thing he does is facebook dito facebook dun.

Ang kinakabwisit ko mahilig sya sa mga exotic animals pero di ko na pinayagan mag alaga matagal na since nakakatakot naman talaga.

Tapos sa facebook admin pa sya ng mga groups at kung meron mga tinatanong akala mo kung sinong VETERINARIAN ang p#tang %na.

Since i manage to buy multiple cars. We have Revo, Navara, Everest, Patrol.

Ang gago nagpamember sa lahat ng car clubs. Akala mo kung sinong mekaniko na nakasagot sa lahat ng post.

Eh ang totoo yung Revo lang naman ang gamit nya. Since brothers ko nagamit ng Everest at Navara tapos ako sa Patrol.

King ina di nga marunong magdrive at minamasahe nya manibela at pag long drives at mga zigzag eh ako talaga driver.

Pasikat ang hayup hayun kala mo nga kung sinong magaling na driver nakasagot lagi sa enquiry ng mga car clubs di naman admin.

So hayun araw araw na akong naiistress. Minsan tumatakas ako to breath some air.

Like i go out of town. Tang ina eto na ang malalang sitwasyon since may GPS tracker yung Patrol ko.

Wala na ginawa yung hayup kundi itrack ako ng itrack sa cellphone sa sasakyan.

Magugulat ka na lang kaconvoy mo na ang hayup.

Grabe na yung stress ko. I am running a small company with a total of 32 employees.

Sa totoo lang, supposedly yung uwi nya is to help me manage our business pero wala nganga.

Since wala sya pakinabang sa management he could have at least bumawi na lang to serve and pamper me.

Pero wala madalas nakaglue sa facebook ang hayup.

As an entrepreneur ayaw na ayaw kong may nasasayang na oras sa walang pakinabang na bagay.

So fast forward sa sweet naming kwento..

He can no longer make me happy. Puro stress at disgust araw araw nararamdaman ko sa kanya.

March pa lang this year hinihiwalayan ko na but he continues to ignore my demands.

Kasi the house were living is ako bumili. Makapal pa gusto ako ang aalis.

Kasi ayaw daw nyang mahiwalay sa mga bata. Dinadahilan nya pag umalis sya baka di na nya makita mga bata.

Eh willing naman ako sa shared custody at payag naman akong magchild support pati na financial support so he can stand on his own again.

Basta maghiwalay na lang kami kasi ayaw ko na talaga.

Pero matigas, sobra na away namin araw araw minumura ko na araw araw.

HIndi na ako naniniwalang mahal nya ako, mas naniniwala na akong pera na ang habol nya at

ayaw nyang iba ang makinabang since ang mentality nya eh sya namuhunan sa success ko.

So eto inabot pa nga kami ng June. Eto na last straw, i went to Bulacan para mag abot tulong sa namassacre yung buong family

since same town kami galing. I was with my bro and my cousin.

Tang ina nanjan na naman yung hayup at trinack na naman ako.

Binuntutan kami hanggang Fairview at dahil nagpagas kami sumunod hayun pinapagalitan na ako.

Bakit daw ako di sumasagot eh hindi naman talaga kami speaking terms kumbaga dinededma ko na sya matagal na.

Palagi na lang ako napapahiya sa kakabuntot nya sa mga kameeting ko kahit makita pa nyang babae or pamilya ko.

susunod sunod pa rin na parang aso.

Nagiging demonyo na ako kakaisip pano idispatsa.

Gusto ko na ipatira talaga or lasunin. Sobrang luhod ko na rin sa Dyos na sana alisin na sya sa buhay ko sa kahit anong paraan.

Hindi ko na nakikilala sarili ko pag sya usapan. Nagiging demonyo na talaga ako.

Hindi ko alam kung hanggang kelan ko makokontrol sarili ko, impulsive and aggressive akong tao kaya

natatakot din ako na balang araw di ko na makontrol sarili ko at mapatay ko sya or mapatay nya ako.

So eto na pinalayas ko sya yesterday, with matching throwing out his things and handing out money.

Sabi ko lumayas sya, kung di sya aalis pati yung 3 kids namin i will throw out their things at bitbitin na nya.

Dahil suko na talaga ako, na feeling ko kaya ko ng mawala kahit yung mga anak ko mawala lang din sya sa buhay ko.

Siguro sasabihin nyo how can a mother do that? Pero yes, he turned me into an evil that even me i can no longer control my hatred.

Desidido na ako. Do or die na to.

As part of our hiwalayan agreement, i promised child support and financial support para makabangon sya ulit.

Bibigyan ko sya ng half million and he can get anything he wants basta makatarungan.

At gusto kong nakapirma sya ng agreement pero ayaw nya.

Ang gusto lang eh i'll hand it to him like nothing.

I have several properties na napurchase like townhouse, condo and lots.

Natatakot akong maghabol sya. Dahil seriously ginapang ko talaga tong negosyo ko with the help of my brothers sa managing.

I gave him 3 days ultimatum to completely leave the house.

He can bring the kids and the yayas if he wants to.

Sabi ko sa 3 days na yun he can come at day time and fix his things but at night kailangan umalis sya kasi di ako makatulog.

Napaparanoid ako na baka dahil madepress since may pagkapsycho patayin nya ako.

Kaya i am well guarded by my staff and bros.

 

MY QUESTION IS:

1. Kelan ako pwede magfile ng annulment?

 

2. Mafifile ko ba annulment case kahit di sya pumirma?

 

3. May chance of winning ba ako kung ayaw nya makicooperate?

 

4. Pag hinand out ko yung pera and ibang financial support, kelan ko pwedeng itigil?

 

5. Ano po masusuggest nyo sa situation ko? Please lang yung hiwalay po. Not to fix it.

 

I know you guys think my case is still premature.

Pero hindi po. Naiinis ako na walang nakakaintindi how i feel inside that i am slowly dying of sadness and depression.

hindi lang ngayon, pero noon pa man binabalewala ko lang.

Lumalala lang ngayon. Triny ko na din sya kinausap. I begged and cried na palayain na nya ako.

Pero para syang bingi. Ayaw ko ng magcompromise kami dahil paulit ulit lang.

Compromise then kinabukasan gagawin nya ulit.

Pagod na pagod na ako. Ayaw ko na. Parang gusto ko na lang lumayo pero maraming tao ang umaasa sakin.

1. Kelan ako pwede magfile ng annulment?

Anytime you want to. Talk to a lawyer.

2. Mafifile ko ba annulment case kahit di sya pumirma?

Yes, Hindi kailangan ang consent ng kabila para magfile ng ganyang uri ng kaso.

Kung kailangan ang consent ng kabilang party para magfile, wala halos makakapagfile ng ganyang kaso, which cannot be.

3. May chance of winning ba ako kung ayaw nya makicooperate?

Yes, ang pagpapanalo ng kaso ay hindi nakadepende sa cooperation (or lack of it) ng kabilang partido. Ito ay nakadepende sa quality at quantity ng ebidensya mo.

4. Pag hinand out ko yung pera and ibang financial support, kelan ko pwedeng itigil?

Kung kelan mo gusto. Kung kailangan niya ng pera, maghabla siya. Hangga't walang court order, di ka pwersadong magbigay ng suporta. Pero, for humanitarian consideration sa mga anak mo, hindi ka dapat tumigil sa suporta sa anak mo (anak mo yun eh).

5. Ano po masusuggest nyo sa situation ko? Please lang yung hiwalay po. Not to fix it.

Kung desidido ka na, see a lawyer.

Good luck!

Hi! Tanong ko lang po kung pasok po ba sa vawc physical violence yung pagkinaladkad at pilit na pinapasakay sa kotse ng asawa mo pero ikaw eh ayaw mo sumakay. Ganyan po nangyari sa akin, karga ko pa po anak ko kahapon at nag iintay na makasakay ng uber, sya po pilit nya kami hinaharanggan na makalapit sa uber, at hinahawakan nya po ako ng mahigpit kung saan nasasaktan na po ako at pilit nya po kaming gusto isakay doon sa kotse nya. Natrauma na po ako sa kanya dahil pag andun kami ng anak ko sa kotse nya, wala syang tigil sa pagsasalita sa akin na may lalake daw po ako. Kahit anung assurance ko sa kanya na wala akong lalake, hindi sya naniniwala. Natatakot na po ako sa kanya baka kung anung gawin nya sa amin ng anak ko. Kung kayat nung oras na yun, minabuti ko na sumakay nalang ng uber kesa magpahatid pa sa kanya. Inaalala ko ang trauma na maidudulot ng ginagawa nyang pakikipag away sa akin sa two yrs old kong anak. Ano po pwede kong gawin kasi nagpunta po ako dati sa pao at sinabihan ako na di daw nila ako matutulungan dahil wala naman daw physical abuse at psychological abuse! Ngaun sa bagong kaganapan kahapon naisip ko na baka matanggap na ng Pao ang incident na yun. Kaya lang po wala po akong physical na evidence ng pasa or sugat maliban po sa pananakit ng mga braso ko at likod sa ginawa nyang paghatak at kaladkad sa amin ng anak ko doon sa parking area ng st peter chapel kung saan madami po nakakita sa ginawa nya sa amin, kahit security guard hiningian ko ng tulong pero di nila ako tinulungan.. Ppwede po ba ako magpamedical bukas at gamitin ko yun ma ebidensya sa pao or sa pulis? Salamat po.

Ppwede po ba ako magpamedical bukas at gamitin ko yun ma ebidensya sa pao or sa pulis? Oo

 

The stockholders would be the siblings of my mom and/or their widows. Can we do the transferring without notifying the other stockholders? And can we do it if the corporation's necessary permits and/or licenses were already expired.

 

And if it's not a corporation anymore, what would be the process?

transfer of the shares would either be by sale or donation. However, if the shareholder is already dead, the widow (and children) have to settle the estate of the deceased first.

Can we do the transferring without notifying the other stockholders?

yes, but the transfers have to be registered in the books of the company.

And if it's not a corporation anymore, what would be the process?

find out first what happened. without knowing what happened to the corporation, we do not know who now owns the assets of the corporation, as well as who has the authority to dispose of these assets.

Hey guys. Need help, again. So here's the story.

 

My family has a business, a funeral parlor that is around for 62 years na. It changed hands from my lolo, then to one of my uncles, then to another uncle. Business was doing great before. Then when the second uncle handled the business, it slowly declined. It is now to the point that it's barely operating. The business had an expired business license and haven't been renewed for a couple of years now. Here's what I know about the business.

 

1. Started by my lolo from my mother's side 62 years ago

2. My mom has 5 brothers and a sister, 3 of whom are dead, including my mom.

3. Sometime between 2000-2010, they converted it into a corporation.

4. Last registered owner is my uncle, 5th child.

 

So our plan is for me to register the funeral home as mine, sole proprietor. I have the support of the youngest sister of my mom, and the widow of my 3rd uncle. Will we able to register this as our business or are there any legal loop holes we can exploit, or can be exploited by my other uncle?

 

Thanks!

if it is a corporation, look into the corporate structure first (who are the stockholders and the members of the Board etc).

before you can claim the business, you have to own stock in the corporation. which will require stockholder/s transferring shares to you. Hence, the need to know who are the stockholders.

hello to all the good lawyers here,

 

can i just ask advise here

 

the story goes like this, i parked in a particular parking lot in metro manila, he parking lot has the following services, parking, valet parking and carwash services, so i parked there for 3 hours when i came back, my car was struck by another car, the other car was driven by one of the parking lot's personnel.

 

i have made my claims for the damages but they would not cooperate,

 

what cases can i file i court? yun medyo mabigat for them to have 2nd thoughts na mangago na lng ng tao,

 

i am not rich, i worked hard for the car (kahit luma na) i worked hard for it not for me but for my family

 

so guys plese help or send me a PM if you have some advise.

 

 

TIA

Truth is, civil case for damages ang pwede mo i-file against the car park. Yung mabigat ay criminal case, AGAINST THE DRIVER! Na mas malamang sa hindi, wala ding pera. More, ang makukulong, yung driver, di yung car park.

Perwisyo pa sa iyo ang magfile ng case at pupunta-punta ka pa sa court. Yan ang inaasahan ng car park kaya nakikipagmatigasan sa iyo.

Kung di aabot sa P200T, sa small claims court lang naman yan, mabilis din (relatively speaking), at di mo na kailangan ng lawyer.

Baka pwede ka rin magcomplain sa Consumer Desk ng DTI (not sure kung covered ang parking services, pero malay mo).

We started renting a condo last oct. I am paying for all the bills. I want to keep my son. Prior to our son she already has 2children. Her 2nd child is wit her father.

Since the condo is just being rented, she has no right to it. And since you are not married to each other, as I said earlier, you can always separate from one another at any time. Accordingly, you can always end the relationship at any time, to include preventing her from living in the place where you live.

As to your son, if he is less than seven years old, the law prefers to give custody to the mother UNLESS there is a compelling reason to award custody to the father. Thus, if your child is below seven, custody will probably be awarded to the mother, rather than to you.

However, since you say that you suspect her of taking illegal drugs, if you can produce definite proof that she is taking illegal drugs, that could be THE COMPELLING REASON for the court to award custody to you, as the child's welfare and well-being will not be served if his custody is awarded to a drug dependent.

More, if you forcibly take your son away from the mother, you open yourself to charges of violating the Violence Against Women and Children Act (RA9262), as this could be made to appear as psychological violence, With definite proof that the mother is taking drugs, you can make it appear that you are taking the child away for the latter's safety.

I have a live in partner who i think is now taking illegal drugs and we have a son. I want to kick her out of my place but she is saying that she has the right to our. What can i do about this?

since you are not married to each other, you can always separate from each other.

the problem is your son. Do you intend to kick her out but retain custody of your son?

also, where are you living? if it is your property, when was this acquired? how was this acquired? This needs to be answeredin order to determine whether she has a right to the same.

Hi! Ask ko lang kasi pinadala namin thru LBC yung copy ng barangay protection order dun sa tinitirhan ng husband ko. Pero ayaw nya tanggapin yung letter, pangalawang balik na ng lbc dun pero walang may gustong mag receive ng letter. In short ayaw nilang tanggapin yung letter. Ano po ang dapat kong gawin pag ganun? Salamat po

Kung may pera kayo, gastusan nyo na ang dalawang tao sa barangay , BPSO o kagawad maganda, para personal na ibigay sa kanila ang sulat (pamasahe at konting pakain lang naman siguro ang kailangan). Instruksyunan nyo na kung ayaw tanggapin ng tao run, iwanan ang kopya sa bahay (dapat sa taong may-edad na taga-run, mas maganda kung aalamin nila kung sino yun) tapos ilagay sa "Receiving Copy" na dala nila na "Refused to Receive". parang nabigyan na rin sila ng kopya nun.

Kung ayaw niyo ng ganun, ipadala nyo by registered mail, with return card. medyo matagal nga lang yun. at baka hindi rin tanggapin.

 

Thank you very much sir for the info. My aunt and the respondent faced the lupon this morning. The respondent accused my aunt of being greedy because she claimed my aunt wants her out of the house just because she already fix the house. But in reality, my aunt wants her out of the house because 3 to 4 months before the contract expires, she was paying the rent in installment. Sometimes the respondent would promised to pay next week but always fail to keep her promise. My aunt had to be the one calling her for the rental payment. So my aunt decided to let her go after the contract expires since she's already 78 and doesn't want to constantly remind the lessee each time the rent is due. After the lupon ask about their contract and to point out to the respondent that there's a clause where it is clearly written that she cannot fix anything inside the house without permission. At the point, the respondent got furious and stood up and accuses the lupon to be siding with my aunt and then she told the lupon that she wants my aunt to sue and doesn't want to see my aunt again in the baranggay hall then she walks out. The members of the lupon were telling her to stay and to respect them since the proceedings is not yet over but it fell on deaf ear. They were surprised because they said they have never encountered someone as arrogant as the respondent during a hearing. They all felt that the respondent is a professional scammer because she's looking forward to be sued so that she can live for free while the case is on going. The lupon will make a final summon next week before issuing a certificate for my aunt to sue. Frankly, since my aunt has the money, I would prefer that she sue the bastard for treating her disrespectfully and for taking advantage of her kindness but more importantly it's not her fault. However, the members of the lupon are encouraging her to just sacrifice the 6 months rent and let the respondent live until July 30 because that's the condition of the respondent - to live until July 30 para sulitin gastos niya. Because according to the lupon, the respondent might do something bad to her house plus if the litigation last for years then it would be lost income. Of course I don't agree but then it's my aunt property and money so she has to decide.

 

So I have one more question. Is it true that while the case is on going, the respondent don't have to pay rent and will be living for free?

1. So I have one more question. Is it true that while the case is on going, the respondent don't have to pay rent and will be living for free?

Kung kinasuhan nga naman ako ng may-ari, di na ako magbabayad. Alalahanin mo, hanggang walang court order, di mo pwedeng pwersahang palayasin sa bahay yung umuupa (unless may clause sa Lease Contract na you can take possession of the place without permission from the lessee).

But the Decision of the Court will order them to pay the rentals they have not paid, PLUS pay for the period they used the house after the lease expires and until they actually leave the premises. So, in theory, mababawi mo lahat ng hindi nila nabayaran (in theory, kasi minsan, yung umuupa, wala namang perang pambayad, kahit anong piga mo, kung walang pera talaga, wala kang makukuha, kahit pa utos na ng korte).Pero, kung may pera yan, mababawi mo yun. But ultimately, utang lang nila sa tiyahin mo yun.

Kaya nga maganda na nag-issue sila ng cheke na tumalbog. Walang nakukulong sa utang; sa tumalbog na cheke MERON. Patalbugin na lahat ng cheke na inissue nila. Tapos, ihabla sa cheke tumalbog, ISANG CHEKE, ISANG KASO! para talagang makukulong (sabi kasi ng Supreme Court, pag unang conviction ng BP 22, dapat fine lang. Ibig sabihin, sa pangalawang sentensya, di na fine, kundi preso na talaga! Tapos, kung maraming cheke, eh di siguradong walang parole, at repeat offender siya, hindi nagbabago at nagrereporma!

Hi! I already filed a Baranggay protection order and now planning to go to PAO for a TPO or PPO. Ask ko lang kung may laban po ba ang kaso ko na VAWC - psychological abuse, emotional and verbal abuse para mag grant ng PPO? Tsaka pag di ko po ba sinagot mga txt at tawag ng husband ko ay pwede nya akong kasuhan dahil sabi nya tinatago ko daw po or pinagkakait ko daw po na makausap nya ang two year old naming anak? Makakasuhan po ba ako sa ganun? At ngaung may BPO na, pwede na po ba akong magpalit ng mga numbers ko? Salamat po ng marami..

1. may laban po ba ang kaso ko na VAWC - psychological abuse, emotional and verbal abuse para mag grant ng PPO? Oo, in fact, malakas kaso mo.

2. pag di ko po ba sinagot mga txt at tawag ng husband ko ay pwede nya akong kasuhan dahil sabi nya tinatago ko daw po or pinagkakait ko daw po na makausap nya ang two year old naming anak? ikaw ang may karapatan sa anak mo, hangga't wala siyang court order (na malabong mangyari), wala siyang karapatan mag-insist sa custody ng anak ninyo (at pilitin kang sumagot sa tawag o text niya)

3. Makakasuhan po ba ako sa ganun? Oo, kahit sino pwede magkaso. Pwede ka ngang magkaso laban sa kapatid mo sa hindi nila pagbibigay ng regalo sa iyo nung kaarawan mo. Ang tanong, may pag-asa ba itong manalo? Ang sagot, malabo.

4. At ngaung may BPO na, pwede na po ba akong magpalit ng mga numbers ko? kahit wala kang BPO,pwede kang magpalit ng number. karapatan ng isang tao ang gumamit at magpalit ng numero. kahit nga walang dahilan, pwede ka magpalit ng numero eh.

Hello,

 

My wife is due on August and I just learned that my company doesn't provide paternity leave. Is there any legal action I could take to avail this benefit? Thanks.

Pano kung papalabasin sa pamamagitan ng pirmahan ng kontrata na "magpapalit sila pareho ng relihiyon" ngayon, magiging valid ba ung sharia law? kahit kasal nila matagal na panahon ago na?

Pwede. Note however PSA Admin. Order No. 1, Series of 2005:

Rule 12. Registration of Conversion to Islam

Registration of a person's conversion to Islam is prima facie proof that he professes the Islamic faith and thus becomes a Muslim. It shall be governed by the following rules:

1. A person who desires to embrace Islamic faith shall accomplish the Certificate of Conversion to Islam by providing the following information: his or her full name, sex, civil status, date of birth and age, place of birth, occupation, residence, citizenship, parents and their respective religions. The certificate shall be attested to by at least two witnesses who must be Muslim Filipinos. In case the convert is a minor, the consent of the parents, or the guardian is necessary.

2. In addition, the Convert shall submit a certification that he/she has undergone an orientation on basic principles and practices of Islam from any accredited Muslim organization by the Office on Muslim Affairs or from any recognized and competent Ustadz or Ulama. The Circuit Registrar shall require submission of such certification.

3. Four (4) copies of the Certificate of Conversion to Islam shall be submitted for registration within thirty (30) days after the date of its execution by the convert or his authorized representative to theShari'a Circuit Court where conversion occurred. In the city or municipality where there is no Shari'a Circuit Court, conversion to Islam shall be reported by the same person to the LCRO of the place of conversion who shall forward the same to the Shari'a Circuit Court where the convert is domiciled under the procedures of out-of-town reporting.

   In case the convert is not domiciled within the territorial jurisdiction of the five (5) Shari'a judicial districts, the registration shall be at the nearest Shari'a Circuit Court. In such case, the convert, in addition to the requirements under Rule 12 (1) and (2), certify under oath that he has not registered such conversion before any Circuit Registrar. The same shall be annexed to the Certificate of Conversion and simultaneously filed therewith.

4. The four (4) copies of the Certificate of Conversion shall be distributed, after registration, by the Circuit Registrar as follows: first copy to the convert; second copy to the CRG; third copy to the District Registrar, and the fourth copy for his file.

Lumalabas, hindi pwedeng sa pirmahan lang ng kontrata palalabasin na magpapalit sila ng relihiyon, kailangang magparehistro sila sa PSA (dating NSO), at nangangailangan ito ng certificate of conversion at seminar/orientation ukol sa basic principles and practices of Islam.

Hiwalay pa rito yung pagpapa-annul sa kasal nila, na ayun sa PD1083 ay kailangang dumaan sa Shariah Court.

Kung gugustuhin naman ng lalaki na wag na lang magdiborsyo at maraming asawa na lang:

The principle in Islam is that monogamy is the general rule and polygamy is allowed only to meet urgent needs. Only with the permission of the court can a Muslim be permitted to have a second wife subject to certain requirements. This is because having plurality of wives is merely tolerated, not encouraged, under certain circumstances (Muslim Law on Personal Status in the Philippines by Amer M. Bara-acal and Abdulmajid J. Astir, 1998 First Edition, Pages 64-65). Arbitration is necessary. Any Muslim husband desiring to contract subsequent marriages, before so doing, shall notify the Sharia Circuit Court of the place where his family resides. The clerk of court shall serve a copy thereof to the wife or wives. Should any of them objects [sic]; an Agama Arbitration Council shall be constituted. If said council fails to secure the wifes consent to the proposed marriage, the Court shall, subject to Article 27, decide whether on [sic] not to sustain her objection (Art. 162, Muslim Personal Laws of the Philippines).

Lumalabas, lahat din na iyan ay dadaan sa Shariah Court.

Lumalabas, ang conversion to Islam ay hindi shortcut sa pagpapawalang-bisa sa kasal.

hingi sana po ang advice kung anu dapat kong gawin, almost one month na hindi ko pa nakukuha ang final settlement ko sa shipping company ko.. mali mali ang computation nila, wala silang binigay phone number ng accounting, the only way na makokobtact sila is thru email, then nagmessage ako wala namang reply for the past 2 weeks.. saan po ako pwede humingi ng tulong? salamat sa sasagot

National Labor Relations Commission (NLRC) Banawe, Public Assistance Desk (PPSTA Bldg. near cor. Banawe-Quezon Ave)

Salamat for encouraging me to fight. Natatakot po ako kasi lumaban sa korte dahil madami po sya sinasabi na ako daw po ang kakasuhan nya dahil sinabi ko sa kanya na di na nya makikita ang anak namin kahit kelan. Pagkatapos po sabi din nya hindi ko daw sinasagot mga tawag nya at mga txt, tapos nagmumura pa daw ako.. Lahat naman yun totoo.. Pero nagawa ko yun dahil sa ginawa nya sa akin noong May 10. Tapos sabi pa nya hindi daw totoo na sinaktan nya ako.. Sa halip ako daw po nanakit sa kanya! Sinampal at pinaghahampas ko daw po sya! Anung laban ko dun? Wala akong ebidensya.. Sya daw po ay meron.. Pasensya na po kau. Wala po kasi ako makausap tungkol sa sitwasyon ko na makakapag payo in a legal ways.. Salamat pong muli..

1. Sya daw po ay meron

ano naman ang ebidensya niya? pareho lang kayo, basically salita mo laban sa salita niya. alin ang mas kapanipaniwala sa inyong dalawa, at naturalmente, pati magulang mo testigo mo rin.

the earlier na ikaw ay lumapit sa kinauukulan, mas maganda at talaga namang may ginawa na siyang krimen! maganda pa rito, kung maghabla man siya, lalabas na ito ay gawa-gawa na lamang para may pangkontra siya sa inihabla mo sa kanya.

Good luck!

Thank you Atty. Very clear explanation.

There is still no Contract of Sale, Deed of Sale of any sort. Just the acknowledgement receipt.

A contract, to exist, doesn't need to be in writing.

So long as the parties already agree on the rendition of service or the giving of something by one party to the other, there is already a contract!

Even without a written Contract of Sale, or Deed of Sale, a contract of sale may already be perfected (you don't execute a written contract when you get on a jeep, do you, and yet there exists a Contract of Carriage between you and the jeepney driver, you undertake to pay the fare, the driver undertakes to take you safely to your destination).

And that is the reason why it is hard to say whether he can still back out or not. It's difficult to say whether there is already a complete agreement between the parties without knowing whatever it was they really intended to do.

Hello po sir. I would like to ask for an advice. There's this family who are renting the house of my aunt. They were paying their rent on time before but before their contract expires, they seem to be having problems with the payment. After the lease contract expires, they refuse to leave the property and started paying the monthly rental on installment basis. At first, they were able to complete the whole month's rental payment but as time goes by, they weren't able to complete the payment. Right now, they haven't paid for four months already. She kept promising to pay but to no avail. I don't know what kind of upbringing the wife has but she refused to leave and she's challenging my aunt to sue them because she claims the litigation will last five years. Perhaps, they could live in the house for free during those 5 years. At the same time, the wife was giving the reason that she would like to get her money's worth because she claims she spent P100K to change the tiles of the toilets, to remodel the dirty kitchen and etc. She did all those "repairs" WITHOUT any permission from my aunt. Whenever my aunt would ask her to leave she would always use the excuse that she spent P100K already. Few weeks before meeting at the Baranggay she increased the amount to P150k.

 

My aunt went to a lawyer but she wasn't able to get further details hence I'm asking for advice here. The lawyer advise my aunt to go to the Baranggay first. I and my mom accompanied my aunt and the respondent is in her usual arrogant behavior. This time she claims that she spent P200k. The Baranggay mediator wasn't able to solve the problem because both parties are having shouting match. The respondent wants to stay until the end of July to get her money's worth but she's not going to pay the remaining 4 month's rent as well as June and July. So a total of 6 months rent. My aunt refuse so she challenge my aunt to sue instead.

 

After they left, the mediator said there will be another meeting or what he calls a "Lupon". The mediator said that the respondent is like a "palengkera" and told my aunt that the respondent will not win in court because it's her fault that she fixed many things inside the house without asking for permission. The aunt also deposited some of her checks but it bounced. The mediator also saw the receipts that the respondent allegedly spent and he was surprised that there was a P30k for a water closet or inidoro. Also, he said those receipts are not official receipt from a store and all of the receipts are of the same size and color which is too small to be a receipt.

 

My question is, does it really take 5 years for this kind of case whether if my aunt will sue for estafa or not? Can the lawyer of respondent kept asking for delay during the trial and is there a limit for such delaying tactic? According to the Baranggay, if the court approves for the house to be sheriff, the belongings will not be taken out of the house because the respondent still owes money, is that true? But if the Respondent knows that they will be sheriff they can move out without anybody knowing right? What other legal things can we do with regards to this kind of case?

 

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

1. My question is, does it really take 5 years for this kind of case whether if my aunt will sue for estafa or not?

The case to get rid of them would be ejectment. While this is supposed to be summary (mabilis), the truth is medyo matagal din ang kasuhan, mga 1 - 2 years bago madesisyunan, tapos pwede pa iapela (although kung manalo kayo sa Metropolitan/Municipal Trial Court, kailangan nilang maghulog buwan buwan nung upa, otherwise layas na sila sa bahay kahit may apela sila).

Ang kagandahan dito, nag-issue sila ng cheke na tumalbog. Ito ay violation ng Batas Pambansa 22, at ito ay criminal case na may kulong. Yung ejectment, walang kulong, kaya pwede silang magtapang-tapangan. Pero, yung BP22 may kulong, kaya pwedeng-pwede niyong gamitin pang-leverage sa kanila, para sila lumayas, at kung matigas talaga ang ulo, para ipakulong yung nag-issue ng cheke.

2.Can the lawyer of respondent kept asking for delay during the trial and is there a limit for such delaying tactic?

Pwede. May ganyang taktika din sa paghahabla, pero dahil may abugado din naman kayo, alam din ng abugado ninyo paano ito kontrahin. At hindi naman pupwedeng i-delay nila forever ang kaso, di rin naman pumapayag ang huwes sa delay ng walang dahilan.

3. According to the Barangay, if the court approves for the house to be sheriff, the belongings will not be taken out of the house because the respondent still owes money, is that true?

To be sheriff (you probably mean, if you win, then the decision ejecting them from the premises will be implemented by the sheriff). If there is a money judgment, the sheriff usually just takes the money from their bank accounts. If they do not have money in banks, or the same is insufficient, the sheriff can take their property and sell it at public auction to satisfy the judgment.

4. But if the Respondent knows that they will be sheriff they can move out without anybody knowing right? What other legal things can we do with regards to this kind of case?

Yes, they can move out. But, as I said, the sheriff can go against their bank accounts (the sheriff writes letters to all the banks asking them that if the losers have accounts with that bank, for the bank to hold the contents of their accounts). You can also file a BP 22 case, as I said earlier. Since your aunt already has a lawyer, in all probability, he already told her all this.

Hi!

 

Gusto ko lang po sana humingi ng tulong kung ano ang mga karapatan ko bilang babae at ina..

 

Mula po ng akoy nabuntis, ako po ay nakatira na sa aking mga magulang. Wala po akong trabaho at sya po ay paminsan minsan meron at minsan po ay walang trabaho. Nung nanganak ako, half ng bill po ay nabayaran ng mga kapatid ko. Yung half po ay promissory note at nakahiram po kami sa kaibigan nya na hanggang ngaun po ay hindi pa po namin nababayaran worth 50K. Ngaun po two years old na anak namin, dito parin po kami nakatira sa parents ko at sya po ay sa caloocan. Dumadalaw po sya sa amin pag may sweldo or pera po sya. Ngaun medyo nahihirapan po ako pakisamahan sya dahil sa sobrang seloso po nya, bawat txt nya sa akin puro bintang at hinala, nakakapagod na po sagutin, kahit madaling araw po ay di ako tinitigilan sa mga ganung txt nya. Pag lalabas po ako ng bahay para bumili ng needs ng baby ko, gusto po nya ittxt sya kung ano mga ginagawa ko at kung nasaan na ako. Kahit pagsakay ko ng shuttle ay gusto nya ittxt ko pa. At last week naman ay umalis ako nag apply ng trabaho ay sinamahan pa nya ako kahit hindi naman sya nag apply doon sa company. Nasasakal po ako sa pagiging seloso nya. Hindi po kami magkasama sa isang bunong dahil narin po sa pinansyal, wala po syang stable job. Pag ayaw nya po sa pinapasukan nya ay magreresign ito kahit wala pang kapalit, kayat lagi po ako may utang sa mga kapatid ko pang gastos sa anak namin. Noong May 10 po ay sumugod sya sa bahay ng parents ko at madami sya tinanong sa father ko kung umalis daw ba ako ng bahay. Pagkatapos po ay nagkasagutan kaming dalawa, nahampas ko sya ng face towel sa likod sa inis ko at humarap sya sa akin at sinugod ako. Napaatras ako dahil sa takot, mukha syang papatay noon, agad nyang hinwakan kamay ko at ginapos ako. Sa takot ko ay napasigaw ako at ang pamangkin ko na 15 yrs old ay natakot at tinawagan ang sister ko sa office kayat nagpatawag ng security guard ang sister ko. Nanginginig ako sa takot noon, dati po noong mag bf-gf plang po kami ay nananakit na po sya, tinatadyakan at kinakaladkad po nya ako sa kwarto. Pero dko akalain na mauulit ito noon May 10 kaya Nagmakaaw kami sa kanya na umalis na pero pinilit nya magstay. Pero sa pulit ulit naming pakiusap ay napaalis din namin sya. Sa takot ko at galit sa kanya, tnxt ko sya na di na nya kami makikita ng anak nya. Ang ginawa nya ay nagpunta sya ng abogado at sinabi sa akin na mananalo sila sa kaso at kukunin nila sa kin ang anak ko! Dko po alam kung ano ang ikakaso nila sa akin, dko po alam kung ano ang karapatan ko. Nakiusap po ako sa kanya na wag ituloy ang kaso. At nitong mga nakalipas na araw, pag hindi nya gusto ang sagot ko sa mga tanong nya ay ginagamit nyang panakot sa akin yung pag file ng case.. Ano po ang dapat kong gawin? Lagi po may takot sa isip at kalooban ko, ayaw ko po mawalay sa akin ang anak ko. Tulungan nyo po ako. Salamat

1. Ang ginawa nya ay nagpunta sya ng abogado at sinabi sa akin na mananalo sila sa kaso at kukunin nila sa kin ang anak ko!

Ikaw naman, oo, nagpapapaniwala agad!

Ayun sa Family Code, Art. 213:

In case of separation of the parents, parental authority shall be exercised by the parent designated by the Court. The Court shall take into account all relevant considerations, especially the choice of the child over seven years of age, unless the parent chosen is unfit.

No child under seven years of age shall be separated from the mother, unless the court finds compelling reasons to order otherwise.

Kitang-kita, pag ang edad ng anak ay mas mababa sa pito, ito ay dapat nasa nanay. Hindi dahilan ang pagkawala ng trabaho ng ina para ihiwalay ang anak sa nany nito. Ang mga halimbawa ng "compelling reason" ay kung ang nanay ay adik, bayolente, may ketong. Kung ikaw naman ay ordinaryong nanay na nag-aalaga sa anak, as between nanay at tatay, nanay ang pipiliin ng hukuman!

Mas mabigat pa rito, parang hindi kayo kasal. Kung hindi kayo kasal, ang inyong anak ay illegitimate, ayon na rin Art. 176 ng Family Code:

Art. 176. Illegitimate children shall use the surname and shall be under the parental authority of their mother,

Ibig sabihin nito, pag ang anak ay illegitimate, ito ay nasa ilalim ng kapangyarihan (at kustodiya) ng ina, hindi ito maaaring ibigay sa ama!

2. Ano po ang dapat kong gawin? Lagi po may takot sa isip at kalooban ko, ayaw ko po mawalay sa akin ang anak ko.

Ang ginagawa ng partner mo ay VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN, specifically ito ay psychological violence (see Section 3(a)[C] at [D], Republic Act 9262). Siya dapat ang matakot at siya ang kayang-kaya mong kasuhan. At mabigat ang kaparusahan nito

Yung kanyang pananakit ay isa ring form ng violence against women!

Pumunta ka na agad sa Women's Desk ng Barangay ninyo para makahingi ng Barangay Protection Order (para di na siya makalapit sa inyo), at para makasuhan na rin agad siya. O di-kaya'y sa Women's Desk sa pinakamalapit na police station, may tutulong na agad sa iyo dun, at ito ang mandato nila.

Good luck!

Another question. Can the seller backout anytime? Deposit of 1 Million has been given and the owners signed an acknowledgement receipt.

If the contract of sale has been perfected, the seller can no longer back out without becoming liable for damages. he may even be forced to consummate the sale. the question then would be: has the sale been perfected? Unfortunately, without any other fact aside from the deposit of P1M and the signing of an acknowledgment receipt, it is a bit difficult to say whether the sale has been perfected or not, as the circumstances surrounding the transaction, and the understanding between the parties, have to be considered.

Good Day

 

Does the landlord need to state a reason for non-renewal of lease to the tenant?

Contract is 1 Yr lease agreement and is up for renewal by aug.10 2017

Nope, when a contract of lease expires, and there is no clause allowing automatic renewal, or renewal at the option of the tenant, the landlord CANNOT BE FORCED TO ENTER INTO A NEW CONTRACT OF LEASE. Whatever his reason, and even without a reason at all.

Hi po. Not sure if this is the correct thread to post. I can't find any other thread for this eh.

 

Anyway, I'm planning to pursue a law degree and I wanted to go any of the Big 3 law schools (UP, Ateneo, and San Beda). My question is how much is the estimated tuition and misc fees for these 3 schools? I'm not well off. I'll be saving up for it. I'll go next year. Thanks!

UP would be the cheapest, it being a State University, baka sa P25T per sem, tatakbo na. Ang San Beda, dinig ko tumatakbo ng P60T, while Ateneo probably runs to P80 or 90T.

But first things first!

To take up Law, the Legal Education Board now requires you to take, and pass, the Philippine Law School Admission Test. See https://www.cem-inc.org.ph/philsat/

Then, the Big 3 doesn't just allow anyone to enrol, YOU ALSO HAVE TO PASS THEIR ENTRANCE EXAMS AS SLOTS ARE LIMITED. For UP, about 3,000 take the Law Aptitude Exam and only about 250 are accepted (your undergrad grades are considered; as well as the interview results). Mahirap pumasok sa UP, sobrang competitive.

Beda and Ateneo also have exams, which you have to pass (have heard apocryphal reports that you can get in if you are in with the priests at Beda or with the administrators of Ateneo, not really sure about the veracity of this reports, apocryphal nga eh.).

As an alternative, you can also apply with PUP College of Law. Being a State University, it also has very low rates, similar to UP. Marami ding nag-aapply , at may exam at interview din, pero di ganung kalupit ang competition to get in as with UP. Its passing rate is quite respectable.

MLQU is also relatively affordable, at around 45T. Contrast this with the P60T of other private law schools like San Sebastian, UST, etc. Its location is also convenient, just get off at MRT GMA Kamuning Station and you're there.

The cheapest would be Universidad de Manila College of Law. If you are a Manila resident, you get 50% off the rates. Given that it is a university run by the City of Manila, the rates, even without the discount is already very low. The location is central (pun intended: you just get off LRT Central Station). The downside is that it's a new law school, really not having established a reputation at this point.

Hope this helps.

Hi Everyone.

 

Ask ko lang. May friend kasi ako na ia-annul ng asawa nya through Sharia law? Pwede bang gamitin yun kahit walang Muslim sa kanilang dalawa at hindi under Muslim ceremony yung union nila? Pwede bang mag imbento ng documents needed para maging applicable si Sharia law? May provision ba si Sharia law na makakalusot ang lalaki sa pagbibigay ng sustento? Uso na ba ngayon na i-suggest itong law na ito to fast track the annulment process?

 

Thanks in advance

1. May friend kasi ako na ia-annul ng asawa nya through Sharia law. Pwede bang gamitin yun kahit walang Muslim sa kanilang dalawa at hindi under Muslim ceremony yung union nila?

Marriage is a contract. Ayun nga sa Article 1 ng Family Code:

Art. 1. Marriage is a special CONTRACT of permanent union between a man and a woman entered into in accordance with law for the establishment of conjugal and family life. It is the foundation of the family and an inviolable social institution whose nature, consequences, and incidents are governed by law and not subject to stipulation, except that marriage settlements may fix the property relations during the marriage within the limits provided by this Code.

Hindi ito maaaring ipawalang-bisa sa pamamagitan ng pagpapalit ng relihiyon, kung walang pag-sang-ayon ng kabilang partido. HIGIT PA DITO, dahil ang kasal nila ay hindi sa ilalim ng Muslim law, sila ay covered ng Family Code, hindi ng Sharia law. At sa ilalim ng Family Code, WALANG DIVORCE!

In short, hindi pwedeng i-shortcut niya ang processo ng annulment, walang bisa ang kanyang pagkuha ng annulment sa ilalim ng Shariah law.

2. Pwede bang mag imbento ng documents needed para maging applicable si Sharia law?

Pwede, walang pumipigil sa isang tao na pumunta sa University of Recto para kumuha ng anumang dokumento na kailangan niya.

Ang tamang tanong ay: may bisa ba ang mga dokumentong ito? Ang sagot, WALA! Imbento nga lang eh. Pwede pa siyang makasuhan ng falsification of documents pag nagkahulihan.

3. May provision ba si Sharia law na makakalusot ang lalaki sa pagbibigay ng sustento?

Hindi ko alam, di ko linya ang sharia law eh. Pero sa aking palagay, may exemption din sa pagbibigay ng sustento. Yun nga lang, kung ano yun, di ko alam.

4. Uso na ba ngayon na i-suggest itong law na ito to fast track the annulment process?

Ayun sa sagot sa no. 1, walang bisa ang "annulment" na makukuha mo sa ganitong paraan. Kung ito ay walang bisa, isu-suggest mo ba ang paraan na ito? Palagay ko, HINDI!

Good Day po. Tanong ko lang gaano po ba tumatagal ang hearing kung magpa file ako ng Adultery case sa asawa ko. Kasal po kami. Nagtrabaho ako sa abroad tapos may nakilala sya at sumama sya sa lalaki. Nagkaroon sila ng 2 anak. Alam ng lalaki na meron asawa yung kinabit nya. Tapos ng nagkaanak yung asawa ko ko pinirmahan ng lalaki yung Birth Cerificate ng mga naging anak nila. Meron ako kopya ng NSO Birth Certificate ng mga anak nila. Kung ipapakulong ko sila gaano po tumatagal yung kaso bago magkaroon ng sagot ang husgado?

matagal tagal din ang criminal case. Safe bet, 1 to 2 years.
