Around how much will it cost me for the court filinf fee if i want to file an inheritance claim in court. The estate has a bir zonal valuation of 100m. There are 8 children.

[Roubaix]

Filing fees for an inheritance claim will be around 3-4% of the value of the land. So, you are looking at at least 3M filing fees.

 

But if you are just filing for letters of administration, it might be cheaper. Plus, as an administration, you might be able to ask for a monthly stipend. It is best to go to a clerk of court in a hall of justice and just inquire about the fees.

Wow! That is really alot. I don't think i could afford that. Finally, my share for the estate would only be about 12.5m. On filing fee alone, i'll be spending so much already. Dagdagan pa ng attorney's fee and other charges. May matira pa kaya sa akin?

 

I'm really thinking it over. Kaya lang baka not worth the expenses.

True, but inquire into filing for letters of administration. I did one many years ago and its not 3% of the value of estate. Go to a clerk of court in a Hall of Justice near you

I don’t know if this is the right thread to ask this. I’m planning to go to law school next year. I’ll take the PhilSAT in April 2019 and enroll by June. Which should I look for, a JD program or a Bachelor of Laws?

[hi_hello]

goop pm guys. ask lang po sana ako ng advice.

 

nag awol po ako sa last call center na hindi ko natapos ung training bond. ngaun nag rerequest ako sakanila nung 2316 pero ayaw nila ako i clear hangang d ko daw nababayaran ung balance ko sa training bond na P8000. pwede po ba i hold ng previous employer ko ung 2316 form ko dahil ayaw ko bayaran ung training bond?

[Roubaix]

Doesn't matter. If JD, you need to present a thesis in front of 3 lawyers that will grill you for an hour.

Technically no.

 

But how long did you work for that company? Maybe the amount is too small to be a significant 2316.

JD or LLB doesn't really make a difference except for the thesis part.

 

What you may want to consider looking into is if the school has an accredited clinical legal education program. That can help you get an exemption from the Community Legal Aid Service Rule once you start your practice.

 

Good luck sa Philsat and sa law school!

I live in a townhouse. My mom can park her car immediately in front of our house and space on the right side of the car serves as driveway for other people behind us to pass or park by the wall which is still in front of our house so the space on the left side of the car serves as driveway. Recently she decide to park by the wall to give her more space in front of the front door. However, we have one neighbor who is an inggitera. I guess they are not happy with the set up because after we got home today, I reviewed the CCTV and saw that when they got home they intentionally drive a little quick in reverse and brake just in time which less than a foot of my mom's car. Kinda like taunting us. I kept the video just in case something happen to let authorities see that there was prior intention.

 

Should they hit our car whether by accident or not, What can we do especially if they refuse to pay? What's the procedure should they hit my mom's car? We are not in speaking terms for so many years already. But the other neighbor have no problem with the setup.

 

Any info will be greatly appreciated.

Hypothetically:

 

Hitting your car unintentionally falls under reckless imprudence resulting in damage to property, while hitting your car intentionally falls under malicious mischief.

 

Note that even if your CCTV footage shows a prior act of coming too close to your mom's car, that in and of itself does not prove intent. If anything, it strengthens the idea that your neighbor is reckless.

 

To be on the side of caution, first step would be to file a barangay blotter, para may record of the incident close to when it happens. Next is to ask them calmly and politely to settle the repairs. Kung may insurance kayong dalawa, hayaan na ninyo na yung insurance companies ninyo ang mag-away-away.

 

Kung ayaw talaga, next step would be barangay mediation. You would file a formal complaint before the lupon, and they will schedule mediation between you and your neighbor.

 

If that fails, and if the damage is substantial but less than P300k, then you can file a small claims case before the Municipal/Metropolitan Trial Courts. Di kailangan ng abugado doon. Pupunta ka lang sa Office of the Clerk of Court ng MTCs, may forms sila doon at listahan ng documents na kailangan. Kumpletuhin mo yung documents w/ proper marking (Annex "A." "B," etc., nakalag din usually sa form kung aling yung mga annexes), fill out the form, tapos submit everything to the OCC along with a minimal filing fee. You'll be informed later where your case was raffled and when your hearing date will be.

 

Small claims hearings themselves are closer to mediation than to actual court hearings. The judge will listen to your side then ask the other party to explain their side, tapos the judge will get both of you to agree to a settlement.

 

There is the option of filing a criminal complaint also, but that will take longer, and may not be necessary kung ang habol niyo lang ay yung pampaayos ng hypothetical damage sa sasakyan ng mom mo.

Just as long as there is no money, then it can't be gambling.

 

But then there is always the "standby" law - vagrancy.
