1. may right ba yung D na palayasin si C or B sa bahay na tinitirahan nila??

 

YES. Bilang may-ari, may karapatan si D na piliin kung sino ang titira (o hindi dapat tumira) sa lupa niya.

 

2. what if makisama na si B sa ibang lalaki pwede bang mag stay si C sa bahay na yun?

 

Dahil YES ang sagot sa Question Number 1, naturalmente, pwede ring palayasin si C sa bahay na yan.

 

Note that if C is still a minor, she is entitled to support from her father A, to include her needs for shelter, but this cannot be used to justify staying in the house since the house does not belong to A.

 

 

heres the scenario:

A-----husband

B------wife

C------first daughter

D---inlaws

 

 

A and B got separated kasi palagi nanbabae si A, they got a final decision na hiwalay na since si A may family na while si B na involved na din sa ibang lalaki...

yung bahay na tinitirahan ni B and C, ay pag aari ng family ni A since buhay pa yung matanda nde pa nahahati yung mga ari arian....

may right ba yung D na palayasin si C or B sa bahay na tinitirahan nila??(since hindi pa ito titulado dahil buhay pa yung lola ni C)or what if makisama na si B sa ibang lalaki pwede bang mag stay si C sa bahay na yun? or technically si A ang dapat magpalayas kay C since sya yung anak ng may ari....(legitimate daughter si C and legitimate wife si

. Do [sic] the company i am previously connected is [sic] obliged to pay me for the non payment on time of my salary and other benefits?

 

You'd have to first prove that there was a delay, i.e., your monetary claims had already been processed but they intentionally refused to pay it on time, not that they were still processing the paperwork with regards to your claim. Note that only about two months have elapsed since your resignation, which cannot be said to be an unreasonable length of time to process your money claims. In other words, pwedeng may liability kung mapapatunayan mo na may delay on their part, pero mahihirapan ka to prove this. In my opinion, it's not worth the hassle. Just get your money and paint the town red!

 

2. Am I not entitled for the pro-rated 13th month?

 

YES. Clause 6 of the Revised Guidelines on 13th Month Pay provides:

 

 

6. 13th Month Pay of Resigned or Separated Employee.

An employee who has resigned or whose services were terminated at any time before the time for payment of the 13th month pay is entitled to this monetary benefit in proportion to the length of time he worked during the year, reckoned from the time he started working during the calendar year up to the time of his resignation or termination from the service. Thus, if he worked only from January up to September his proportionate 13th month pay should be equivalent of 1/12 his total basic salary he earned during that period.

 

The payment of the 13th month pay may be demanded by the employee upon the cessation of employer-employee relationship. This is consistent with the principle of equity that as the employer can require the employee to clear himself of all liabilities and property accountability, so can the employee demand the payment of all benefits due him upon the termination of the relationship.

 

 

Good day sir/madame,

 

hope someone from this thread could help me with my problem with regards to my previous employer. the effectivity of my resignation was last april 16, 2010, but to date I have not received my compensation and terminal pay. before i left the company I am cleared of my duties and responsibilities as an accounting clerk. I have been connected with that company for 4 years and 7 months.

 

Lately, my previous officemate informed me that they have already prepared my terminal pay, (salary, over time pay and vacation leave credits converted to cash) but no 13th month pay. they said that I am not entitled for even if pro rated.

 

My question is

1. Do the company i am previously connected is obliged to pay me for the non payment on time of my salary and other benefits?

2. Am I not entitled for the pro-rated 13th month?

 

thanks for answering.

i see. thank you very much for the info. can she or the child seek help from an attorney for this or should a case be filed first?

[rocco69]

kung ang mga tiyahin lang ang me gusto, legally, wala silang karapatan na palayasin si C. kaya lang, ikaw na rin ang nagsabi na di mapigilan nung matanda, when push comes to shove (i.e. magmatigas si C na di siya aalis kung hindi yung matanda yung magpapa-alis sa kanya), i would say mapipilit ng mga tiyahin na pumayag yung matanda sa gusto nila.

[rocco69]

kahit ang barangay,pwede mag-issue ng protection order pag may dumulog dun at humingi ng tulong laban sa pananakit sa kanila, pero yugn stalking, sa korte lang ito, kaya mangangailangan sila ng attorney (kasi sa pag-file kailangan atty ang gumawa)

help naman po need ng legal advice regarding sa billing problem namin sa maynilad..

 

here's the scenario:

 

Nag upgrade ng water line ang maynilad sa area namin.. so nirequired lahat ng bahay sa lugar namin na magpalit ng metro at their cost.

 

dati yung metro namin nasa harap ng bahay namin.. pero nung kinabit ng maynilad yung bagong metro nila eh malapit na sa main road since may alley papunta sa bahay namin at siguro para madaling matunton ng maynilad personnel pag nagrereading.

 

sa kaso namin tatlong metro kaming magkakalapit sa isang area.. yung ibang kapitbahay namin.. mga lima hanngang sampung metro ang magkakadikit.

 

simula nung magamit na namin ang bagong metro na kinabit ng maynilad.. ang first bill agad namin is 17,667.90 pesos

 

nag complain agad kami.. but nirequire nila kami magbayad muna ng 2,500 then iimbestigahan nila kung saan may problema. pinagawa rin nila sa amin na imonitor namin ang bawat araw ng current reading ng metro namin.. so araw-araw eh naka note down.

 

nagbayad din ulit kami another 15,000 pesos since baka daw kami putulan pero kung may fault sa part nila eh irerefund naman daw agad.

 

yung resulta ng imbestigasyon eh nagkamali daw ng reading pero wala pa kaming refund na natatangap sa maynilad simula nuon.

 

then yung mga sumunod na bill is naging 19,810.16 pesos. tapos yung sumunod ulit na bill eh 24,217.28 pesos na.

 

yung ibang kapitbahay namin dito ganun din ang nangyari..

 

 

Gusto namin mag sampa ng kaso against MAYNILAD pero anong case po ba ang nauukol sa ganitong problema? medyo nagkakaaway-away na po kasi dito sa bahay namin dahil sa bill na natatangap namin.. STRESSED OUT na kami.

 

sino po ba ang regulatory commission ang nag momonitor sa mga water services like MAYNILAD..

May I know what Provisionary Dismissal mean?

 

What steps to make after the above decision by court?

[rocco69]

i think you mean "provisional dismissal."

 

A "provisional dismissal" is a dismissal of a criminal complaint filed in court which is temporary and conditional. This is allowed under Section 8, Rule 117 of the 2000 Rules of Criminal Procedure.

 

A criminal complaint which has already been filed in court is usually "provisionally dismissed" when the private complainant has failed to appear for several hearings scheduled by the Court. On the assumption that the private complainant is no longer interested in prosecuting the case (given his failure to appear, the Fiscal would most probably be unable to prove the guilt of the accused, as he would have no witnesses to present), the Court dismisses the case provisionally.

 

In a provisional dismissal, the complainant, upon learning of the dismissal, can file a motion to revive the case (of course, upon presentation of good reasons why he did not appear during the previous hearings), within one year (for offenses punishable by imprisonment of at most six years), or within two years (for offenses punishable by imprisonment of more than six years).

 

Since the case may be revived upon motion of the complainant, the dismissal is termed as "provisional" or merely temporary.

 

After the lapse of the one-year, or two-year period, as the case may be, the accused may then file a motion for permanent dismissal of the case.

to all legal po jan, tanong ko lang po, may magiging problema po ba kung PRINCIPAL amount lang ang babayaran sa credit card? ang iko-compute ko lang yung mga purchase lang po at di isasama yung mga surcharge & finance charge na kino-compute nila? salamat po?

 

ano ang magiging problema kung yon lang ang babayaran???

[rocco69]

ano ang magiging problema kung yon lang ang babayaran??? ang magiging problema - hindi mo ma-fu-fully paid yung utang mo. ayun sa kasunduan mo sa credit card company, kapag hindi mo nabayaran ng buo on the due date yung purchases mo, pwede sila magpataw ng interes.

 

tapos, ayun din sa batas, kapag nagbabayad ka, mapupunta muna ito sa interes bago i-cha-charge sa principal. Sabi ng Art. 1253 ng Civil Code:

 

Art. 1253. If the debt produces interest, payment of the principal shall not be deemed to have been made until the interests have been covered.

 

Klarong-klaro, hindi mo pwedeng piliin na bayaran lang muna ang purchases mo, dahil ayon sa batas, interes muna ang binabayaran bago yung principal.

atty. pano ipa-cancel or ipahold ang credit card? sa Bank ang discretion in favor sa kanila, pano naman yung discretion namin card holder? may mga insendente na nadelay yung pera, nadi dumating ng oras yung pera, at sa 4 months na di pagbabayad, lumubo yung interest at principal? pano kaya ang pwedeng sabihin sa bank?
