mag seek lang po ng legal advise...

 

nagpapaupa ako ng pwesto and meron kasi akong isang tenant na gusto ko sanang mapaalis na due to delinquency in paying the rent, excessive heat emanating from the place(bakery kasi un business) at nasira na un place due to their neglect to maintain the place well.

 

Ano po ba ang dapat na maging step ko para mapaalis ko sila. nagkaron kami ng contract but nag expire na sya last Dec 2011. We have not made a new contract as of this time. Meron bang prescribed sa law stating kung ilang araw,weeks,months ang notice ko for them to vacate the premise?

 

Hope you can advise me on what steps I need to do so that I will not bypass their rights and at the same time serve my purpose to have them vacate my place.

[curian]

nag demand na po ba kayo na umalis na sila? pag hindi pa po, according to rule 70 of the rules of court, you have to demand that they vacate the premises in which case they have 15 days in case of land or 5 days in case of buildings.

if they did not comply, try to reach a compromise or settlement on the barangay level. If no compromise/settlement can be reached, you can then file for unlawful detainer in the proper municipal trial court.

 

Tama ba mga bossing?

According to article 3 of the Family Code

the formal requisites of a formal marriage are

1. Authority of the solemnizing officer

2. A VALID marriage license except in some cases

3. A marriage ceremony which takes place before the solemnizing officer and their personal declaration that they take each other as husband and wife in the presence of not less than two witnesses of legal age.

 

from your statement, they were married in a church. lets assume that the marriage was solemnized by a priest. In that case, the authority of the solemnizing officer is valid. And lets also assume that 2 or more witnesses attended, requisite number 3 would then be complied with.

 

the question would lie on requisite 2. whether they have a valid marriage license. because they only had the marriage license after the celebration, then it is presumed that there was no valid marriage license during the wedding ceremony. BUT it may be valid provided that they fall under those marriages where a license is not required. those are:

 

1. Marriage in Articulo Mortis (point of death of one or both parties) as provided for in article 27 of the Family Code (FC)

2. The residence of either party is so located that no means of transportation would enable them to appear before the local civil registrar (Art 28 of the FC)

3. The marriage is among muslims or other ethnic cultural community where, according to their customs, no marriage license is necessary.

4. The couple have been living together as husband and wife for at least five years without any legal impediment to marry each other. In which case they have to make an affidavit before any person authorized to administer oaths (like a notary public). The solemnizing officer (in this case, the presumed priest) should then state under oath that he has ascertained that there are no impediments for the couple to marry each other and they are qualified to get married. But this should be BEFORE the marriage ceremony.

 

If your friends does not fall under any of the exceptions provided, then the marriage is void.

Lastly, the marriage license will be valid for 120 days after the date of issuance.

i'd like to seek your legal advice

 

i signed an overseas employment contract good for one year, 2 weeks ago.

 

now, i am having a change of heart.

can i still back out without any legal implications?

 

my contract starts next month

 

it also says in my contract that either party can terminate the contract not less than one month written notice without explanation,

my question is, since the contract signing is so fast and the start of the contract is next month na, is there any possibility to use this clause in the contract?

 

i'll be penalized one month salary if i resign within my tenure of contract, magbabayad ba ko? kasi technically, di naman ako magreresign kung di pa ko nagstart magwork?tama ba?

 

at sinabi rin na: this employment is subject to laws of COUNTRY XXX

so, mahahabol ba nila ako dito sa pinas? meron kasi sila counterpart na company dito e.

 

e paano pala kung nagbago ang tenure of contract? may original date kasi sa contract, pero binago na kasi sa last working day ko dito pinas.

di naman ako nabigyan ng kopya, they asked me to sign lang the page, and they said its for visa processing.

 

thanks for all your help.

if you can refer me to any lawyer na expert sa mga ganitong bagay,

i'd be glad to talk to him/her.

What curian advised is correct. Since the contract has already expired there is no need to send a demand letter but you should send one anyway so that your tenant cannot use that as an excuse. As much as possible, resolve the matter via compromise agreement or a complaint with the barangay. If you have to file an ejectment complaint with the court, it may take from 6 months to over a year to evict your tenant because of legal requirements and procedures.

 

If your contract states that you can re-take possession of your property without filing a court action then one thing you can do is turn off the electricity at the circuit breaker/fusebox. If only you and not your tenant has access to it then there's no way they can turn the power back on. It will force them to settle with you.

Hmmm, mukhang kakainin ako ng buhay pag nag backread ako ng 567 pages kaya tatanong ko nalang dito. Di ko rin kasi sure kung may nagtanong na dati nito.

 

Bagong salta lang po ako, labas ng college. At soon, magwowork na rin ako. Pero balak ko agad mag-invest at mag-setup ng maliliit na business. Unang option is foodcart. Ano bang kelangang papeles para makapagoperate maliban sa DTI-SEC na automatic hinihingi ng mga admin sa mall? Tsaka since franchise naman, kelangan ko pa bang kumuha ng permit sa FDA (dating BFAD?) o bahala na yung mother company ng franchise?

good day sir.

 

i'd like to know if DOLE entertains anonymous complaints of an employee against his or her employer regarding poor working conditions like working longer than 8 hours without pay, not having sss and other mandatory benefits, no vacation leave and no sick leave, and no 1 hour lunch breaks? especially if the employee is still working in the company. Also does BIR entertain anonymous complains or reports?

 

thanks.

[tourista]

Good day po.

 

Meron po ba Attorney dito that i can consult about

the filling of a petition for correction of entry under rule 108 of the Rules of court,

involving a foreign divorce decree on a filipino spouse ?

 

Maraming salamat po.

Isn't it that even if the written contract has expired but you allowed the tenant to remain on your property, the lease is deemed renewed on a monthly basis if rental is paid on a monthly basis, or weekly if rent is paid on a weekly basis, etc.? It is always better to issue a demand letter to forestall any legal excuse the tenant may have to continue staying on the property. Make sure that there is proof that the tenant received copy of the said demand letter by getting a written acknowledgment of receipt or by sending the letter by registered mail.

Sir Rocco maraming salamat po pala.

 

Long overdue na yung pag thank you ko sa mga reply nyo hehe.

That's true. To be specific, for a renewal to be implied, the lessee must have occupied the property for at least 15 days with the acquiescence/permission/consent of the lessor and neither party has given contrary notice.

 

If the contract has expired but the lessee refuses to vacate, the lessor may immediately (within 15 days from expiration) file a barangay complaint/ejectment case without having to send a demand letter first. Having said that, it is still a good idea, as you said, to send a demand letter to avoid legal complications.

 

I've filed ejectment cases before and it's amazing (and also irritating) how creative people can be when it comes to finding holes and defects in your complaint! :P

Nagbukas kami ng siomai franchise last year pero sa isang commercial bldg sa loob ng village, hinde sa mall. Kumuha kami ng barangay permit, DTI registration, mayor's/business permit, at BIR registration. Di na kami pinakuha ng FDA permit.

Your problem is proving the existence of the loan. I suggest that you meet your batchmate to discuss payment of the loan, preferrably at a public place like a restaurant. You should bring a friend, or friends, to the meeting to personally witness the discussion. (If you think your batchmate will not discuss the loan in front of a 3rd person, have your friend/s sit at a nearby table where s/he can hear the discussion). In case you have to file a complaint for sum of money, you can present your friend/s as a witness since s/he personally witnessed the discussion and can testify on what was discussed.

 

Depending on where you live, this may be filed with the Small Claims Court.

 

I do hope you can collect without having to file a court complaint.
