Hello po ask ko lang po may effect ba sa kaso if sa pretrial nag ask ung judge kung present ung plaintiffs. Tapos instead of standing up, kumaway or i raised my hand lang? Di ba bastos ung ginawa ko to the judge? Or ok lang po nawala sa isip ko kasi. Just want to make a good impression sa judge.

depende sa judge. may judge na ayaw ng kakaway lang, kailangan tatayo. may iba naman OK lang.

 

Kung di ka naman pinagalitan, ayos lang yan.

 

Alalahanin mo rin, araw-araw naghe-hearing si Judge, sa dami di na niya maalala yan after a while kung ganyan ka-simple lang .

[On the assumption that he is an employee, not a corporate officer] Since he is working here, the relationship is governed by Philippine labor law. Plainly, the requirement that he submit a resignation letter directly violates Philippine law on security of tenure.

Alamincnyo po muna tenor nung contract. He might be project based only or purely a contractor.

Hi guys, if ever ba pede ako makahingi ng request or complete list ng title owner sa LRA land registration authority? Kasi ang dameng land grabber sa area namin. Nakaka awa ung mga nabibiktima. If ever makahingi ako ng list tapos hindi nag match sa hawak nilang mga papel nung mga land grabber ipapa tulfo ko sana. Salamat po,

Nakakahingi naman ng copy (usually its on a blue colored form) may minimal fees. Though hinihingi nila purpose why you ask a copy. Usually the land has to pertain sa inyo or related sa case ninyo. Better give them a good reason, sabihin nyo siguro your doing due dilgence.

Ok thanks. Tinanong lang kasi ni judge kay atty kung present plaintiffs. If magsasalita ako i will surely stand up.

Di naman siguro markahan ni judge to remember it?

Muntik kasi malate atty ko kaya nawala sa isip ko.

Personally i just advise my clients to come in formal attire and be respectful when in court. Tama si rocco dahil iba ibang quirks ang judge meron. tao yan may mataray, matalino etc. So adapt accordingly.

If want to do a "CI" on a lawyer, check with the Integrated Bar of the Philippines. See if there are any outstanding cases filed against the lawyer.

 

You are asking a very tough question to answer. A lawyer's reputation varies. Usually, the halls of justice in your city has a local IBP office. You can ask a referral there.

Hi. Ask ko lang if pwede kumuha ng title ng lupa na nakapangalan sayo. Situation: nakita mo yung title na nakapangalan sayo then tinago and ayaw ibigay sayo, pwede ka bang kumuha ng copy mo? Where and how? Ty

 

If you have a xerox copy, or at least the title number, you can go to the registrar of deeds in the city where the land is located and ask for a certified true copy.

 

If you want an official copy, then you have to file a court case for issuance of duplicate copy based on a "lost" owner's copy

Any suggestions where i can find a good lawyer? (FAMILY LAWYER) around quezon city?

what exactly do you need?

[bonito99]

Mga attorneys sa MTC. Meron akong gustong isangguni. Any advice will be highly appreciated. Isa akong OFW, humiwalay sa asawa more than 5 years dahil sa pagwawaldas ng aking asawa sa mga properties namin ng walang pahintulot. Dahil dito, itinigil ko ang aking suporta sa kanya at derekta kong ipinadadala ang aking suporta sa aking mga anak sa kani-kanilang individual bank accounts. Meron kaming tatlong anak, lahat ay nasa legal age na. Ang dalawa ay meron nang kanya kanyang pamilya at ang bunso naman ay nakatapos na rin recently sa pag-aaral at meron na ring trabaho. Sa ngayon ay sa Panganay na anak na lang ako patuloy na nagbibigay ng suporta hindi para kanya kundi sa aking mga apo. Paminsan-minsan ay nagbibigay pa rin ako kay bunso kapag sya ay humingi kahit meron na syang trabaho. Ang isa ko namang anak ay isa ring OFW kaya wala na rin syang suportang natatanggap sa akin. Ang aking asawa ay mahilig mangutang kahit wala syang pambayad. Magaling itong magsinungaling, magdrama at tsismosa. Lahat ng bago nyang nakikilala ay sinisiraan ako at pinalalabas na inaapi sya. Recently, meron sya mga pinagkautangan at ngayon ay kanyang pinagtataguan. Hinanaras nya ang aking anak na panganay para humingi ng pera sa akin. Sinabihan ko ang aking anak na huwag bayaran ang utang nya dahil tiyak na uulitin nya ulit ito. Inireklamo na rin nya ako dati sa OWWA at kinausap ako ng taga-OWWA sa telepono kung saan ay ipinaliwanag ko ang aking panig. So far wala naman silang ginawang action against me. Lately, nagsumbong ang aking anak na inireklamo daw ulit ako ng nanay nila, hindi ko alam kung saan at nagbanta na ipapa-hold daw ako sa airport kapag umuwi ako ng Pinas. Hindi ko pa alam kung ano ang reklamo nya, malamang ay dahil hindi ako nagbibigay ng suporta sa kanya. Plano ko na ring mag-file ng annulment pag-uwi ko para matapos na kalokohan nya. Ang tanong ko ay ito: sakaling totoo ang sumbong ng anak ko, pwede ba akong ma-hold sa airport pagbalik ko sa aking trabaho abroad?. Makakatanggap ba ako ng notice or advice tulad ng ginawa dati ng OWWA? Ano ang pwede kung gawin para malaman kung meron akong hold-order sa immigration para mapaghandaan ko. Maraming salamat sa agarang sagot.

She can not have you held up at the airport. Baseless threat lang yan.

Question lang po:

Good day and thank you for the response, Evilbrain and dictum. Here are the details:

 

(1) The condo unit is under the account of someone who is already based overseas but can still be reached via email.

(2) I bought the property but with there was no deed of sale. I know, this is where my problem started and I acknowledge my lapse even though I was really busy during this time.

(3) I was able to get a signed SPA giving me full rights to the property but it was not notarized. Again, acknowledging another lapse on my end.

(4) The property is already long overdue for turnover from the developer.

 

Given this, what is my best course of action so the property can be turned over under my name?

 

Thanks again for your time.

1. Find out if the condominium unit is covered by a Condominium Certificate of Title, and under whose name it appears. The SPA will (hopefully) be sufficient for this purpose.

2. If it is registered under the name of the person you transacted with, get him to execute a deed of absolute sale. If he has no plans of returning here, you may need to have the deed of sale notarized abroad and certified with the appropriate consulate (yung red ribbon na nilalagay on legal documents executed outside the Philippines), to avoid getting hit with technicalities when you try to register the sale. Once you have the deed of sale, more or less normal procedures in registering the sale and transferring the title to your name will apply.

 

3. If it is registered under the name of the condominium developer, things get slightly more complicated here, as what you can do will largely depend on the contract between the developer and the person you transacted with, as well as the status of that contract - if at all merong kontrata.

Hope this helps, kahit medyo bitin.

Thank you johncarter44. I think it is still under the developer since, I'm receiving multiple registered mails from the developer to process the turnover. I will reconfirm this by getting in touch with the developer. Thanks again for your time.

Since you mentioned that the condo is "long overdue for turnover from the developer", I would assume that the Condominium Certificate of Title is still registered in the name of the developer. I am also assuming that the condo project/building has already been built and is ready for occupancy.

 

The condominium law allows the buyers to transfer their rights to another during so long as no deed of sale between the buyer and the developer has been executed. The documentation is done through a Deed of Transfer of Rights. Usually, the developers would have their own preferred format and/or template of the Deed of Transfer of Rights.

 

I would suggest that you coordinate directly with the developer, inform them of your acquisition of the condo via the deed of sale and inquire on the status of the condo and the buyer's account. It could be that the buyer has unpaid obligations to the developer which is why the condo has not been turnover yet. The most usual unpaid fees would be the registration fees and the real property taxes.

 

Hope this helps.
