hi everyone, i have some questions...

 

i lived in a townhouse and because of limited parking space, i had to park my car in a friend's unit just 2 units from ours. they vacated their unit already but don't have any plans of selling it kaya they let me park there. the problem is, yung mga nakatira sa tabing unit nila ay mga inggitero't inggitera parang di matanggap na nakikipark ako dun. anyway, i noticed that everytime my car is newly washed, nagkakaroon ito ng dumi the following day. like splash of dirty water, sometimes they bathe their dog infront of my car so when the dog wags its body tumatalsik mga tubig and sometimes may mga rat droppings pa.

 

i plan to set up a hidden camera so i can be sure na sila gumagawa nun. kapag napatunayan ko na sila ang nagdudumi sa car ko, what should i do? report to barangay or sa police station? what kind of charges can be filed against them at ano parusa?

 

p.s. talking to them won't yield anything good coz lalo lang nila sasadyain.

 

any info will be highly appreaciated.

 

I would suppose that you also have a homeowner's association there that is in charge of the security guards. Why not ask them for help as well?

Once you get the evidence, you will have to go first to the Barangay if you and the culprit live in the same city. If you and the culprit live in different cities, you can go straight to the police who will assist you in drafting your complaint or you can hire a lawyer and go straight to the Prosecutor's Office.

 

The case here if for "Unjust Vexation". The imposable penalty is imprisonment of 1 to 30 days and/or a fine not exceeding Php 200.00.

 

However, if your car was damaged (e.g. scratched) in any way, you can file a case for "Malicious Mischief". You will have to get a repair estimate. The imposable penalty is imprisonment of up to 6 months depending on the extent of damage to your car.

 

Hope this helps.

 

the penalty is not that harsh pala. thanks.

we don't have any homeowner's association especially there are only 6 units here. i'll try to grab some evidence to see if my assumption is correct then decide what to do next. thanks.

nevertheless,

if you get a conviction, meron na syang record sa NBI.

that is enough payback.

kahit masampa lang kaso sa korte, yung i-require sya mag-attend parati, enough payback na yun.

There are incidences of police planting marijuana leaves inside a car during a checkpoint; what are the things (legal rights and provisions of law) that we must be aware of? Will possession of Marijuana land you in detention? Assuming it's bailable,what if it occurs on a Friday night?

How does this change if it's a drug - ecstasy,shabu Etc...

Good day sa mga MTC lawyers,

 

I have a problem and hope I can get some advice from here. My wife and I is not in good term and we are not communicating to each other for almost 4 years now. I am planning to file a legal separation or divorce or whatever that will kept me separate from her. My problem now is my wife was involve in a legal battle and being the husband, the complainant included me in their legal battle. I am na OFW and currently working abroad and I have so far no involvement in their trouble except that I am the husband. What are the action I have to take to depend myself and how can I depend myself considering I am abroad?

 

Thanks

First, you must know what civil action was filed against your wife? Second, what will be your ground for the filing of an annulment case? You must divulge the entire story so that you may be properly advised for the action(s) to be taken against your wife and subsequently for the proper defense of your case.

The case falls under the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act (RA 9165). During a checkpoint, the police are only authorized to make a visual search. They cannot ask you to open your trunk or ask you to step down unless they have reason to suspect you are carrying contraband. Hence, make sure nothing suspicious in your car is in plain sight. If you are asked to open your trunk, ask them for the reason for the search. Make sure that you personally witness the inspection of your trunk.

 

Possession of marijuana will land you in detention. Possession of dangerous drugs in punishable under Section 11 of RA 9165. Possession is usually bailable (around Php 200,000.00). However, if the quantity of drugs found is large (i.e. 500 grams for marijuana), the crime is non-bailable. The police will bring you to the Station and later refer you to a fiscal for inquest proceedings. The inquest fiscal may file a case against you or refer the case for further investigation (and order your release). Call your lawyer. Make him accompany you during the inquest. Question immediately your arrest even before the inquest prosecutor. If you are arrested on a Friday evening, you will be inquested that same night or during the weekend. However, you will probably spend the entire weekend in jail for the Chief Inquest Prosecutor will be available on Monday.

 

If it is ecstacy or shabu, the quantity is much lower (around 10 grams) for the case to be non-bailable.

 

If the policeman is found to have planted evidence, this is punishable by death (Sec. 29, RA 9165). But, this will be difficult to prove. Policemen are presumed to have performed their duty without any malice. It will be difficult to rebut this.

because you bought the car, a deed of sale should be available, signed by both parties and notarized. otherwise, baka pwedeng puntahan ka na lang nung former owner and bigla na lang kunin yung car. hehehehe. what would be the proof between you and the buyer that you bought the car?

 

and besides, kailangan mo yan sa transfer of ownership.

 

yes, it can be transferred to your name, but the CR will be "encumbered to" the bank.

A few tips about checkpoints. First is composure. Checkpoints will normally have signs and manned by uniformed PNP or military personnel. If you act nervous, or smell of alcohol, or seem under the influence of drugs, that is an automatic red flag for the police to ask you to step out of the car. Act righteously but politely. Second, as mlpf has said, the police are only allowed to make a VISUAL search, which means that they should not be the ones going through your stuff, although they can ask you to slide your seat back, open the glove compartment, open the trunk but you should be the one moving your things around, not them. Third, cooperate as much as possible, but do not be intimidated, just be polite about it and don't offer anything other than what is being asked of you.

Since the child is illegitimate as you state, you, the mother, have parental authority. Unless there are grounds to challenge your fitness as a mother, I think the father has no case.
