anybody who could give me his opinion about my situation? my wife has several personal bank loans covered by pdcs(personal nya at 1 na joint kami). my wife died last Feb 26. Am i liable sa balance ng mga personal loans nya, particularly doon sa bank where she issued a check na joint acct namin? ur advice would be greatly appreciated

 

The drawee bank will not honor the post dated checks as soon as they find out that the drawer passed away. Even you would need to comply with certain requirements, specifically from the BIR before you can withdraw money from the joint account.

The estate of the decedent is liable for the debts and other obligations of the decedent. The estate of the decedent comprises all her property. If you are under the absolute community of property regime, half of everything the two of you own comprises her estate, not including what you acquired during the marriage through gratuitous title (donated to you or inherited by you). Those she acquired during the marriage through gratuitous title is exclusively hers so that property is included in the estate entirely.

The owner of the property should also check on its property to make it sure that these are taken care of by the sheriff.

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.

Thanks,mlpf for the most helpful,comprehensive reply.

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.

Thanks Doc for the tips. Indeed, knowledge is power; when we meet this situation knowing our rights and their limitations, we are enabled to Cooperate with Composure.

since a contract is between two parties, and the other party involved is you, you have the every right to ask for a copy.

ask your HR for that.

 

but let me tell you that most big companies already do not have contracts. what they can give you is just an appointment paper which states your employment status. if you are on proby or regular status, all benefits and perks that are due to each regular or proby employee should be stated in your employees handbook.

 

things would be different if you are on a consultancy basis. dapat may copy ka ng contract.

 

for the SSS contribution, what is your basis for claiming the delay? Nag inquire ka sa SSS office mismo o naginquire ka lang via website? imho, yung sa website, medyo matagal nila i-upload yung updates. perif nag inquire ka sa SSS mismo and they say that they are not receiving remittances, then talk to the SSS mismo and complain. sila na maghahandle nung issue between the company and them.

 

for all labor related cases, hindi sa court ang punta.... sa NLRC muna.

 

....if incase that is the case( yung appointment paper) ano ang labanko sa kanila if they will not give what is written sa employment contract... for the SSS.. i personally checked it and i think hindi naman cguro aabutin ng 5 mos ang posting.....

i understand may quarterly remittance din ..

what if the sheriff is using the sheriffed vehicle for personal/official use.. can we make a complaint? san office dapat i complain

[Pinoymale]

hi...hope you can help.I am currently working in this company for about 5 mos now ...I'm just worried of what might happen.

What was stipulated in our contract is not given to us like HMO coverage, cell phone? clothing etc... and also contibution for sss is delay( 5 mos).

Is this a punishable offence or can i bring this to court? I really dont know..... thanks.. seeking advise.

 

Check if there is a grievance procedure in your company so that you may discuss this with management. If there is, you have to course your complaint through this, otherwise, if you file a complaint directly with the NLRC, it may be dismissed for failure to resort to the grievance procedure.

A property taken by the sheriff as a consequence of a writ of execution is considered in "custodia legis", meaning, under the custody of the law. If the sheriff used it for his personal gain, that is a violation of his duties and responsibilities in which case, the property owner can complain with the Office of the Court Administrator at the Supreme Court. I would recommend, however, that you first file a complaint with the Court itself inasmuch as it is the trial court which issued the order (writ) directing the sheriff to take the property and put it under the custody of the Court. Otherwise saying, the sheriff is violating the lawful order of the Court itself.

imho bro... mukhang may kasalanan ka ata talaga. since you know he parks there, its a matter of courtesy na dapat iniwasan mo na lang maghugas ng oto dun.

 

but of course, kung property nya yung nilagyan nya ng metal post, he has the right to do so because it is his property. pero kung hindi nya property yun, kasuhan mo din ng obstruction...

Trust is a fiduciary relationship whereby legal title to property is conveyed to a person who has equitable obligations to possess and to use the same for the benefit of another. It differs from an ordinary contract in that it has a TRUSTEE, a TRUSTOR and a BENEFICIARY. The TRUSTEE is given authority by the TRUSTOR to use the property under the TRUSTOR's own name (legal title). In the Civil Code of the Philippines, I believe the only reference to trust is in the section on Implied Trusts, where the possessor of property is deemed by law to be a Trustee with respect to the property so that he cannot claim ownership over it.

slander ba kinaso sayo? anung klaseng slander? slander by deed ba or slander per se? kung slander on the basis na nagmura ka lang, eto ang aking piece of legal opinion. Unang una, me kaso na naifile ayon sa kwento mo. Di mo lang nasabi kung anung stage na, either nasa preliminary investigation stage or nasa court na. either case, ang pagmumura o pagsasabi ng "p#tang %na" ay hindi libelous. sabi ng ating korte suprema, ang pagmumura ay isa lamang "mere expression of disgust" at hindi absolutong "libelous". pangalawa, sa mga kasong ganyan, kelangan ng element ng "malice", ngunit sa kwento mo ala akong nakitang malice as an element of slander (libel). nga lang, it is a metter of defense on your part na lang, kung nasa preliminary investigation, ipakita mo ito sa iyong counter affidavit. kung nasa court na, intayin mo na lang ang turn mo to present your evidence para marinig ang side ng story mo, but of course, your defense counsel should cross examine the complainant on his side of story, to test its veracity.

tama yung sinabi ni dr. pepper

 

additional lang.

 

there are two kinds of trust: express trust at implied trust

 

there are two types of implied trust: resulting trust and constructive trust

 

In express trust, it can be created by agreement between the parties, either in writing or verbally.

 

In implied trust, there are no agreements, the law considers them as trust relationship (by operation of law)

 

Implied resulting trust: there is an intention to create a trust relationship but short of putting the same into an express agreement of trust relationship.

 

example:

 

A bought a real estate property but have the same registered in the name of B, a friend. They failed to agree that the property will be under an express trust relationship. the money used to buy the aforesaid real property came solely from A, but was registered in the name of B. Here, the trustor is B and the trustee is A. B is the legal owner; A is the beneficial owner.

 

Implied constructive trust: there is no intention to create a trust relationship but the law equitably considers the situation as one implied constructive trust.

 

Article 1456 of the civil code is the best example of implied constructive trust.
