As of now, this situation is not covered by the implementing rules of RA9255. i cannot see how this can be done without going to court on a petition for declaratory relief (on the issue of whether a recognized illegitimate child using his father's surname can revert back to his mother's surname).

 

more, even if filed, i do not think this will prosper, as the use of the father's surname is more favorable to the child (his paternity is known and no stigma of illegitimacy attaches to him). likewise, the mother should not decide for the child what surname he will use. In other words, the choice of filing of change of surname should be left to the child when he reaches the age of majority.

 

 

 

maraming, maraming salamat, saer rocco.

i owe you a big one!

kung kulit lang, hindi. ang standard naman ay kung rasonable ba ito o hindi, kung ito ay naayon sa magandang kaugalian o hindi. may karapatan kasi ang nagpautang na maningil, at gumamit ng anumang rasonableng paraan upang maningil. kapag hindi na rasonable, kung may pag-abuso na ng karapatan, maaaring maghain ng reklamo ang sinisingil (pwedeng Unjust Vexation sa ilalim ng Revised Penal Code, Art. 287, o di kaya'y aksyong sibil sa ilalim ng Art. 21 ng Kodigo Sibil). alalahanin mo rin na sa ilalim ng Art. 287, ang paggamit ng dahas ng naniningil upang kunin ang ari-arian ng may utang bilang kabayaran sa utang ay isang krimen.

Salamat ng marami sir Rocco

 

1. Ako ay walang ibang ari-arian maliban dun sa kotse. Wala rin akong mga lupa o pera sa bangko maliban dun sa inereremit sa akin ng kamag-anak ko mula sa ibang bansa na ito ay winiwidraw ko rin. Ano ang gagawin nila kung wala silang mabatak?

 

Covered ang sitwasyon mo ng Art. 1484 ng Civil Code, pag niremata nila sasakyan mo, wala na silang mahahabol pa sa yo na iba. Kung hindi foreclosure ng sasakyan ang habol nila, magkakaproblema sila kasi wala ka ngang pambayad. Di ka naman pwedeng ikulong dahil walang kulong ang utang. Ang best option talaga ng financing company ay habulin ang sasakyan.

 

 

2. Kung sakaling lumabas ang default at isinauli ko ang sasakyan, pati ba yung attorney's fee at iba pang gastos nila ay babayaran ko pa?

 

kung hindi mo naman itinago ang sasakyan at isinuko mo agad ito, wala na silang mahahabol pa. pero kung itinago mo ang sasakyan o di kaya'y di mo ito isinauli agad at napilitan silang gumastos para mabawi ito, maaari nilang bawiin sa yo ang nagastos nila (attorney's fees and costs) para mabawi ang sasakyan [see Filipinas Investment v. Ridad, 30 SCRA 564]. pero, ikaw na rin ang nagsabi na wala ka namang ibang ari-arian. kahit pa may award ng attorney's fees and costs, hindi rin naman nila ito makokolekta sa yo.

 

 

3. Maaari bang parahin na lang ng mga pulis ang sasakyan ko kapag ito ay nakita nila at batakin?

 

kung may order na ang korte ng pagbabawi sa sasakyan, pwede na itong batakin ng sheriff at anytime. hindi pulis kundi sheriff ang babatak sa sasakyan mo (pero usually may kasamang pulis ang sheriff sa pagbatak sa sasakyan mo).

I don't think a petition for declaratory relief is in order. In the first place, RA 9255 gives an acknowledged illegitimate child the right to use his father's surname which is already the case here. Deifinitely, reverting back to the mother's surname is not a situation contemplated under the statute.

 

The proper remedy is just to file a petition for change of name covered by Rule 103 of the Rules of Court. The mother can file the petition on the baby's behalf. Let the court decide then whether the grounds cited for the change of name are reasonable or not.

 

However, this does not really answer the question posed by the original poster.

 

There is no way to legally change the name of the baby without going to court.

 

 

 

di ko napansin reply nyo, saer fauxhead.

many thanks to you, too.

my personal opinion is that even if a case is filed,

the court will decide against the mother for reasons

stated by saer rocco.

baka manalo lang kami kapag kayo kinuha namin!

atty tanong lang po regarding sa RA 8293 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CODE OF THE PHILIPPINES

[Republic Act No. 8293]

 

tanong ko lang po regarding sa claim ng patented items. totoo po ba, di sya considered infrigement kung may napakaliit na detalye salungat sa registered pattend items.

 

example po ng pattendted items is uniform. kapag naiba ng konti yung design from pattend items, di na pwedeng i-claims as infrigemenet?

 

at yung interpretation nyo po dito sa provision below.

 

 

Sec. 79. Limitation of Action for Damages. - No damages can be recovered for acts of infringement committed more than four (4) years before the institution of the action for infringement. (Sec. 43, R. A. No. 165)

 

 

tama po bang pagkakaunawa ko? di na pwedeng mag-file ng infringement case kapag more than 4 years, na pinabayaan gamitin at ipawalang bahala yung "pirated" design na ginagamit or gamitin.

Thanks Attorney ,

di naman ata patentable ang uniform.

 

anyway, assuming patent ang pinag-uusapan. ayun sa 76.1 mg Intellectual property Code, "The making, using, offering for sale, selling, or importing a patented product or a product obtained directly or indirectly from a patented process, or the use of a patented process without the authorization of the patentee constitutes patent infringement." Ibig sabihin, kung minor lang ang pagkakaiba, obtained directly pa rin yun dun sa patented product, kaya liable ka pa rin [note na pwedeng depensa na di mo alam na may patented item pala na ganun, kaya lang mahirap patunayan ito kung may nakatatak na na Phil. Patent dun sa kabilang produkto, see Sec. 80]

mali ang pang-unawa mo. ang ibig lang sabihin nito, yung daños na maaari nilang mabawi ay limitado sa apat na taon lang, di na lalagpas dun. pwede pa rin silang maghabla pero kung since 2000 nyo pa ginagamit ang design, mula 2006 lang na daños ang maaari nilang makuha mula sa inyo, hindi mula 2000.

Write a demand letter to the HR department, asking them to give you your last pay and commission, together with a computation. Attach a copy of your clearance. Copy furnish the president of the company. Keep your tone civil but point out that what they are doing is unreasonable and you would like an explanation why it hasn't been done yet. It's time to document everything just in case you have to file a complaint in DOLE.

 

Dr. Pepper..Thanks for the advice. I wrote a demand letter to my former company per your advice. Kahapon binigay na nila yung huli kong sweldo after over a year. Yun nga lang yung commission ko hinde pa naisama pero nangako sila (again) na in a week or two ibibigay nila din. Good enough.

 

Consult ulit ako.. I helped this company get a project. As a reward they are offering me to be a director of one of their subsidiary company. If ever, as a director, ano po ba ang liability ko say sa isang project pumalpak yung kumpanya or magka-kaso yung kumpanya?

[noknok79]

pwede po, at na aprove at registered na yung design ko under sa Industrial Design.

 

so kahit napakaliit na detalye, example sa uniform, kung ang patented design ay 5 buttons at ang "pirated" ginawa lang ng nilang 4 buttons. at isa po, ang patented design ay may curve pleats pababa, at ang "pirated" ay ginawa lang plain pleats straight pababa. may habol pa rin po kami? kasi identical rin sya or obtained directly sya? meaning may habol pa rin kami?

Glad to be of help. I'm clueless what a director is. Is it a member of the Board of Directors or is it a rank in the company?

[Arneeious]

Thank you!

 

Yes. All donations made during the lifetime of the parent are to be included in computing the estate of the parent after the parent dies. The problem would be in proving that the sale was actually a donation. Likewise, if many years have passed, the heirs might just forget that a sale (that was actually a donation) was made a long long time before.

Sir question,

 

my car got damaged worth400k, i was about to sell it for 600k. Now, the responsible for the damage is not answering my calls and texts when she learned the amount of her damage (as per casa)since her insurance is covering only upto 100k. I already filed a criminal case against her at the fiscal office. Can i sell my car now as is where is since i really need money (the reason why am I selling it in the first place) and have the culprit pay for her damage cost afterwards?

 

Thanks, appreciate it

Yes, you may still sell the car considering you really need the money. If you haven't already done so, I suggest you take pictures of the damaged area/s before you sell the car, for future evidence in your case. The sale of your car will not affect the person's liability since her liability can still be proven even after the sale.
