I was rear ended by another car yesterday. The owner said his insurance is expired and so I presume his car registration is also expired. Assuming his car registration is expired, is it a ground on my end to complain to the traffic investigator regarding this and ask the policeman to include this fact in his police report?

it does not follow that just because the insurance has expired , his car registration has also expired (he was probably referring to comprehensive insurance, which would have covered damage to the car). what the law mandates to be obtained yearly is Third-Party Liability Insurance, which answers for bodily injury or death in car accidents (it doesn't cover property damage). The best proof of registration of the vehicle would be the Official Receipt (OR). Kung wala siya nun, mas malamang sa hindi expired ang rehistro. Kung expired na, you can ask the investigator to include this in the report (altho hindi rin naman problema kung hindi isasama, dahil kung hindi talaga rehistrado, pwede mo i-raise ang point na ito at anytime).

an expired insurance does not necessarily mean an expired registration, if you are talking about the comprehensive insurance. if it is a CTPL, it is valid, and therefore the registration is valid. however, pag ikaw nabangga, hindi sya pwedeng mag claim sa CTPL.

 

it is best to validate talaga if the registration is lapsed. kung lapsed, pwede isama yan sa kaso.

Is it possible to fil legal separation even if my ex-wufe is out of the country?

Is it possible to fil legal separation even if my ex-wufe is out of the country?

yes, although it might just make the process longer. if nobody accepts the summons (the order requiring her to answer the petition for separation) at her last known address on the ground that she is out of country and the process server informs the Court of that fact, the Court might then require publication of the summons and the petition (that would now take additional time). On the other hand, if somebody accepts the summons, and the process server reports that the summons have been duly served through substituted service, the case starts rolling on the normal process.

 

[People cannot prevent others from filing cases by going out of the country; that would make rich people more privileged than the poor, who may not be able to afford to travel abroad. Remember, justice should be equally accessible to all]

 

On a side note, why file for legal separation. Gagastos ka na rin lang, declaration of nullity or annulment na ang isampa mo, almost pareho din lang naman ang gastos.

The friend would like to know if she could have her husband deported?

 

Unfortunately, abandonment of one's spouse is not a ground for deportation back to the Philippines. What she can do is to file child abuse charges against her husband here in the Phils. Should her husband come back to the Philippines, then he has to face the charges. But so long as he is not in the Phils., she basically has no remedy. Our laws cannot be enforced abroad.

 

 

OR, since support is probably the remaining issue, being a seaman (assuming he is not TNT but a registered OFW), he is mandated to send remittance ("allotment") which should not be lower than 80%. If your the legal wife, chances are, you are the declared allottee. If not, you can file a case for support or, better, "economic abuse" under the VAWC law so that it can compel the remittance center, in this case the manning agency, to forward to you the allotment.

Go to the LTO Office. Mas maganda kung sa Central (East Avenue). Dun mo na din makikita registered owner of the vehicle.

Sir, question. If nkaaksidente ba ng 3 yr old kid, may pananagutan ba ang nakabundol na sasakyan, if biglang tumakbo yung bata palabas ng house nila with an open gate. Ngkaayos nmn kami nung parent nung bata and sinagot ko yung hospitalization. Kaya lang lagi kong naririnig sa kanila na dapat pati therapy sagot ko.

May nakausap akong secretary ng lawyer. Ang sabi dahil sa bata yun, kasalanan nung parents dahil in the first place, wala sya sa kalye na suppose to be para sa mga sasakyan.

As far as the therapy is concerned, technically you are responsible for that because you were the cause of the injury. The negligence of the parents cannot outweigh the negligence of the accident. To prove that its the parents fault is a stretch and if successful will only mitigate (not eliminate) your "fault".

 

I would suggest to give a large lump sum as a "settlement" and in return ask for a release and quit claim.
