ART. 2232 CIVIL CODE

Iniwanan sa simbahan  IKAW AT ANG BATAS Ni Atty. Jose C. Sison (Pilipino Star Ngayon) Updated April 28, 2011 12:00 AM Comments (4)

ANG kasong ito ay nag-umpisa sa isang pag-iibigan na puno ng pag-asa at pagmamahalan. Sinundan pa ng detalyadong pagpaplano at magarbong preparasyon na humantong lang sa pagkapahiya at kalungkutan.

Ito ang kuwento ng isang dalaga na tawagin nating Cindy. Nagkaroon siya ng nobyo na ang pangalan ay Robert. Nakilala niya ito sa isang kilalang unibersidad kung saan sila parehong nag-aaral. Ang relasyon ng dalawa ay kalat sa buong eskuwelahan dahil na rin sa tamis ng kanilang pagmamahalan. Sa kanilang mga ka-klase, kitang-kita na isang relasyon ito na hahantong sa simbahan at magiging masayang-masaya ang dalawa.

Nagpatuloy ang relasyon nina Cindy at Robert hanggang makagradweyt sa kolehiyo. Natuloy ang engagement at nagplano ng kasal ang dalawa. Ang tradisyonal na pamanhikan ay sinunod. Kumuha ng lisensiya sa kasal. Ang kasal ay tinakda ng Setyembre, isang Sabado sa isang kilalang simbahan. Maganda ang mga imbitasyon na ipinalimbag at ipinadala sa mga kaanak, kakilala at kaibigan ng dalawa. Ang gown ni Cindy, mga damit sa selebrasyon, iba pang damit ng mga abay at flower girl ay binili at inihanda na. Kinontrata na ang isang five-star hotel kung saan gaganapin ang reception ng kasal. Kahit nga ang mismong kama o "matrimonial bed" pati ang lahat ng mga gamit ay binili na. Ngunit, dalawang araw bago ang kasal, nakatanggap ng isang nakababahalang sulat si Cindy mula kay Robert. Sinasabi nito na ipagpaliban muna nila ang kasal dahil sa posibleng pagtutol ng ina ng lalaki. Pero sumunod na araw ay sinabi naman ng lalaki na walang problema at tuloy ang itinakdang kasalan. Sa kasamaang-palad, iyon na ang huling narinig ni Cindy mula kay Robert. Ang pinakaaaba-ngan na kasalan ay nakansela. Sa tindi ng sama ng loob at pagkapahiyang naranasan, kinasuhan ni Cindy at ng kanyang pamilya si Robert para maghabol ng danyos. Makakakuha ba si Cindy ng bayad sa danyos-perwis­yong inabot?

OPO. Ang ordinaryong pangako ng kasal ay hindi naman talaga tatanggapin na kaso sa korte. Walang ma­gagawa kung sakaling hindi ito panindigan. Kaya lang ang ginawa rito sa kasong ito na pormal na pagtatakda ng ka­ sal, magarbong paghahanda at detalyadong preparasyon, pagkatapos ay bigla na lang iiwanan ang kawawang ba­baeng papakasalan sa altar ay ibang usapin na. Kaila-ngang panagutan ni Robert ang lahat ng bayarin at danyos dahil hindi na ito simpleng paglabag sa ating kinamulatang tradisyon. Hindi limi­tado ang sakop ng kayang ikaso sa tao. Ayon sa ating batas (Art. 21 Civil Code), ang kahit sino na kusang loob na gagawa ng isang ba­ gay na makakapanakit sa iba sa paraan na kontra sa moralidad, tradisyon o panuntunan ng publiko ay dapat magbayad ng danyos-perwisyo. Maari pa nga na ang danyos ay magmula sa pagkapahiya (moral) o para hindi na siya tularan ng iba (exemplary damage) (Art. 2219[10] & Art. 2232 Civil Code). Bilang basehan ay puwedeng gamitin ni Cindy ang desisyon sa kasong Wassmer v. Veles 12 SCRA 648.

SO WITH THE CALLUSES ON THE 'EYES OF THE COURT'

President: No more blindfold on 'eyes of bureaucracy'

MANILA, Philippines—President Benigno Aquino III Tuesday told state auditors—"the eyes of the bureaucracy," in his words—that they could now do their job of safeguarding the public coffers without fear that they would be stopped.

Speaking at the 112th anniversary celebration of the Commission on Audit (COA) at its office in Quezon City, the President urged state auditors to join his administration's fight against corruption, saying that things were now different under his watch.

"If before, auditors were afraid to reveal the anomalies they see in government transactions, now you are given the power to be free, brave and fearless in your duties. If before, unscrupulous officials tend to raid the public coffers, now just hearing the name COA would strike fear in them and they would withdraw," Mr. Aquino said in a speech delivered in Filipino.

"Being the eyes of the bureaucracy, you know that no one is blindfolding you in tracking down anomalies. No one is stopping you to speak up against things that are not right, and no one is tying you so you can fulfill your mandate to be honest and loyal guardians of the people's money," he said.

Top women

Mr. Aquino made special mention of both COA Chair Grace Pulido Tan and Commissioner Heidi Mendoza in his speech.

He said it was important in his crusade against corruption to bring into the commission people who could be trusted and would not consider any government official as a sacred cow. He said this was why he did not hesitate to appoint Tan as its chair.

"And when we met Heidi Mendoza, we also did not pass up the chance to appoint her as commissioner," he said of the woman who blew the whistle on the irregular transactions made by former military comptroller Carlos Garcia.

The President also said those named "Heidi" or its variants were apparently women who were fearless and who would not exchange principles for bribes. He cited the efforts of auditor Haydee Pasuelo from Iloilo City, who was able to stop three agencies from spending P97.8 million and discovered that two government officials had been able to steal more than P1 million.

Pasuelo was named COA's outstanding employee for the year and received an award from the President.

Mr. Aquino also called on state auditors not to accept bribes from agencies whose records they were examining, whether in the form of a house, a car or money.

The right path

"This is true service. This is the right path. This is the realization of our goal for change, and you auditors are in the frontline of this fight," he said.

The President said he expected the new Ombudsman who would replace the resigned Merceditas Gutierrez would be able to work well with the COA.

"If the COA files a case in the Office of the Ombudsman, we are expecting that it will be attended to and studied well, that it will not be just put in a corner, or that it will be resolved with the people ending up losing," he said.

The President is now waiting for the Judicial and Bar Council to submit a short list of nominees for Ombudsman.

Stellar auditors

Gutierrez, who was impeached by the House of Representatives, was to have been tried at the Senate this month. She submitted her resignation to Mr. Aquino last week.

Despite threats to their lives, a group of state auditors have examined the records of numerous transactions and have gone the extra mile to uncover irregularities involving public funds, primarily the scam involving Pag-IBIG housing loans.

On Tuesday, the COA honored them in a ceremony attended by a President for the first time.

Two groups led the awardees—Audit Team 3 from Regional Office VII (Central Visayas) in Tacloban City, and Audit Team 6 from its Regional Office I (Ilocos) in San Fernando—which had uncovered bogus borrowers, ineligible developers and other irregularities involving the Home Development Mutual Fund or Pag-IBIG.

The irregular transactions involved over P500 million in funds. The members of Audit Team 3 are Rodulfo Ariesga, Alicia Malquisto, Imelda Oballo, Elena Merida and Josefina Galos. The members of Audit Team 6 are Sabiniano Cabatuan, Pelilia Veloso, Herminia Laforteza and Nixon Niera.

The Pag-IBIG loan scam had also headlined legislative inquiries.

According to the COA, the auditors of Team 6 did not have an easy time because they received threats to their safety when they were scrutinizing the housing records. The officials they were investigating also delayed the submission of reports and records, and offered self-serving explanations.

Those they had investigated also resorted to misrepresentations to distract the team's attention from the issue.

The COA said the accomplishments of Team 3, which is considered the whistle-blower of the Pag-IBIG loan scam, helped enhance the commission's image and credibility, especially when the team testified at congressional hearings on the bogus housing loan borrowers.

Team 3's technique in uncovering the anomalies will help future investigations because it shared its audit programs that can be implemented nationwide, the COA said.

COA's role in governance

The commission commended Pasuelo for her work disallowing the expenses of three government agencies amounting to P97.84 million, and which have also resulted in the dismissal of two government officers for malversation of public funds amounting to P1.25 million.

The expenses that Pasuelo had disallowed included disbursements for financial assistance to volunteer health workers, procurement of digital sterilizers for a hospital and payment of extra cash gift to employees of the provincial government of Iloilo.

The COA said Pasuelo's accomplishments heightened the people's awareness of the commission's role in good governance and in the fight against graft and corruption.

THE NATIONAL TREASURY IS PEOPLE'S MONEY

ARE WE making great strides in the fight against corruption?
Yes and no.
The yes is patent. You compare the Senate hearings on the NBN deal with the one we have on the Garcia plea-bargaining case, and you see that the differences are monumental.
In the NBN case, you had a sense of the Senate working under a hostile environment. That environment was a government determined to cover up the perfidy, not least because it involved its highest officials leading up to the First Couple themselves. Though some of the senators performed brilliantly, with no small help from Jun Lozada, unearthing not just an entire conspiracy to defraud the public but an entire culture behind it—"moderate the greed" was one of the mind-boggling concepts it bequeathed to us—you had a feeling it would go the route of the Jose Pidal case, the "Hello, Garci" case, the Mega Pacific case.
Which it did.
In today's investigation of the generals, you have a sense that the Senate can really get to the bottom of things, no small thanks to a government giving it no reason not to. The senators have been spirited in their interpellation, or interrogation. I particularly like the part where Franklin Drilon put Edgardo Yambao in a quandary by asking him if he was waiving his right to deposits totaling P255 million in various banks after he denied owning them. It made him reconsider his position posthaste. Not an easy choice: future loss of freedom for money laundering and/or tax evasion or immediate loss of a fortune for abandoning a claim to it.
You have the sense that this time around, the crooks won't just be found, they will be punished. The newfound zeal has already driven someone to end his life, though that is probably more a testament to his own moral code than to the Senate's heightened acuity. But though Angelo Reyes may be a fluke, his death helps to push back the culture of impunity, which applied not just to murder but to theft. Before this, the corrupt could rob the country blind and expect not be touched—not by the shadow of jail, not by the breath of death. Reyes' death showed they can. Where their own hand fails, justice can always lend a hand.
Along with Merceditas Gutierrez's impending impeachment, President Aquino's "Pag walang corrupt, walang mahirap" seems to be getting a lot of traction. Those two things, the Senate hearing on Garcia and Gutierrez's impeachment, are bound to impact on each other and reinforce each other, making them more than the sum of their parts. The signs are hopeful in that respect.
So, yes, we are making inroads in the fight against corruption.
The no is a lot less patent but no less real. You can see that too in one vital similarity between the NBN hearing and the Garcia one. That is the lack of public outrage surrounding it.
There is public interest surrounding it, but not widespread outrage, not deep-seated opprobrium, not complete and utter reprehension. There were pockets of it during the NBN hearing, particularly after Lozada narrated his abduction, and there are pockets of it now, particularly after Reyes took his own life. But it does not seep downward.
That's the missing link in our investigations of corruption, in our hearings about pillage. In other countries, public opinion is very much a part of those investigations and hearings, public revulsion at the crooks, civil or military, is very much an element guaranteeing that they will be found out and punished. Not so here.
One is tempted to say that the solution is to exhort the public to be more vigilant of their rights, to be more watchful about their liberties, to be more jealous about their property. In part that is true: A great deal of indifference and cynicism has seeped into the culture, no small thanks to the last nine years, which needs pushing back. But it's really more than that. Because the problem really is not that we are tolerant of the robbery that is taking place before our eyes, it is that we cannot see the robbery that is taking place before our eyes.
The common reaction from the man in the street, "Sila sila lang naman 'yan," suggests the depth of the problem: It's just a division of spoils. If corruption is robbery at all, it is robbery between public officials. They are robbing each other, they are screwing each other. They are not robbing us, they are not screwing us.
To be jealous of your property, you must know that it is your property. That's the crux of the problem. Elsewhere in the world, that is very clear. Taxes are the people's money, the national treasury is the people's money, the money that public officials use is the people's money. That is not at all clear here. We do not really see taxes as our money. We—the poor especially who imagine they do not pay taxes anyway when in fact they do courtesy of VAT—do not see taxes as something we entrust to government to give back to us in the form of roads and bridges and schoolhouses. We see taxes as gratuity, or tong, we are required to give our officials in the same way that serfs give up part of their harvest to their lords, in the same way that vassals give tribute to their masters. Once we give it to them, it is no longer our property, it is theirs.
We do make paeans to taxpayers' money as being the people's money, but that hasn't seeped into the culture, that hasn't seeped into the national consciousness. That is what needs to be done. The fight against corruption cannot be waged solely by government. That is impossible; all that it will lead to is a reasonably honest government succeeding in moderating the greed. So long as the people themselves are not incensed by corruption because they do not see it as stealing from them, so long will it thrive, moderated or not.
We've still a long way to go.

DISCIPLINING JUDGES SHOULD BE TRANSACTED IN PUBLIC

How Judges Hide From Justice

By ROBERT H. TEMBECKJIAN

Published: May 22, 2005

IN the last three months, the New York State Commission on Judicial Conduct has publicly disciplined four metropolitan-area judges: two from Brooklyn, one from Manhattan and one from Westchester. Apart from some intense public commentary over the merits of these decisions - three public censures and one removal from office - these cases had at least one thing in common. They were all conducted in secret. That should be changed.

Judges are among the most powerful of public servants. They decide who goes to jail, who wins or loses millions of dollars and who gets custody of children. Public confidence in their integrity and impartiality is essential to the rule of law. While a vast majority of judges are honorable, there will always be some who engage in unethical behavior. Disciplining such judges is important business that should be transacted in public, just as any civil or criminal trial would be.

In 38 states, judicial misconduct hearings are indeed open to the public. Not so in New York, where proceedings that stretch over months are held behind closed doors. Only when the results are announced does the public even learn such cases existed. By then, it is usually too late to convey in a meaningful way the strength of the case, the credibility of the witnesses and the merits of the defense. The four recent decisions in New York offer cases in point.
The commission voted to remove a Surrogate's Court judge in Brooklyn for awarding a long-time friend millions of dollars in fees from estates where there was no executor, without confirming that he had done enough work to earn such fees. The judge is appealing the decision.
The commission censured a Westchester Family Court judge who attempted to influence other judges and court workers on behalf of friends in two divorce and custody cases, and who testified in a manner she conceded was inaccurate. It also censured a Brooklyn Criminal Court judge for coming off the bench in unprovoked anger and grabbing and screaming at a defense lawyer. Finally, it censured a Manhattan Civil Court judge for presiding over a personal injury case involving a litigant who was also a lawyer with whom she continued to socialize, and to whom she awarded a fiduciary appointment worth about $80,000 in fees, while the case was pending.
Reasonable people may differ with these decisions. As the prosecutor of judicial misconduct cases in New York, I myself am sometimes at odds with the commission. Yet while some criticized the removal as severe, and others derided the censures as lenient, most tended to miss the context and nuance of the deliberations. The subtleties of an individual disciplinary decision tend to get short shrift in the news. Were the press and public able to follow along as these cases unfolded, the disciplinary process would not seem so sudden and mysterious, and citizens would be better informed along the way. For example, the case against the Brooklyn Surrogate's Court judge lasted 22 months, and the record was over 13,000 pages long. It would be difficult, if not impossible, to capture the complexities of such a proceeding in a single article that reported the final result.
New York's chief judge, Judith Kaye, proposed legislation in 2003, which the commission endorsed, to open up the disciplinary process at the point when a judge is formally charged with misconduct. Unfortunately, the Legislature did not act. Perhaps the commission's recent decisions might spur the Senate and Assembly to revisit the issue. The more citizens know about what goes on at the commission, the more likely they will appreciate that no case is as cut and dried as a critic may suggest. The press and public could follow the arguments as they develop, rather than try to digest them all at once when the decisions are rendered.
Moreover, an open proceeding would shed important light on the rare instance in which a formal charge against a judge is dismissed without any disciplinary action. It would provide the public with the means to assess that a dismissal was deserved and the system was honest.
In short, a public process would transform judicial discipline from a secretive game to one in which the commission's judgments were open to scrutiny and improvement as we went along, while there was time enough to make a difference. Public confidence in the judiciary, and in the disciplinary system that holds them accountable, requires nothing less.

SUBJECT : NEED HELP TO PROSECUTE R. A. No. 3019 OFFENDERS


Dear Sir:


Maligayang bati po sa inyong lahat !


Mangyari pong ilahad ko muna ang ilang bahagi ng Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act bilang panimula.

Republic Act No. 3019 (Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act)
xxxa) "Government" includes the national government, the local governments, the government-owned and government-controlled corporations, and all other instrumentalities or agencies of the Republic of the Philippines and their branches.
(b) "Public officer" includes elective and appointive officials and employees, permanent or temporary, whether in the classified or unclassified or exempt service receiving compensation, even nominal, from the government as defined in the preceding subparagraph.xxx
xxxSection 3. Corrupt practices of public officers. — In addition to acts or omissions of public officers already penalized by
existing law, the following shall constitute corrupt practices of any public officer and are hereby declared to be unlawful:xxx

xxx(e) Causing any undue injury to any party, including the Government, or giving any private party any unwarranted
benefits, advantage or preference in the discharge of his official administrative or judicial functions through manifest
partiality, evident bad faith or gross inexcusable negligence. This provision shall apply to officers and employees of
offices or government corporations charged with the grant of licenses or permits or other concessions. xxx

xxxSection 11. Prescription of offenses. — All offenses punishable under this Act shall prescribe in ten years.xxx
xxx Section 15. Separability clause. If any provision of this Act or the application of such provision to any person or circumstances is declared invalid, the remainder of the Act or the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such declaration.xxx

Nabanggit ko po ang mga provision ng R.A. 3019 dahil kaugnay po niyan ang aking ilalapit na asunto sa inyo. Nais ko pong maisampa ang kaso laban sa mga sumusunod na kawani ng ating pamahalaan, una, isang clerk of court ng Supreme Court, pangalawa, tatlong hukom ng Court of Appeals, pangatlo, tatlong comissioners ng NLRC, at pangapat, isang labor arbiter dahilan sa kanilang evident bad faith or gross inexcusable negligence and wilful ignorance sa kanilang pagtupad ng tungkulin nang kanilang sangayunan at gawing tumpak na gamitin ng kumpanya ang aking retirement benefits bilang pambayad sa akin noong tangalin ako sa trabaho bilang separation pay. Ang retirement benefit ay dapat galawin lang sa panahong magreretiro na ako. Ngunit ito ay ginalaw ng kumpanya at ipinambayad sa akin bilang separation pay.Ito po maliwanag na pandaraya ngunit hindi nakita ng nagbubulagbulagang kawani ng mga pingdaanang hukuman, dahil sa wilful ignorance and gross inexcusable negligence ng mga kawaning nabanggit ay naipagkait sa akin ang katarungan at nakuha ng kumpanya ang labis na kapakinabangan. Tinanggal na nila ako sa trabaho, at kinurakot pa nila ang alin man sa aking retirement benefits o separation pay.

Dagdag pa rito, ang pagsangayon nila at di pagtutol sa paglabag ng kumpanya sa Job Security provision ng aming CBA na nagsasaad ng ganito, xxxThe union recognizes the right of the company to contract out work. However, no employee shall suffer loss of employment due to contracted out work. xxx Noong tanggalin po ako sa trabaho ay maraming trabaho namin ang ipinakokontrata ng kumpanya, itong provision na ito ng aming CBA ay hindi man lang isinalang alang ng ating mga lingkod bayan na humawak ng asuntong ito. Marami pa pong iba. Malaki po ang pakinabang ng kumpanya sa gross wilful and unlawful fraud and inexcusable negligence at pagbubulagbulagan nila na nagdulot ng ibayong pinsala sa akin. Ang mahalaga po ay malaman ninyo ang aking nais na maisampa ang kaso laban sa kanila bago matapos ang sampong taon, sa dahilang kapag di sila nasampahan ng kaso at mapanagot ay mananatili sila sa katungkulan at patuloy na maghahasik ng kabuktutan at katiwalian sa ating bayan. Kung sakaling sila ay maisakdal at maparusahan sa butihing tulong ninyo, ito ay magsilbing halimbawa sa ating sambayanang Pilipino na ang kabuktutan at katiwalian ay walang puwang sa ating pamahalaan lalong higit sa ating bayan.
Kasalukuyan po akong nakikitira sa tahanan ng aking kapatid sa sumusunod na address:

SHARED BY THE CLAYTONS AND FRIENDS

JUDGE FLORO'S SATIRE ON VIDEO

IT BE CASTED , IT SHALL BE DONE

LUIS: Mark my word, they will regret it!



LUIS, Armand and Angel to Judge Floro: We will punish with dire illnesses, death, accidents and horrible deaths any person and all those who ridicule, deny and humiliate you, our sole instrument and immortal friend!

Military honor guards take the casket of the late Press Secretary Cerge Remonde to a waiting Air Force plane that will fly him to Cebu.

Cerge Remondo: Health Curse in the PGMA Cabinet Eduardo Ermita said that President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo was stupefied when she learned of Remonde's death, adding that many Palace officials remained in a state of unbelief up to now. "Namangha si pangulo (She was stupefied)," he said when asked about Mrs. Arroyo's reaction

At last, Cerge Remonde would decide to give Jobless Judge Floro, an audience in the 7th plane of LUIS, Armand and Angel

Remonde, 51, died shortly before noon on Tuesday after suffering a heart attack. His doctor said the secretary suffered from a coronary artery disease, along with health risks such hypertension and diabetes. His personal physician Anthony Leachon also noted that Remonde had gotten back to smoking lately. "Mukhang meron siyang coronary artery disease, at ang weight factor.

Judge Floro cursed the Presidential Management Staff (PMS) Building on December 14, 2006

May diabetes at hypertension, tumaas ang cholesterol level niya, at lately napapanigarilyo siya (He appeared to have coronary heart disease, and there is the weight factor. He had diabetes and hypertension, and high cholesterol. Lately he had taken up smoking)," Leachon had said in an interview Tuesday on dzBB radio.



Judge Floro cursed Argao, Cebu, hometown of his persecutor, Hilario G. Davide, Jr. Remonde was born on Dec. 21, 1958 in Argao, Cebu. He received his Bachelor of Arts degree, magna cum laude, from the University of the Visayas in 1977. Remonde also wrote for Sun Star Cebu and Manila Bulletin.

In 1999, he was declared Most Outstanding Cebuano, along with former Chief Justice Hilario Davide Jr. From being a Cebu-based broadcaster, Cerge Remonde rose to become a member of President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo's Cabinet.

Air Force honor guards prepare to load the casket of the late Press Sec. Cerge Remonde to a C-150 plane on Friday for his burial in Cebu. January 23 2010

He served as anchor of the highly rated dyLA Interaction, a primetime show that set the benchmark for public affairs programming in Cebu.

Cardiac arrest

Marit Stinus, wife of the late press secretary Cerge Remonde, is greeted by family and friends after they arrived in Cebu City Friday. Remonde, who died of cardiac arrest last Tuesday, will be buried in Argao January 23, 2010.

Remonde was pronounced dead at 11:51 a.m. Tuesday from cardiac arrest. He was 51. His driver found him unconscious and naked at 10:30 a.m. in the bathroom of his home in Makati.

Cerge Remonde's mortal remains, brought inside the Argao Church, when he was judged with the 3 mystic dwarves virtually present thereat.

He was rushed to the Makati Medical Center where doctors failed to revive him. Remonde wasn't breathing and had no pulse and heartbeat when he was brought into the emergency room, said Dr. Eric Nubla, hospital spokesperson.

Hypertension, diabetes

With bended knees, Judge Floro filed his December 14, 2006 Letter-Application for Job-Work, asking Mercy from Cerge M. Remonde

On December 14, 2006, 2:50 p.m. Judge Floro filed his Letter-Application and knelt down and beg mercy for "job, work, trabajo and occupation" from PMS Director, Secretary Cerge M. Remonde. Floro was never given his repeatedly asked personal audience, and further, humilated, denied and ridiculed. Floro cursed the PMS building.

Dr. Anthony Leachon, personal cardiologist of Remonde, said the press secretary's cardiac arrest could be attributed to a confluence of factors such as his hypertension, diabetes, his cervical spine problem and his perennial habit of smoking. He added that Remonde suffered cardiac arrest at about 9:30 a.m. and was found unconscious in his bathroom an hour later. He noted an hour and a half had intervened from the time Remonde was found to the time he was brought to the hospital at 11:20 a.m.
