Tnx, Atty Chato! Your videos are always loud and clear as well as useful and helpful. By choosing to speak in Tagalog, more Filipinos can understand our law. Keep safe and God bless.

Happy to help, Cecilia.
Hi Atty! My recit was so bad a while ago. “Bokya” ika nga. So here I am, pushing myself to study even though I’m already sleepy. 😅
Keep studying, but pace yourself. Take short breaks.
Hello Atty Chato, thank you for your useful video. I have one question if you could please clarify. I live in Cebu and loaned to someone who lives in Davao. We signed a promissory note and I notice it says all legal action must be made in Davao. Does that mean I am legally required to lodge a small claim where the defendant lives? Or do the rules still allow me to lodge where I live? Thank you.
Hi. It depends on whether the PN states that all legal actions must be filed exclusively, solely or only in Davao (or similar words of exclusivity). If it doesn't use words of exclusivity, you may file where you live.
@@easylawonline Thanks for your information. Yes, it does says exclusively in Davao. However, I read this from FAQs of the revised rules which state "If the contract of loan between the plaintiff
and the defendant has an express provision
that venue is stipulated in a specific area,
which is controlling - the stipulated venue or
2nd paragraph of Section 7?
Section 7 shall apply. Since the Revised Rules is
a special rule of procedure, the same is
controlling over stipulations in a contract. Section
7 states that the regular rules on venue shall
apply, but “if the plaintiff is engaged in the
business of lending, banking and similar
activities, and has a branch within the
municipality or city where the defendant resides,
the Statement of Claim/s shall be filed where that
branch is located.”
Doesn't that mean that the revised rules overrides the statement of location exclusivity in the PN??
Gd pm mam, paano ho kung nagpautang ng walang kasulatan dahil sa tiwala sa pagiging matalik na kaibigan? At halos nangyari iyon 8 years na ang lumipas?
Hi Lydia, tanong ko lang muna sa iyo, kailan mo siyang huling siningil? Depende dito kung pwede mo pa syang habulin o hindi. Padalan mo ako ng email sa chato@profchato.com para mas ma-explain ko ito sa iyo.
hi Atty, ask q lng,
pwd po bng magsampa ng kaso ung may utang sa small claims?
(ako po kc ang pinaBrgy -ako po ang nagPautang 😅)
sana po mabasa nyu tong comment ko 💚
Good day po salamat po sa kaalaman. Ask ko lang po . Dahil po ang mga batas ay madali na malaman at makita sa social media. Paano po kung ang lawyer ay halata ng ng client na ipinatatalo ang kaso. Ano po ang gagawin ni client. Maliban po sa i withdraw ang case sa atty.? O halata pong ipinatalo ni atty? Pasintabi po,
If you have enough evidence you can file a case at the Integrated Bar of the Philippines.
Hello Atty, tanong ko po, what if po pumunta po ng ibang lugar ang defendant, hindi na po maseserve ang summon sa kanya kasi wala na sya sa residence nya at nagttrabaho na sya ngayon sa ibang lugar, my remedy pa po ba yung plaintiff? Salamat
Yes, under the 2019 Rules on Civil Procedure there are ways of serving summons outside the country. You will find this article useful manilastandard.net/opinion/columns/footnotes-by-tranquil-g-s-salvador-iii/362795/extraterritorial-service-of-judicial-documents.html
Hello atty. May decision po ng judge sa Small claims na ikinaso ko kay defendant kasi po hindi cya nagpasa ng sagot at hindi rin po pumunta sa hearing,then nag file po cya ng petition for certiorari at na dismissed then nag file ulit po sya ng motion for reconsideration.posible po ba yun? Sana po masagot nyo po.thanks atty.
Hi. If the certiorari petition was dismissed, there's a small chance na ma reconsider depende kung gaano kalakas ang legal position nya.
@@easylawonline thanks atty.
Atty good day po. Paano po kung hindi naka attend si complanant, ano po ang consequences?
The case will be dismissed, without prejudice (it can be re-filed).
@@easylawonline Thank you so much Attorney.. GOD Bless you more🙏
