Facts:
The Court agrees with the Court of Appeals that for nonpayment of the lease rental to be a valid ground to
dispossess the agricultural lessee of the landholding, the
amount of the lease rental must first of all be lawful. If the
amount of lease rental claimed exceeds the limit allowed by
law, non-payment of lease rental cannot be a ground to
dispossess the agricultural lessee of the landholding.
Even assuming Reynalda agreed to deliver 2/3 of the harvest
as lease rental, Reynalda is not obliged to pay such lease
rental for being unlawful. There is no legal basis to demand
payment of such unlawful lease rental. The courts will not
enforce payment of a lease rental that violates the law. There
was no validly fixed lease rental demandable at the time of
the harvests. Thus, Reynalda was never in default.
Reynalda and the Tan Heirs failed to agree on a lawful lease
rental. Accordingly, the DAR must first fix the provisional
lease rental payable by Reynalda to the Tan Heirs pursuant to
the second paragraph of Section 34 of RA 3844 as amended.
Until the DAR has fixed the provisional lease rental, Reynalda
cannot be in default in the payment of lease rental since
such amount is not yet determined. There can be no delay in
the payment of an undetermined lease rental because it is
impossible to pay an undetermined amount.
