CA Raymundo
The first annual rent in the amount of 240,000 shall be due and
payable upon execution of Agreement
The site shall be used for a rock crushing plant and field office,
sleeping quarters and canteen/mess hall.
Likewise, the principle of rebus sic stantibus does not fit with
the facts of the case. It is of judicial notice that after the
assassination of Sen. Ninoy on Aug. 21 1983, the country has
experienced political upheavals, turmoil’s, almost daily mass
demonstrations, etc. On November 3, 1985, Pres. Marcos
announced that there would be a snap election on Feb 7, 1986. On
November 18, 1985, notwithstanding the above, petitioner PNCC
entered into the contract of lease with private respondents with
open eyes to the deteriorating conditions of the country.
Llobrera v. Fernandez
BPI v. CA Reyes
Held: Yes. Compensation shall take place when two persons, in their
own right, are creditors and debtors of each other. Legal
compensation operates even against the will of the interested
parties and even without the consent of them. Since this
compensation takes place ispo jure, its effects arise on the very day
on which all its requisites concur. When used as a defense, it
retroacts to the date when its requisites are fulfilled. Article 1279
states the requisites…
Pabugais v. Sahijwani
Issue: W/N there was valid tender of payment and consignation. W/N
petitioner has the right to withdraw the amount consigned.
Moreover, it appears that only the interest of 18% per annum was
agreed upon by the parties. The manager’s check in the amount of
672,900 was enough to satisfy the obligation. There being a valid
tender of payment in an amount sufficient to extinguish the
obligation, the consignation is valid.
Held: Yes, the contract was valid. There was no express ban on the
importation of transreceivers. The A.C. # 4 merely ordered the
Radio Control Office to suspend the acceptance and processing of
applications for permits to possess, own, transfer…radio
transmitters and transreceivers. Possession and importation of such
was legal provided one had the necessary license for it. Such items
were not prohibited but merely regulated and did not go outside the
commerce of man. They were valid objects of the contract.
No. The facts show that a permit to import the transreceivers from
Japan was denied by the Radio Control Board, which subsequently
prevented Guerrero from securing a letter of credit from the Central
Bank. The law provides that “when the service has become so
manifestly beyond the contemplation of the parties, the obligor may
also be released therefrom in whole or in part.” Here, Guerrero’s
inability to secure a letter of credit and to comply with his obligation
was a direct consequence of the denial of the permit to import. For
this, he cannot be faulted.
Benos v. Lawilao
Held: No. The evidence show that the Lawilao spouses did not make
a valid tender of payment and consignation of the balance of the
contract price. The amount of 159,000 deposited with the MCTC is in
relation to Civil Case 310 (bank’s refusal) and not to the instant
action. Although the Lawilao spouses had repeatedly alleged in their
pleading that the amount was still with the trial court which the
Benos spouses could withdraw anytime, they never made any step
to withdraw the amount and thereafter consign it. Moreover, it is
required that all interested parties are to be notified of the
consignation. In the instant case, records show that the Lawilao
spouses filed the petition for consignation against the bank (Civil
Case 310) without notifying the Benos spouses. Hence, the Lawilao
spouses failed to prove their offer to pay the balance of the
purchase price and consignation, as the petition was dismissed. As
far as the Benos are concerned, there was no full payment of the
contract price, which gives them the right to rescind the contract.
Bank of the Philippine Islands v. CA Go
Private respondent claimed that demand was not made upon him, in
spite of the fact that he co-signed the promissory notes. He also
argues that only four of the eight promissory notes secured by the
mortgage had become due. A reading of the promissory notes
discloses that as co-signor, private respondent waived demand.
Furthermore, the promissory notes contain an acceleration clause.
Held: No. In the case at bar, after the petitioner refused to accept
the tender of payment made by the respondents, the latter failed to
make any consignation of the sum due. Consequently, there was no
valid tender of payment and the respondents are not yet discharged
from the obligation to pay the outstanding balance of the purchase
price of the subject property.
No. Since petitioner did not rescind the Contract to Sell it executed
with the respondents by a notarial act, the said Contract still stands.
Both parties must comply with their obligations under the said
Contract. As ruled by the HLURB Board of Commissioners, and
affirmed by the Office of the President and the Court of Appeals, the
respondents must first pay the balance of the purchase price of the
subject property, after which, the petitioner must execute and
deliver the necessary Deed of Sale and TCT of said property.
United Planters Sugar Milling Co., Inc v. CA, PNB, Asset Privatizaton
Trust
Issue: W/N PNB has the right to set-off the UPSUMCO funds as
compensation either for APT’s deficiency claim or UPSUMCO’s
operating loans to PNB.
Held: Such set-offs were not proper for the following reasons:
2.) PNB set-off UPSUMCO funds not for itself but as APT’s
collecting agent. However, it is settled that legal
compensation under Article 1279 of the Civil Code cannot take
place between an agent of the principal creditor on one hand,
and the principal debtor on the other, where the agent holds
funds of the principal debtor. Compensation can take place
only if both parties are principal creditors and principal
debtors of each other; and
3.) Even if PNB did set-off the funds for itself, such would also
violate Article 1279 of the Civil Code since PNB failed to prove
the UPSUMCO’s alleged debt arising from the operational
loans is due, liquidated and demandable, as required under
Article 1279.
