At exactly 2 p.m., I arrived at the Prosecutor's Office to attend the Third and hopefully, the Final Hearing of the SWINDLING case maliciously filed against me. It's surprising that there were lots of people who had cases to resolve also.

As instructed by Mr. Sy, he wanted me to request for Final Dismissal of the case and not subject for refiling but because I didn't liked to speak with RRE, who arrived an hour late (as usual), I just told the Asst. Prosecutor that I will not submit anymore the REJOINDER AFFIDAVIT since the accusations were baseless and have it decide for RESOLUTION.

The Asst. Prosecutor wrote something in our file folder and we were asked to signed it.

Since it never took us 3 minutes to hear both sides, the hearing was immediately dismissed. When I went down from third floor, I went straight to the Registry of Deeds (RD) office and looked for the lawyer who issued Annotation Notice against my property in January 2004.

After 15 minutes of waiting, the guy showed up in his desk. We talked and I explained to him that the injustice of filing of Adverse Claim against my property caused us so much inconvenience. The fact that I was the one originally complaining against the broker / buyer of my house last year had been twisted because I didn't have the money to file the case against RRE.

I showed evidences that proved of my innocense and he was so sorry about the tragic fate I had in the hands of the broker. As we went outside RD office, he was about to hand me some money to buy food for my children! Surprised with his initiative, I told him I don't need his money, I want them to reverse the Claim filed against my property and congratulated him on his wedding this year as I left city hall...

I had a meeting with Atty. Acosta at 5 in the afternoon. We decided not to answer the REPLY submitted by RRE to my counter-affidavit, not only to shorten the legal proceedings but, also it does not worth a single reply. The motive of RRE was just to annoy me with senseless and fabricated lies.

With the current situation of Tintin, I apologized with Atty. Acosta that I wouldn't be able to give any portion of the amount we agreed upon, for the initial payment of his Acceptance Fee to my case. However, he was kind enough to understand my situation and willing to help resolve the messy situation I am in, as far as dispute on my property is concerned. Because of this, I promised him that I would pay him double of what he's charges me, should Adverse Claim on TCT will be lifted soon enough so that I can sell my property to any of the three interested buyers: Mr. Sy, Paola, or Richard...

Meanwhile, Mr. Sy brought some chinese food to us again this evening and he hurriedly left as soon as I received them.

I went to City Hall this morning with my daughter, had a 5 minute meeting with RLG and then went to Assessor's Office, secured Order of Payment and later in Land Tax Division. They computed my property tax arrears amounted to P 88,142.54 (US$ 1,602.59)!

When I arrived home, I received the registered REPLY of RRE (dated March 10, 2004) against my submitted Counter-Affidavit last February 26, 2004, she stated the following:

1. The Respondent guilty as charged;
2. Submission of this case for Resolution, and
3. Other relief just and equitable under the premises.

Atty. Acosta told me a Rejoinder will then have to be submitted in reply to RRE's REPLY but reminded me of his minimal Acceptance Fee. With his trust and kindness, I believe he deserves more...

It took me a week to blog my thoughts again. Too many things had happened while my PC has video card problem. My priorities didn't allow me to buy a new video card until now because there are more important things to do.

Sometimes, I was thinking to give up my ladylaila.net site and internet connection to focus well in my life and save P3,000 a month.

Post entries from March 10 until today were posted late due to PC problem...
