POSITION PAPER FOR THE DEFENDANT
COMES NOW, Defendant assisted by the Public Attorneys
Office through the undersigned counsel unto this Honorable
Court most respectfully submits his position paper:
BRIEF STATEMENT OF THE CASE
This a civil case for UNLAWFUL DETAINER filed by the
Plaintiff against the Defendant for occupying a house located San
Juan City. Allegedly owned by the Plaintiff by virtue of a Lease of
Contract.
FACTS OF THE CASE
Defendant is a lessee of Mr. Margarito Andrada the known
owner of the land located at San Juan City and ever since he
started living in such place has not been paying rent to the
former. (January 2006 up to present). As proof of the foregoing
copies of the receipt are attached herewith and made an integral
part of this position paper as Annex A and B.
That sometime on January 2006, Conrado Tolentino enters
stealthily into my property in San Juan. Mr. Tolentino puts up a
small nipa hut and my friend learned that he is merely
encroaching into my property, because he said that he has no
place to live. Being Kind of a person whos prone to premonitions,
we made a Lease of Contract that we agreed on March 08, 2006.
Copy of the Lease of Contract is hereto attached as Annex A. As
time pass by, I reminded and I have sent him several letters of
demand for the payments of the rentals but Mr. Conrado
Tolentino Have not come forward yet the money and he never
made specific arrangements to pay his balance. A copy of the
Demand Letter is hereto attached as Annex B

The Contract of Lease has already expired and I

have made repeated attempts to collect but he refused
to make the final payment.
I requested him to vacate and just pay the premises but
he take it to grant. Margarito Andrada , is in need of

money and
defendant.

therefore

needs

the

support

of

the

ISSUES
Whether or not the plaintiff has the right to compel the
defendant his rental dues.
DISCUSSION AND ARGUMENTS
The plaintiff has no sufficient cause of action against the
defendant for the fact that the case involves a question of
OWNERSHIP and DEFENDANT admits that he is not paying the
rental of the unit. Hence the defendant has no capabilities to pay
the said rents.
Since the filing of the complaint, plaintiff has always
asserted that she is the OWNER of the said property and by this
reason alone claims the right to possess the rental dues.
Plaintiffs right to possess the said dues hinges from the Lease of
Contract made by the Plaintiff himself of the property.
After a careful perusal of claims and defenses of both
parties the case pending before the Honorable Court is clearly a
question of if the defendant can or cannot pay his or her
liabilities. In case involving question of OWNERSHIP the court
having jurisdiction of the case is the proper REGIONAL TRIAL
COURT as provided for by the Rules.
PRAYER
WHEREFORE, it is most respectfully prayed before this
Honorable Court that the liabilities imposed by the plaintiff be
minimized for me to be able to pay his demands .
Other reliefs just and equitable under the premises are
likewise prayed for.
RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED.
