Art. 263-266 people vs. buyco 80 phil. Reports 58 distinguished from
people vs. barde

People vs. villacorte… if there is conspiracy, and question pertains to


liability of the mastermind, he is criminally liable.
Evasion of service of sentence is a continuing crime so he can be
prosecuted in any of both (where convicted and where arrested) as in the
case of conviction of diestierro when he entered pasig city.

Civil liability based on crime not quasi delict (reckless imprudence)


Voluntary surrender – “surrender must be spontaneous” art 13 p. 7

But for purposes of imposing civil liability, treachery would still be


considered.

There is only one degree lower if there is privilege mitigating :

1. Over 15 under 18 acting with discernment


2. Incomplete justifying or incomplete exempting

If there is no aggravating, only ordinary mitigating, the penalty to be


imposed is the lesser of the two indivisible crimes.

If victim of kidnapping is raped several times on several days and


was killed
What crime is committed? Kidnapping with homicide…whenever the
victim is killed and there areother crimes committed, such as rape,
the crime would still be kidnapping with homicide. In special complex
crim, whenever there is rape, and other crimes, it should always be
kidnapping with homicide. In the case of robbery, one of the victims
is killed, or rape, the crime would still be robbery with homicide. Y?
whenever there is killing, the killing would be used in the intended
crime because killing is the highest crime or category of crime
compared to other crimes. The crime is used in generic. The
component crime should be consummated. No special complex
crime of kidnapping with frustrated murder. Complex crime under art.

prohibited or compelling to do something whether that is right or
wrong, the prohibition or compulsion must be done by violence.

ascendancy and number 4 already decided to commit rape. However,

offender nuber 4 raped the victim, and offender 3 saw he did not
prevent, in such a case 3 and 4 will be liable for robbery with rape.
