Court of Appeals, 174 SCRA 484; National Grain Authority vs. Immediate Appellate Court, 157 SCRA 380) TORRENS SYSTEM SECRET IS TO FIND THE KEY THAT WILL OPEN THE DOOR TO THE TORRENS AXIOMS (MAXIM, DOCTRINES AND PRINCIPLES OF THE TORRENS SYSTEM) WHICH ARE CULLED FROM LANDMARKED DECESIONS OF THE SUPREME COURT. G. R. No. 103727 AND G.R. No. 108496, LATE SAN PEDRO STEBAN. A TORRENS TITLE CANNOT BE USED AS A SHIELD FOR FRAUD OR FOR ENRICHING A PERSON AT THE EXPENSE O OTHER. (See: Vda. De Recinto vs. Inciong, 77 SCRA 196.) THE TORRENS SYSTEM WAS NOT DESIGNED TO SHIELD AND PROTECT ONE WHO HAD COMMITED FRAUD OR MISREPRESENTATION AND THUS HOLDS TITLE IN BAD FAITH. (Walstrom vs. Mapa, Jr., 181 SCRA 431) THE TORRENS SYSTEM ONLY PROTECTS A TITLE HOLDER IN GOOD FAITH, AND CANNOT BE USED AS SHIELD FOR FRAUD AND CHICANERY. DECIET IN IS NOT BE COUNTENANCED; DUPLICITY IN NOT TO BE REWARDED. (Philippine Commercial & Industrial Bank vs. Villava, 48 SCRA 31) THIS TRUISM IS IN ACCORD WITH THE LATIN WORDS MAXIM NEMO POTEST PLUS JURIS AD ALIUM TRANSFERRE QUAM IPSE HABET. NO ONE CAN TRANSFER A GREATER RIGHT TO ANOTHER THAN HE HIMSELF HAS. (See Mathay vs. Court of Appeals, 295 SCRA 556. Citing Calalang vs. Register of Deeds of Quezon City, 231 SCRA 88.)

(NOW THE PHILIPPINES) CREATION OF SUPREME COURT IN THE PHILIPPINES IN 1580 INDEED, LONG BEFORE HAND OWNERSHIP OF THE NOBLE CLAN, THE TAGEANTALLANO CLAN, OVER THE ARCHIPELAGO HAD BEEN CONCRETELY RECTIFIED UPON THE CREATION OF SUPREME COURT IN 1580.

THE EVOLUTION OF THE TAGEAN CLAN (ROYAL CLAN) INTO TALLANO CLAN SERVED AS CATALYST IN UPRISING THEIR CLAIMS IN THE ADVENT OF SPANISH ERA 400 YEARS AGO IN THE ISLANDS OF LUZON, THAT THE ELDEST SON OF RAJAH SOLIM PRINCE LACAN TAGEAN HIS SON PRINCE JULIAN MACLEOD (TALLANO) WHO WAS MARRIED TO A BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER OF A SIX SULTAN OF BRUNEI, PRINCES AMINAH KIRAM, HER FATHER SULTAN ABDUL KAHAR AND WHOSE FAMILY NAME WAS BAPTIZED FROM TAGEAN INTO A SPANISH SOUND NAME TALLANO UNTIL SUCH TIME WHEN FOREIGN INTERVENTION TOOK PLACE LIKE THE BRITISH ROYAL GOVERNMENT WHICH STATED IN 1761, HAD SUCCESSFULLY LIBERATED THE FILIPINO PEOPLE FROM THE PROSECUTION, INHUMANE TORTURING AND DISPOTIC AUTOCRACY FROM THE SPANIARDS ON OCTOBER 14, 1764 ENDED.

ELIZABETH OVERBECK MACLEOD OF AUSTRIA. TORRENS TITLE CANNOT BE DEFEATED EVEN BY ADVERSE, NOTORIOUS POSITION OR BY LACHES VERY CLEARLY, A TITLE ONCE REGISTERED UNDER TORRENS SYSTEM OF LAND REGISTRATION CAN NOT BE DEFEATED, BY ADVERSE, OPEN AND NOTORIOUS POSSESSION OR BY LACHES BY TRADITION. REGISTERED TITLE UNDER THE TORRENS SYSTEM CAN NOT BE DEFEATED BY PRESCRIPTION. IT IS A UNIVERSAL ACCEPTANCE, THE TITLE OF THE LAND ONCE REGISTERED UNDER TORRENS SYSTEM, IS SUFFICIENT NOTICE TO THE WHOLE WORLD BECAUSE SUCH ACTION IS AN ACTION IN REM. ALL CONCERN INCLUDING THE GOVERNMENT AND ITS AGENCIES SHOULD TAKE NOTICE OF THIS RULE, THAT NO ONE CAN PLEAD IGNORANCE BY REASON OF REGISTRATION. WHAT MANY TIMES THE LAW HAD DECLARED AND BY THE OPINION OF KNOWN LUMINARIES AND JUDGES OF PHILIPPINE COURTS IN REGARD TO THE ACQUISITION OF TITLE TO REAL PROPERTY BY ADVERSE POSSESSION IS NOT APPLICABLE TO THE LAND, ITS TRUE OWNERS NEVER RESISTED TO ASSERT THEIR OWNERSHIP OVER THE LAND EQUIPPED WITH REGISTERED LAND TITLE UNDER TORRENS SYSTEM IN CONSONANCE WITH THE PROVINSIONS OF THE LAND REGISTRATION ACT 496, WHICH WAS CLEARLY CITED IN A CASE, (Cooperation de PP Agustinos vs. Crisostomo, 32 Phil 427 (1915). THE LAW HAVE ADMITTED SAY THAT NOT EVEN THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT MAY ACQUIRE THE LAND IN QUISITION OWNED BY PRIVATE PERSON BY WAY OF PRESCRIPTION EVEN IF TO THE EXTENT OF TAKING THE LAND FOR ROADS AND HIGHWAYS OF INFRASTRUCTURES BY REASON OF EMINENT DOMAIN, THE TITLE THEREOF COULD NOT BE TRANSFERRED TO THE GOVERNMENT, WHICH HELD UNDER THE CASE OF (Herrera vs. Auditor General 102, Phil, 875 (1958) and in Alfonso s. Pasay City Government, 106 Phil. 1017 (1960) THAT SUCH REGISTERED PROPERTY CAN NOT BE LOST TO THE GOVERNMENT BY PRESCRIPTION AND THE OWNER IS ENTITLED TO BE PAID O THE PRICE THEREOF AS PRESCRIBED BY OUR 1935 CONSTITUTION SECTION 2 OF ARTICLE 111 (BILL OF RIGHTS).

EVEN IF THE PRESCRIPTION LAW OVER THE REGISTERED LAND UNDER TORRENS SYSTEM CAN NOT GUARRANTEE IT ALL OUT FROM EVIL ATTEMPS, STILL THE COURT REMAIN PROUDLY BELIEVE ON ITS UNCOWED DETERMINATION AND JUDGEMENT THAT THE RULE MUST STAND VIGOROUSLY AGAINST ANYONE NEVERTHELESS HOW PAINFUL IT MAY SEEM, FOR THE SAKE OF SOUND STABILITY OF OUR LAND REGISTRATION SYSTEM AND FOR SOUND JUDICIAL SYSTEM, THE B.L.P. FOUNDATION WILL STAND, FACE AND FIGHT NEVERTHELESS SUCH ABUSIVE LAWS, UNLAWFUL CONDUCTS AND ACTS ORCHESTATED BY THE OLIGARCH GOVERNMENT LEADERS OF THIS GENERATION. THE B.L.P. FOUNDATION, MAINTAINED THE DOCTRINE THAT THE REGISTERED OWNER UNDER THE TORRENS SYSTEM HAS AN ABSOLUTE RIGHT TO RECOVER POSSESSION OF THE REGISTERED PROPERTY IS HIGHLY EQUALLY IMPRESCRIPTIBLE, WHILE POSSESSION OVER THE LAND IS ONLY A CONSEQUENCE OF OWNERSHIP, THEREBY, IT SHOULD BE LIKEWISE UNAVAILING AGAINST THE LATTERS HEREDITARY SUCCESSORS, BECAUSE ACTUALLY THEY MERELY STEP INTO THE SHOES O THE DECENDENT BY OPERATION OF THE LAW UNDER THE TORRENS SYSTEM. SEE (Stun, et al vs. Nuez, et al, 97 Phil. 762 (19550).
