CRIM 9:
Title Six: CRIMES AGAINST PUBLIC MORALS
Chapter One: GAMBLING AND BETTING
There are 8 crimes against public morals, please
take note public. In one decision of the Supreme Court it
said it is not after the morality or morals of an individual,
so crimes against morals here is not morality of a single
individual.
Chapter one supposed to be gambling and
betting but repealed or amended already by PD 483 and
other special laws. So 195 to 199 are amended, whats
left? Lottery ok, it is a scheme for the distribution of prizes
by chance among persons who have paid or agreed to pay
a valuable consideration for the chance to obtain a prize.
If you buy from a department store and there is so called
lottery or prize, if you do not pay extra prize that is not
gambling, thats not lottery but if you pay extra money
then that is already lottery.
Article 196 there are 4 acts punished.
Importing, selling or distributing in connivance,
possessing with intent to use, selling or distributing
without connivance. PD 483 all concept of gambling it is a
game of chance, meaning if the result depends cheaply or
mainly on chance then it is gambling otherwise it is not.
Forget the old definition of gambling, the new law says
BETTING MONEY OR ANY OBJECT OR ARTICLE OF
VALUE OR REPRESENTATIVE OF VALUE UPON THE
RESULT OF ANY GAME, RACES AND OTHER SPORT
CONTEST. Bisag mo boxing pa si Manny Pacquiao
mupusta ka that is gambling. Kalimti ang chance ug
istrikutuhon daghan mapriso including judges who bet on
boxing. Basketball, mupusta ka that is gambling. No
distinction cuz the law says result of any game, race and
other sports contest.

Article
226.
Removal,
concealment
or
destruction. What is the meaning of removal? It is the
appropriation of the official document; it does not require
that the record be brought out of the premises where it is
kept. It is enough that the record be removed from the
place where it should be and transfer to another place
where it is not suppose to be kept. Destruction means
rendering useless or obliteration of the documents.
Complete destruction not necessary. How about
concealment? It means that the documents are not
forwarded to their destination and it is not necessary that
theyre secreted away in a place where they could not be
found.
Article 227. Officer breaking seal. Mere breaking
of the seal or mere opening of the document could already
bring about infidelity even though no damage has been
suffered by anyone. Remember this is crime against public
interest. What is the reason? Because in breaking the seal
or opening the envelope he violates the confidence or
trust reposed on him. Breaking should not be given a
literal meaning, even if actually the seal was not broken
because the custodian managed to open the parcel
without breaking the seal.
Article 228. Opening of closed documents. If the
opening of closed documents the public officer abstracted
the contents what crime or crimes are committed?
Opening of closed documents, he may also be held liable
for theft if there is intent to gain and there is asportation.
Section Three. Revelation of secrets
Article 229. Revelation of secrets by an officer.
There are two acts punished here; reveling any secrets
known to the offending public officer by reason of his
official capacity. The offender here may also be charged
under R.A. 3019 anti-graft and R.A. 6713 code of conduct
and ethical standards. Number 2 delivering wrongfully
papers or copies of papers of which he may have charged
and which should not be published. Again, the public
officer may also be held liable under 3019 and 6713.
secrets are those which have unofficial or public character,
the revelation of which may prejudice public interest.
Damage is not an essential element. Revealing must be
without authority or justifiable reason. Military secrets
which affect national security the offender may also be
held liable for espionage under RPC.
Article 230. Public officer revealing secrets of
private individual. Secrets here need not be revealed
publicly, consummated if the same are communicated to
another person even in close intimacy. Revelation will not
amount to a crime if the secrets are contrary to public
interest or the administration of justice.
Article 231. Open disobedience. Offender is a judicial or
executive officer, there is a judgment or decision or order
of superior authority made within the scope or jurisdiction
of the superior authority and issued with all legal
formalities then offender without any legal justification
openly refused to execute said judgment, decision or
order which he is duty bound to obey. But the refusal
must be clear, manifest, decisive, intentional and must not
be confused with omission arising from oversight or
inadvertence or mistake.
Chapter Six: OTHER OFFENSES OR IRREGULARITIES
BY PUBLIC OFFICERS
kamo diha fire station pardo tabangi ninyo ning pagpawng sa sunod diri sa pasil unya ni ingon dayon ang taga
pardo, wa pa man mi mahuman sa tong-its sir, tiwason
una namo. Total mga taga pasil maayo ng mahurot ug
sunog diha aron malimpyo. That is a case refusal of
assistance, the law says he failed to lent his cooperation
towards public service. Sunog sa pasil unya nanawag ang
residente sa pasil namaligyag shabu, tawagan niya ang
pardo police station way
tubag, tawagan niya nag
bumbero tubag, naay sunog diri tabangi mi, ah di mi
mutubang ninyo namaligya mog shabu diha. Is the
bumbero there in pardo liable? The answer is no, because
the law says competent authority demands, and ni
demand sa public service competent authority. Ang
namaligya ug shabu di mana competent authority, bisag
namaligya pana ug buwad mao ra gihapon because he is
not a competent authority. Another example of refusal of
assistance, pulis ka and then theres a subpoena for you
to appear, you failed and refused to appear because you
favored the defense that is a case involving refusal of
assistance for his failure to cooperate towards the
administration of justice. Is the crime of refusal committed
only in connection with administration of justice? No.
please take note in the UST notes, the request must come
from one public officer to another meaning, competent
authority. The public officer should be under obligation by
reason of his office to render the required assistance to
administration of justice or any public service. Damage is
not an element of the crime but serious damage may
aggravate the imposition of penalty.
Article 234. Refusal to discharge elective office.
Dili ni mahitabo sa Pilipinas, ma elected ka unya dili ka mo
serve, mo serve man gali ang wa ma elected. Refusal to
discharge, offender is elected by popular election, refuses
to be sworn in or to discharge the duties of said office. Di
gyud manumpa kay ug manumpa siya basig ma rebelde
siya unya mo assist siya sa rebelde, ma accused siya ug
disloyalty. No legal motive for such refusal, meaning if you
have a legal ground to refuse then you are not liable
under 234.
Article 235. Maltreatment of prisoners. Of course
the offender is a public officer or employee, he has under
his charge a prisoner or detention prisoner, he maltreat
such prisoner either of the following manner: over doing
in the correction or handling of prisoner, maltreating such
prisoner to extort confession or to obtain information from
the prisoner. Traffic policeman, sige siyag wara-wara unya
bisag stop ni aging jeep perti rabang kusuga unya
nalagsikan pa gyud siya sa tubig, gukod niya wa gyud ka
apas. Nadakpan gi da sa jail, tua sa jail katong ni kuan
katong ni agi sa imo diha nalapuk ka kay nalagput ang
lapuk sa imo. Ingon siya maayo kay tua sa jail, so katong
traffic policeman ni sud sa jail gikulata katong driver is
that maltreatment of prisoner? The answer is no even if
he maltreated the prisoner, because the law says the
prisoner is under his charge or rather he has under his
charge a prisoner or detention prisoner. Traffic policeman
man siya di ba? Kinsay may in charged sa prisoner? Ang
jail warden ug jail guards, sila maoy liable kung
mangulata sila. What crime if any did he commit? Physical
injuries, physical injuries only. Maltreatment does not only
mean physical maltreatment, dili kay physical lang ning
maltreatment, by over doing himself in the correction of
handling prisoner or detention prisoner. Inflicting cruel and
humiliating manner or punishments in a cruel or
humiliating manner. Ug palukduhon na nimo ug hugaw sa
baka unya pasuroy-suroyon nimo, unya pa singgitsinggitun ug balot, that is maltreatment of prisoner. Then
maltreating such prisoner to extort confession or to obtain
information from the prisoner. When does a person
becomes a prisoner? If he is already booked in the station
unya mo piano na siya kanang finger print. When a person
is maltreated by a public officer who has actual charge to
prisoners
how
many
crimes
maybe
committed?
Maltreatment and physical injuries. Pananglitan ang
prisoner gikulata sa jail guard, perting gyung bun-uga
black and blue, unya subra sa kulata gisi-gisi pa jud ang
sinina. How many crimes are committed? 3, ngano man?
in addition to maltreatment, he also liable for the material
consequence, meaning physical injuries and damage to
property. 2 crimes are committed maltreatment under 235
and physical injuries. Maltreatment and physical injuries
may not be complexed kay in addition to man, in addition
