COMPLAINT
THE PARTIES
CAUSE OF ACTION
where the defendant was allowed by the plaintiff to stay and live
in the said house and its premises for a period of six (6) months. A
faithful reproduction of the said “Kasunduan” dated February
26, 2014 is hereto attached as Annex “A” to form an integral
part hereof;
6. Not being remiss with her duties as a lessor, the plaintiff has made
several demands for the defendant to vacate the leased house and
its premises, and to pay the outstanding rentals, but the defendant
adamantly refused and failed to comply;
10. On October 22, 2015, a third hearing for the settlement of the
defendant’s obligations was held. In the said hearing, the parties
came to an agreement whereby the defendant was given until
December 15, 2015 to vacate the house and its premises, and to
pay the outstanding rentals. A faithful reproduction of the
Report of the Lupon Tagapamayapa of Barangay Almanza Dos
in Las Piñas City on October 22, 2015 is hereto attached as
Annex “E” to form an integral part hereof;
12. Because of this, the plaintiff was constrained to report with the
Lupon Tagapamayapa of Barangay Almanza Dos in Las Piñas City
the fact that the defendant failed to faithfully abide by and comply
with their agreement. A faithful reproduction of the report of
the Lupon Tagapamayapa of Barangay Almanza Dos in Las
Piñas City stating the fact of the defendant’s non-compliance
with the agreement is hereto attached as Annex “F” to form an
integral part hereof;
17. Considering that the final demand for the defendant to vacate the
subject house and its premises, and for the defendant to pay her
outstanding rentals, was made on January 14, 2016, the plaintiff
has one year from such date, or until January 14, 2017, to file the
instant case;
18. The plaintiff has thus timely filed and commenced this action for
unlawful detainer within the prescriptive period;
DAMAGES
19. In order for the plaintiff to protect her rights and interests, she
engaged the legal services of the undersigned counsel and has
bound herself to pay the amount of TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND
PESOS (P25,000.00) as attorney’s fees plus THREE THOUSAND
PESOS (P3,000.00) per court appearance;
22. As such, for the defendant’s failure and refusal to vacate the
subject property despite repeated demands, the plaintiff is
entitled to the reasonable compensation due as arrears of rent or
as reasonable compensation for the use and occupation of the
premises as damages in the amount of P2,500.00 per month from
the time the defendant’s possession became unlawful until the
final disposition of this case or until the defendant vacates the
subject property.
PRAYER
Other reliefs and remedies as are just and equitable under the
premises are likewise hereby prayed for.
