12 Flr. Raffles Tower, Edades Ave. Makati City, Philippines RE: ANSWER TO DEMAND FOR COLLECTION OF PAYMENT FOR KAHIT SAAN RESTAURANT, INC. Dear Atty. Dimaculangan: This refers to your letter dated 5 October 2019 demanding payment of penalty relative to the alleged delay of renovation works with your establishment located at 830 Donada St. Pasay City, amounting to TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY THOUSAND PESOS (Php 270,000.00) as incurred penalty. Please be informed that as per paragraph 8 of Section 2: Obligations of Kahit Saan Restaurant, Inc, in the service contract entered and signed by your company and my client, it is provided that the Second Party, Kahit Saan Restaurant, Inc., shall conduct a final inspection upon the completion of the renovation works at your establishment located at 830 Donada St. Pasay City. Further, paragraph 9 of the same contract provides that the renovation shall be deemed completed and/or finish upon the final approval of the second party. On 28 January 2016, JEUC Construction Firm sent the first notice requesting your party to conduct initial inspection and another notice sent 1 February 2016 as final notice requesting final inspection of completion, both received by Ms. Elma Dimaculangan, your daughter and of legal age and capacity both on the respective dates as per courier receipt records of LBC. JCF however did not receive any reply for your company nor instituted any communication to conduct the said inspection In order to complete the said contract. In this connection, JCF will not provide payment for such demand for penalty considering that the renovation was completed on time and the cause of the said delay based on the breach of the abovementioned contract is the failure of your company to conduct the necessary inspection and sign the acceptance of completion of project on time. You may speak with our firm for the details of this matter and our party is prepared to furnish you with the pertinent proofs and documentation for your perusal.
Very truly yours,

Unit 10, 10th Flr. The Fort Legend Tower 31st St. Cor. 3rd Ave. Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City RE:
ANSWER TO DEMAND FOR CHILD SUPPORT
Dear Atty. Reyes:
This refers to your demand letter dated 5 November 2016 asking for a monthly support of SEVENTY THOUSAND PESOS each month from my Client, Mr. Jonathan Belandrez, in support of their common child. I am writing to you to inform you that my client has no intention of abandoning his duties with your common child. However, the financial support demanded by your client is unjust considering that the common child remains under shared custody of your client and Mr. Belandrez. As per the testimony of my client, since their separation in 26 September 2015, the child has remained under custody of both parents to which my client claims to look after the child on weekdays as compared to the weekends where the child spends time with your client. Please note that the child has spent more time with my client, thus conferring that financial support spent by my client is more than of your client. Though my client do not intend to cut his support, we are proposing that instead of SEVENTY THOUSAND PESOS of financial support should be cut down to a more reasonable and equitable amount. My client therefore promises to shoulder only haft of the demanded support amounting to THIRTY FIVE THOUSAND PESOS. Our firm looks forward to your favorable response to this offer. Very truly yours, ATTY. JOSEF ELVIN U. CAMPOS Legal Counsel

ATTY. ROSE PATIO
Unit 10, 10th Flr. Grand Tower 31st St. Cor. 3rd Ave. Manila, Philippines RE:
ANSWER TO DEMAND FOR UNLAWFUL DETAINER
Dear Atty. Patio:
This refers to your letter demanding my client to immediately vacate the premises of his current residence in view of his alleged failure to pay rent. As per testimony of my client, his failure to pay for the rent was due to the absence of neither notice nor verbal notification relative to the payment of rent. In the instance that you have mentioned in your letter, the notice which was alleged received by my client was untruthful considering that on the date mentioned, my client was not staying in the said premise. Moreover, my client was at her hometown in Batac, Ilocos Norte, taking care of his bed-ridden mother, thus it is physically impossible for her to be present in the said date as your client claims. In addition to this, during the time your client claimed to have sent the said prior notice, his nephew who is a minor, who presumably received the notice, failed to transmit the said notice, if it were true. With this considerations, my client is requesting an extension of the eviction notice and shall not pay for any penalty fee incurred for the abovementioned grounds. Very truly yours, ATTY.
