Good evening everyone. I just would also like to clarify one of the articles in the agreement / contract. It says,
"In the event that unfamiliar circumatances should arise out of, in connection with, or by reason of this Agreement, the parties concerned must consult each other on each occassion and endeavor to exhaust all remedies to resolve their differences. However, should any one of the parties hereunder propose a choice of venue in the event of suit or litigation, the hearing shall be conducted at any District Court in Japan."
"District Court" in the contract are in bold letters.
Please enlighten me.
1. Is it still possible for them (Employer) to file a case against me here in PH? Will the court (here in ph) accept the formal complain though it is clearly stated that the litigation has to be held in Japan?
1.a) are we going to have hearings like in teleseryes?
1.b) What are the possible ways for me to pay the final liquidated training expenses? ( I mean, how will the court decide? Is deduction on my salary (future employer) possible even if it is just enough for me to help my parents and brothers?)
2. If they will file a complain against me in Japan, is it possible for me to receive a subpoena from overseas?
3. How could I answer the subpoena (if from jp) if I am here in ph and financially incapable.? Are there existing laws for cases as such?
4. Having it all said, what are the chances of "me" winning the case?
5. Would the court consider my side (that technical training was not given) if I will show them my Journal (though in nihongo) which proves that what I did there was like what their ordinary factory workers here in ph are doing (considering the fact that I was hired as an engineer) ?
Please. Thank you.
