COUNTER AFFIDAVIT

Ask ko lang po Attorneys kung ano yung manyayare ngayon kung hindi po nasagot yung counter affidavit ng respondent? Thanks!

it depends on what is written. i would always file a reply-affidavit and not leave it to chance. if not, then the prosecutor will resolve the complaint based on what was submitted, but it has been common to hold it against a party not to respond.

Thank you so much!

anu po ba sunod after mkapag pasa ng counter affidavit?

complainant will file reply to your counter

When is the need to file counter affidavit?

based on the sched given by the prosecutor

I received notice of araignment from the prosecutor. It's not said in the note. Then i already attended the araignment and were on pre trial on may 3. I still dont know if i should do counter.

To attyLLL: Sir question lang po. Pwede po ba ako gumawa ng counter affidavit kahit walang lawyer? Di ko po kasi afford mag hire ng lawyer. And san ko po ibabase yung counter affidavit? kasi po walang kasama na copy ng complain-affidavit yung subpoena na nareceive ko. Also, can I ask ba the fiscal for settlement nalang para maayos na po since RIRI-DTP po ang case? Thanks!

yes, even without a lawyer. you can get a copy at the first hearing.

ask lang po,...kailangan po bang magbayad ng acceptance fee pag nag file nga counter affidavit besides the fee for the attorney's fee?

Good day! Ask ko lang po:nagcomplain kami sa NBI ng estafa/swindling laban sa principal namin..kapareha po ito noong kina rasuman at sa Amans na nag invest kami ng pera at pinangakuan ng profit pero hindi namin natanggap.Nang gusto na naming bawiin ang pera namin, hands-off na sila kasi sabi nila biktima rin daw sila. Ngayon, yung kaso namin ay hindi pa naiforward sa City Prosecutor pero nag issue na ng counter-affidavit yung principal namin at ibnigay sa isa naming co-teacher. Ano po ba ang implications nito sa sumbong namin?

you can file a reply to his counter affidavit

@attylll you said that we file counter on the sched gven by the prosecutor, klan po xa ngbbgay ng sched? is it on the hearing n?kasi nakapagstatement n po yung complainant sa judge. whats next?

@attylll: Good day po, ask ko lang po nagpasa po kasi ako nang counter affidavit ko nung May 2011 pa pero until now wala na po akong nabalitaan about sa Complaint sa akin. Ano po bang ibig sabihin nun? at ano po ang pwede kong gawin? Salamat po.

Good Day Everyone,

Nag file ako ng Estafa case sa city prosecutor.. pinadalhan ng subpoena ang respondent, pero hindi nag reply (walang counter affidavit or controverting evidence), then eventually lumabas ang Resolution, "dismissed for lack of merit". paano nangyari yun? ang ginawa namin, nag file kami ng Motion for Reconsideration (MR).. that was last month.

kailan ko ba malalaman ang result sa MR? kung denied or what.

sasagot pa ba ang respondent sa MR namin? ni wala nga counter affidavit.

sa pakiwari namin, may pagkakamali na ang prosecutor when dissmissing the complaint (Resolution), dahil nag serve na sya ng subpoena. meaning may probable cause na nakita against the respondent. tama po ba? nakasaad din eto sa MR.. "When this Honorable Office sent the subpoena to the respondent, it presupposes that there exists probable cause against the latter, otherwise, this case would have been dismissed outright pursuant to Section 1 (b) of R.A. 5180 (As amended by P.D. 911)."

totoo kaya ang haka-haka na baka nadukot ang complaint ko or nabayaran ang fiscal?

ano kaya posible ko pang gawin kung ma deny ang MR ko?

thanks

Hi attorney ano po ba a ibang sabihin ng Rearrangement firts hearing ko.yun po ang ang babasahan na kung guilty or not guilty ..pero wala pa po akong counter affidavit na submit.

Sabi pa ng abogado kailangan ko daw mag submit ng counter affidavit before 10 days ng reciept.
