the new title and the reinstatement of the old title. her petition was founded on the theory that the donation to her 3
grandchildren was one "mortis causa" which thus had to comply with the formalities of a will, and since it had not,

Question 1
The fulfillment of the contract is dependent upon chance

Response: Aleatory

Question 2
Three of the following are essential elements of a contract, except

Response: Motive of the parties

Question 3
The intent of the parties to an instrument is "embodied in the writing itself, and when the words are

:
 Response: consent of the contracting parties, object certain and cause or consideration.

Question 5
I. In granting reformation, the remedy in equity is not making a new contract for the parties, but
establishing and perpetuating the real contract between the parties.
II. In reforming instruments, courts do not make another contract for the parties. They merely inquire
into the intention of the parties and, having found it, reform the written instrument (not the contract) in
order that it may express ther real intention of the parties.

Response: Both are true.

Question 6
X (insurer) issued to Y (Taxicab Company) a common carrier accident policy. The heirs of T, a driver
of one of the vehicles covered by the policy, who was killed brought action against X to collect the
proceeds of said policy in view of the failure of X and Y to agree with respect to the amount to be paid
to said heirs.
X claims that the heirs had no cause of action as they had no contrac- tual relation with T.
Issue: Does the policy in question belong to contracts pour autrui?

Response: YES. The policy is a contract pour autrui, meaning it benefits a third party even if they are
not a direct party to the contract. Article 1311 of the Civil Code allows a third party to demand
fulfillment if the contracting parties intended to confer a benefit on them. In this case, the insurance
policy issued by X (the insurer) to Y (Taxicab company) is a contract pour autrui. It covers Y for
liability arising from the death or injury of passengers including the driver. If the driver dies, the insurer
will indemnify the driver’s personal representatives, including the heirs, and may pay indemnity
directly to them.

The policy clearly intends to benefit the driver’s heirs, fulfilling the requirements of contracts pour
autrui. Since the driver contributed to the premiums, the heirs have a direct cause of action against the
insurer. Therefore, the heirs are entitled to enforce the policy and collect proceeds. X’s failure to
recognize this cause of action is erroneous, at the policy was intended to benefit the heirs in case of the
driver’s death.

Question 7
For failure of A (agent) to return the P1,000.00 which P (prin- cipal) gave to A for the purchase of
palay, within 10 days, if not spent for said purpose, P accused A of estafa. Later, P agreed to the

https://dlsud.edu20.org/student_take_quiz_assignment/start/48348136 11/30/24, 8 45 PM
Page 2 of 11
:
 dismissal of the estafa case in consideration of the execution by A of a promissory note for the amount
involved. A still failed to pay the note.
P brought action for the recovery of P1,000.00. A contends that the note is void because the
consideration is the dismissal of the estafa case.
Issue: Is the contention of A tenable?

Response: NO. A’s argument is not tenable. The parties entered into a valid compromise agreement to
settle their dispute per Article 2028 of the Civil Code. P had filed an estafa case against A for failing to
return the agreed-upon money. To resolve the matter, the parties executed a settlement, wherein A
signed a promissory note in favor of P, and P agreed t dismiss the estafa case. The consideration for the
promissory note was the dismissal of the criminal case, which is legally valid under Article 1352 of the
Civil Code. A contract is void only if its cause is unlawful, but here, the cause - settling the criminal
dispute - is entirely lawful. The compromise was made in good faith to avoid prolonged litigation,
thereby validating the consideration for the note. Furthermore, Article 2041 provides that if one party
fails to perform under the compromise, the other may either enforce the agreement or revert to the
original claim. Since A has failed to pay the amount specified in the promissory note, P is entitled to
either enforce the settlement or pursue the original claim for Php1,000.

Question 8
D borrowed P500,000.00 from C. D died without having paid his loan obligation to C. He left S, his
son and heir, properties worth P400,000.00

Response: S is liable to C for P400,000.00.

Question 9
Is a relief which the law grants on the premise that the contract is valid for the protection of one of the
contracting parties and third persons from all injury and damage the contract may cause, or to protect

Question 34
For a consideration, X attached his motorcycle with complete accessories and sidecar to the
transportation line of Y who had the franchise so much so that in the registration certificate, Y appeared
to be the owner.
X failed to claim any insurance indemnity for damages arising from accidents in which the motorcycle
figured because of the failure of Y to comply with his obligation to register the motorcycle.
Issue: Is X entitled to relief from the court?

Response: YES. X is entitled to seek relief from the court for the losses incurred. The contract between
X and Y is valid, as evidence by the consideration involved. X permitted Y to use his motorcycle (plus
its accessories and sidecar) for Y’s transportation business, which implies a reciprocal benefit for X.
The responsibility for registering the motorcycle was clearly placed on Y, as the registration certificate
lists him as the owner. However, his failure to register the motorcycle cause X to lose the opportunity to
claim insurance for accident-related damages. Since Y did not perform this essential task, it amounts to
a breach of his obligation. Article 1167 of the Civil Code provides that when a party fails to perform
their duty, the non-performing party is liable for the costs. In this case, X is entitled to demand that Y

and Y, were already occupying the subject lot and even constructed their house thereon.

After the death of S, his son Z, continued accepting payments from B, X and Y. Despite all those payments made

Question 10
Which of the following is not a valid stage of a contract?

Response: Introduction

Question 11
After the extrajudicial foreclosure by DBP (mortgagee) and sale of the mortgaged lands to it, but within the one (1)
year redemption period, R (mortgagor) entered into a contract with B entitled “Deed of Sale with Assumption of
Mortgage’’ under which R sold the lands to B and the latter assumed the mortgage indebtedness. In another
document, R was given the option to repurchase the property. B took possession of the property, introduced
improvements thereon, and appropriated the produce to himself.
R demanded an accounting of the income of the property, alleging that the true intent of the parties in executing the
contracts in question was to create an equitable mortgage. (see Arts. 1602-1605.)
Issue: What contract was entered into by the parties?

Response: Answer:
The contract entered into by R (mortgagor) and B is an equitable mortgage rather than a true sale with assumption
of mortgage. Under Articles 1602 to 1605 of the Civil Code, certain circumstances indicate that a contract, though
appearing as a sale, is intended merely to secure an obligation. In this case, the presence of these circumstances
supports the conclusion that the agreement between R and B was not an outright transfer of ownership.

First, R retained an option to repurchase the property, which is inconsistent with the concept of an absolute sale.
This demonstrates that the transaction was meant to serve as security for the debt, rather than a final transfer of
ownership. Second, B’s act of taking possession of the property and appropriating its produce without accounting
for it suggests that the possession was incidental to securing the debt, not an act of ownership. Furthermore, the
timing of the transaction within the one-year redemption period after the foreclosure by DBP strongly indicates that
R intended to preserve ownership of the property, and the agreement with B was merely a refinancing arrangement
to fulfill the mortgage obligation.

Legal Basis:
Under Article 1602 of the Civil Code, a contract that appears to be a sale but retains the essential characteristics of
a mortgage—such as the retention of ownership rights or circumstances indicating it is a security arrangement—is
considered an equitable mortgage. Article 1604 further states that these provisions apply even to contracts
purporting to be absolute sales. Therefore, based on these facts and legal principles, the agreement between R and
B is properly classified as an equitable mortgage, and R retains ownership rights subject to the security
arrangement.

Question 12
Salud enters into a contract to sell one (1) hectare of land to Bacolod and agreed to have the price to be determined

Response: The recommended price of Agan is obligatory on both parties even if it is manifestly inequitable.

Question 13
Is a remedy in equity whereby a written instrument is made or construed so as to express or conform to the real

Response: Reformation

Question 14
I. S sold to B in a private instrument his land. Later, B wanted to have the sale registered but registration requires a

II. S sold to B orally his land. After B paid S, he wanted to register the land in his name but he needed a public
instrument of sale. In here, B may compel S to execute the needed public instrument.

Question 15
A contract where both parties are required to do or give something is known as a:

Response: bilateral contract

Question 16
Contracts take effect only between the contracting parties, their assigns and heirs, except in cases where the
obligations and rights arising from the contract are not transmissible by their nature, or by stipulation or provision

Response: conception, birth and consummation.

Question 18
The warranty against hidden defects in a contract of sale is an example of:

Response: natural element.

Question 19

This is known as the principle of:

Response: mutuality of contract

Question 20
One of the stipulations contained in the contract between M Company and its employees is that the company shall

discharged with just one week before the completions if the two-year period.

Question 23

unambigiguous the intent is to be discovered only from the express language of the agreement."

Response: Plain meaning rule or verba legis

Question 24
Which of the following contracts is not required to appear in a public document?

Response: None of the above.

Question 25
For failure of A (agent) to return the P1,000.00 which P (prin- cipal) gave to A for the purchase of palay, within 10
days, if not spent for said purpose, P accused A of estafa. Later, P agreed to the dismissal of the estafa case in
consideration of the execution by A of a promissory note for the amount involved. A still failed to pay the note.
P brought action for the recovery of P1,000.00. A contends that the note is void because the consideration is the
dismissal of the estafa case.
Issue: Is the contention of A tenable?

Response: Answer: No, the contention of A is not tenable. The promissory note executed by A in favor of P was a
valid acknowledgment of A’s obligation to return the P1,000. The dismissal of the estafa case cannot be considered
an illegal consideration, as the promissory note serves to memorialize an existing valid debt.

Under Article 1350 of the Civil Code, consideration must be lawful, and in this case, the note is supported by A’s
duty to return the money initially entrusted to him. The agreement to dismiss the criminal case did not vitiate or
invalidate the obligation to pay the amount.

Furthermore, in People v. Solis (1946), the Supreme Court ruled that a promissory note executed as part of a
compromise does not automatically render it void unless there is clear evidence of coercion or illegal stipulation.

Legal Basis:

Article 1350, Civil Code: "In onerous contracts, the cause is understood to be, for each contracting party, the
prestation or promise of a thing or service by the other."

Response: The contract is rescissible.

Question 41
For a consideration, X attached his motorcycle with complete accessories and sidecar to the transportation line of Y
who had the franchise so much so that in the registration certificate, Y appeared to be the owner.
X failed to claim any insurance indemnity for damages arising from accidents in which the motorcycle figured
because of the failure of Y to comply with his obligation to register the motorcycle.
Issue: Is X entitled to relief from the court?

Response: Answer: Yes, X may be entitled to relief under the principle of quasi-delict (Article 2176 of the Civil
Code) or contractual negligence. Y, who had an obligation to register the motorcycle as part of the agreement,
failed to perform his duty. This breach of obligation directly caused X’s inability to claim insurance indemnity.

Even though Y appeared as the registered owner, the underlying agreement between X and Y makes Y accountable
for any loss resulting from his failure to fulfill his obligations. The court may grant relief to X by compelling Y to
indemnify him for the damages caused by this breach.
Legal Basis:

Article 1170, Civil Code: "Those who in the performance of their obligations are guilty of fraud, negligence, or
delay, and those who in any manner contravene the tenor thereof, are liable for damages."
Article 2176, Civil Code: A quasi-delict arises when an act or omission causes damage to another, even without
contractual relations.
Relevant Jurisprudence: In cases where a party's negligence affects the fulfillment of a contract or an agreement,
they can be held liable for damages arising from their breach of obligation.
Y’s failure to comply with his duty under the agreement makes him liable to X for any resulting losses.

Response: Warranty against eviction.

Question 43
A and B entered into a contract of mortgage. However, as written the document states it is a contract of sale with
right of repurchase, the error due to the fault of the clerk. Hence,

Response: consent of the contracting parties, object certain, cause or consideration and delivery of the object.

motorcycle. Y, as the obligor has the obligation to register the motorcycle, however, Y failed to register

Question 14
After the extrajudicial foreclosure by DBP (mortgagee) and sale of the mortgaged lands to it, but within
the one (1) year redemption period, R (mortgagor) entered into a contract with B entitled “Deed of Sale
with Assumption of Mortgage’’ under which R sold the lands to B and the latter assumed the mortgage
indebtedness. In another document, R was given the option to repurchase the property. B took
possession of the property, introduced improvements thereon, and appropriated the produce to himself.
R demanded an accounting of the income of the property, alleging that the true intent of the parties in
executing the contracts in question was to create an equitable mortgage. (see Arts. 1602-1605.)
Issue: What contract was entered into by the parties?

Response: The contract entered into by R (mortgagor) and B is an equitable mortgage, which is
defined as a transaction that, despite being labeled as a sale, is treated as a mortgage due to the true
intent of the parties involved. Under Article 1602, a contract that purports to be sales maybe presumed
to be an equitable mortgage is certain conditions are met, such conditions may include the price by
grossly inadequate, when the seller retains possession of the property, or when there is a right to
repurchase involved. In this case, the intention of the contract between R and B is not to transfer
ownership but to secure R’s interest in the property while allowing B to assume the mortgage
obligations. Additionally, under Article 1603, contracts purporting to be sales with a right to repurchase
are presumed to be equitable mortgages unless proven otherwise. R’s demand for an accounting of
income from the property and his assertion that the true intent is to create an equitable mortgage and
the fact the B took possession and made improvements does not negates R claim, rather this presents
the obligation of B as a possessor with an obligation similar to mortgage. Therefore, the contract
entered into by R and B is an equitable mortgage rather than a straightforward sale. R may seek
appropriate remedies and demand an accounting of income of the property in B’s possession.

Question 15
X (insurer) issued to Y (Taxicab Company) a common carrier accident policy. The heirs of T, a driver
of one of the vehicles covered by the policy, who was killed brought action against X to collect the
proceeds of said policy in view of the failure of X and Y to agree with respect to the amount to be paid
to said heirs.
X claims that the heirs had no cause of action as they had no contrac- tual relation with T.
Issue: Does the policy in question belong to contracts pour autrui?

Response: Yes. The policy in question belongs to contracts pour autrui. Under Article 1311 states that
if a contract contains a stipulation in favor of a third person, that third person may demand its
fulfillment provided that they communicate their acceptance to the obligor before its revocation. The
insurance policy issued by X (insurer) to Y (Taxicab Company) is a contract pour autrui, thus, this
covers Y for the liabilities arising from death or injury of passengers including their drivers. The heirs

:
of T, a driver of one of the vehicles covered by the policy, has a cause of action against X. Since X is
the insurer, X shall indemnify the heir s of T following the death of T because the policy is intended to
benefit the heirs in case of death. Therefore, the Heirs of T have the right to claim indemnity under the
contract pour autrui being the third person involved.

On March 12, 1987, X drew up a deed of revocation of the donation. Then, she filed a petition for
cancellation of the new title and the reinstatement of the old title. her petition was founded on the
theory that the donation to her 3 grandchildren was one "mortis causa" which thus had to comply with
the formalities of a will, and since it had not, the donation was void.

The donees (X's grandchildren) opposed the petition. In their opposition, they averred that the donation
in their favor was one inter vivos, hence, valid.

Response: The donation in question, though denominated inter vivos, is in truth mortis causa because
in case of doubt relative to a gratuitous contract, the construction must be that entailing "the least
transmission of rights and interests."
