WALA BA NI'Y LEGAL CONSULTANTS ANG ABS-CBN?!!!!!

I saw today’s (August 12, 200 episode of the teleserye, “Iisa pa Lamang” and here is what I have to say.

The Fact that such video (disinheriting Catherine) exists (even if assuming that it is not fake) is of no moment. Article 916 of the New Civil Code provides: “Disinheritance can only be effected through a will wherein the legal cause therefor shall be specified,” while Article 804 of the same, provides that, “Every will MUST BE IN WRITING and executed in a language or dialect known to the testator.”

In other words, in order that the disinheritance be valid, such must be in writing. In the instant case, the disinheritance was merely contained in a video clip (again even assuming that it is not fake), therefore it did not comply with the legal requirements provided for under the New Civil Code, and as such, is of no effect.

ALSO, assuming, for the sake of argument, that the disinheritance is valid, still Catherine cannot be disinherited of his conjugal share. Pursuant to the Family Code, from the moment Martin and Catherine got married, Catherine already owned half (with a few personal properties exempted thereform) of Martin’s properties. This is so since, the parties did not execute a pre-nuptial agreement, in fact in one of the episodes, Martin even confirmed this (that they already owned the properties 50-50). If indeed, Catherine was disinherited, such disinheritance would only involve the conjugal share of Martin. Meaning, Catherine still owned half of the subject properties.

What makes this teleserye even more disappointing, is the fact that Catherine’s friend/lover, Rafael Torralba (Gabby Concepcion) was supposed to be a lawyer. However, he was not able to give Catherine the proper advise. We’ll what do you expect?! Even Rafael (who was supposed to be a lawyer) does not know the law. In the same episode, Rafael threatened to file a case of “Serious Physical Injuries” against those who assaulted Catherine. Being a Lawyer, does he not know the legal requisites in order for a person to be held liable for Serious Physical Injuries?! Di na ko ganahan mag elaborate, kapoy na!

With these blunders (and many more), I could only think of 3 scenarios, and these are the following:
(1) ABS-CBN has no legal consultants;
(2) ABS-CBN has legal consultants but are !n(0mp*+*n+; or
(3) ABS-CBN thinks that its viewers are stupid

I have noticed a number of flaws with Philippine’ Teleseryes but it was only now that I got fed up.

hmmm....

u should know that... catherine is a nice person...

and i dont think nah shes after the money.. all she want is revenge..

i guess the issue here is not the money... and how abs thinks its viewers are stupid..

ur right in all aspects but.. the point is. catherine really dont want the money.. thou she seems nah money na kaayo cya ug nawng pero in the real side.. shes not.

mao ok ra niya nga ma dli ma iyha ang mana or kwarta ni bilbol roco.. ky in the first place she dont love him. ang guilty man siya..

i heard man sad na niana si gabby nga d pwede ky ang k2 movie clip pwede nadaw ma edit.. daghan daw posibility..

hmmm... i guess in terms of acting nice kaayo ang krn na episode... grbeh kaayo ang hinilakay ug ang mga twist sa salida.

and u got Fed up? why.. becuz rather on enjoying a show... u tend to find a flaw.. i guess all show have a flaw.. i mean everything jud... but its up to the viewers jud....

ISODORA MAYNTA MA MATAY NKA SA IISA PA LAMANG SAMOK AU IMONG NAWNG!

and i dont think nah shes after the money

She may not be after the money per se but i'm pretty sure that she's after the power that money can bring in order to exact revenge. In other words, she is still interested with the wealth left by Martin. Sadly for her, she did not get the proper legal advise because Rafael, as created, was simply incompetent.

Still I think that you are totally wrong in saying that catherine is not anymore after the money because from the sneak previews of the future episodes, it seems that she is not happy with being poor again. And I think that if only she had known that the disinheritance was invalid, i'm pretty sure that the events could have gone the other way around (Catherine slapping the wrongful accuser)

and u got Fed up? why.. becuz rather on enjoying a show... u tend to find a flaw..

Yes, because for a long time I have noticed a number of flaws with these "teleseryes", and up until now there has been no change.

I'm used to watching foreign shows and I can't help but compare it with the those made in the Philippines. The details of a number of foreign shows are simply amazing.

I know how to enjoy a show, but i'm just not that gullible.

i guess all show have a flaw.. i mean everything jud...

I agree, but it just so happens that when it come to local channels, I only watch ABS-CBN shows.
