MOTION TO DISMISS

DEFENDANT, by counsel and to this Honorable Court respectfully state that:

1. Defendant is of legal age, Filipino citizens, and resident of 4908 Baler St., Quezon City;
2. Plaintiff is of legal age, Filipino citizens, and resident of No. 1, Rockwell Drive, Quezon City;
3. Under the Rules of Court, the Court acquires jurisdiction over the person of the defendant by the service of summons or by
his voluntary submission to the authority of the court. These requirements have not been complied. Thus, there has been no
service of summons or assuming it has been served, there is defective service thereof upon the defendant, as the action is in
personam and he is residing outside the country.
4. The trial court did not acquire jurisdiction over the subject matter, which is a parcel of land. Plaintiff paid an inadequate filing
fee of only P1,000.00, when the assessed value of the property is P20,000,000, upon which the computation of the filing fee
should have been based, but which was not, precluding the trial from acquiring jurisdiction over the case.
5. In any event, the venue is improperly laid. The land in question is located in Calamba Laguna, but the action has been filed in
Makati.
6. At any rate, defendant paid plaintiff’s claim. Thus, on November 10, 2017, he delivered to plaintiff his car, with Plate No. FEB-
014 and a deed of sale, valued at P10,000,000, copy of which is attached as Annex “1,” with the understanding that the same
would be in payment of defendant’s indebtedness.

WHEREFORE, it is respectfully prayed that this Honorable Court dismiss the complaint for the failure to state a cause of action.
Defendant further prays for such other reliefs as may be just and equitable in the premises.
