I, Daniel Padilla, Filipino, of legal age with address at 12 Chico

sworn to in accordance with law, do hereby depose and state that:
1. I am the respondent in the above-captioned case for slight physical
injuries file by one Alden Richards;

motorcycle as per our agreement that I am free to use the said vehicle
in times of family emergency;

Richards got into a fight and sustained physical injuries as a
consequence thereof;

the foregoing and to refute the allegations of Alden Richards.
