DECISION WITH COMPROMISE AGREEMENT

With the blessings of our Supreme Doing with His
judicial enhancement over the victim of injustices and
greatest land grabbing scandals, the Republic of the
Philippines failed to deviate from entering with the heirs of
Prince Julian Macleod Tallano for a Separate Decision with
Compromise Agreement. But to settle once and for all the
issue of ownership over the land under OCT No.T-01-4
together with the reconstitution of lost owner and the
duplicate copies of its original WAS A Motion filed by the
Republic of the Philippines and, including the return of
precious metals and stones consisting of 617,500 metric tons
of gold and 500,000 pieces of 10 carat diamonds to the
Royal family is another Motion filed by the herein intervenor
that needs to be resolved under the same Sala that originally
under old case LRC/Civil Case No. 997-P but now, on the
Motion of the Republic of the Philippines to avoid conflicting
of hearing dates of two (2) Cases, under the same subject
matter, a consolidation of original Case LRC/Civil Case No.
997-P into LRC/Civil Case No 3957-P has been submitted
and impleaded. But we seek the truth and nothing but the
truth that this Honorable Court has come to intervene where
the succor of the Magistrate of justice for equity and
vindication by the untainted facts had necessitate this
providential circumstances in as much as its paramount
object to secure the weak and exalted the victims of
oppression for the unmolested true spirit of justice and its
virtue for the deserving litigant.
Indeed, in the findings of Justinian, Inst. B.1, tis; Co;

2 n d Inst. 56, justice is the constant and perpetual disposition
to render to every man his due. It is the conformity of our
actions and our will to the law but it should be commutative
for which that virtue whose object is to render to everyone
what belongs to him, as nearly as may be, or that which
governs contracts. Yet, justice needs to be distributive as
well, that virtue whose object it is to distribute rewards and
punishments to each one according to his merit, observing a
just proportion by comparing one person or fact with another so
that neither equal persons have unequal things nor unequal
person things equal. Justice, in specific parlance, is the
greatest interest of man on earth. It is the ligament that holds
civilized nations together, for, it consists simply in letting
everyone enjoy the rights that he has acquired by virtue of

the laws. And, this must be enforced accordingly in the case
at bar, otherwise, justice under this regime is inutile if not
dead. Similarly, this remains precarious to our political,
social and economic stability as well and, in toto, an
obstruction to this nations progress and stability.
In a democratic institution, the right to property is a

fundamental natural, inherent and inalienable right. Clearly,
it is never of ex gratia from the legislature, rather ex debito
from the duly constituted fundamental law of the state, the
Constitution. Indeed, it never owe its origin to the
Constitution which secure it for it existed foremost before
them. In several circumstances, it characterized judicially as
a sacred right, the protection of which is one of the
paramount objectives of the government.
The constitutionally protected right of private property is

not, however, an absolute right and it is subject to justifiable
restraints and mandated regulations instituted by the legislature
or ordained by the said fundamental law. It is subject to the
police power of the state and to constitutional order on social
justice, than land reform or equitable distribution of wealth is
very good example when it has been implemented within the
tenet of the constitutional policy of the government, because,
within that rights, the right to property is the right to acquire,
hold, enjoy, possess,
manage,
insure
and
improve said
property, as well as the right to devote property to any

lawful use.
But it is so defeating to live within this allege democratic

nation where the present administration capitalizes said glorious
objectives but actually indirectly disenfranchising the
constitutional rights of the Tagean- Tallano clans from their real
properties by distorting the true record of the Royal clan in the
LRC defeating their ownership of the land they gained out of
their hard labor and more than 4 centuries of arm struggles
against the Spanish government and abusive officials of the
Republic that only to find out their ownership right over the said
property consisting of 169,912,500 hectares of plains, mountains,
forests and seas evidenced by Land Tile OCT No. T-01-4, Annex A
to Annex A-1 to A-19 that had been issued by the Royal
Government of England, thru the Office of the Royal Audiencia
then by the British Governor to the Philippines Downsone Drake,
is lawful within the bound of the Land Registration Act 496 after
the same subject land its ownership had been settled in a court
of proper jurisdiction by the Land Registration Court which was
ended on October 3, 1904,under a Case CLRO 475, which caused
the issuance of Decree 297 and was registered in favor of Rajah
Lacan (Tagean) Tallano, who was married to Princess Rowena
Ma. Elizabeth Overbeck Macleod of Austria, and eventually to
their son, Prince Julian Macleod Tallano (Tagean) who was
married to Princess Aminah Kiram of the Sultanate of Sulu, after
another court battle in the Cadastral Court in accordance
with
the law
of Cadastral
Act 2259 which was
ended on March 14, 1914, had been promulgated in favor of Prince

Julian Macleod Tallano against unlawful claimants, Don
Hermogenes Rodriguez and heirs declaring Court Ruling in a Land
Registration Case No. 571, is null and void ab initio because
proceedings under said Land Registration Case 571 had failed to
substantiate the jurisdictional requirements and valid
jurisprudence, besides, it was proven that the ownership rights of
Don Hermogenes Rodriguez merely derived from fraudulent
documents, the lease agreement from the Tagean-Tallano clan had
been diverted into Certificate of Award from the Spanish
government, yet, it can be precluded as valid ownership Land Title
because, long before the Spanish government arrived here in the
Philippines, the Island had and has been in actual possession of
the Royal family, thru their predecessor in interest, King Luisong
Tagean. Besides, finally OCT No. 01-4 had been issued to the
Tagean-Tallano clan not to the Rodriguez due to a conflicting
information and evidences they presented using the reward
certificate issued by the Spanish government. The alleged Court
Decision dated November 6, 1911 by the Court of First Instance of
Manila is a hoax judgment because
it was then the Land
Registration Court that has exclusive jurisdiction over the Lands

Registration Case and not the CFI, and that the plan the Rodriguez
heirs had been using could be found in Roxas and Iloilo City,
Annex B and C not in Manila, whatsoever.
Furthermore, on the Sworn Manifestation of LRC

Administrator Antonio Noblejas, he specifically explained that
the title-form used in the issuance of allege OCT 369
is from the Land Registration Form No. 1, yet, in 1907, the year
the alleged Land Title is dated, the so called GLRO was not yet
born for use, it construed the said GLRO Form No. 1 was not in
existence yet.
Again, the OCT 369 in the name of Don Hermogenes

Rodriguez, was been issued by late Judge S. del Rosario as CFI
Judge of Rizal patently fabricated from the fraudulent OCT issued in
the name of Francisco Manajan y Torrente also issued by Judge S.
del Rosario as a CLR Judge. And that the allege CLR Case No.
386,Manila, divulged that the decree issued was Decree No. 160 not
Decree 297, because Decree 160 was issued on March 19, 1904 and
not March 8, 1907, that under the said CLR Case No.386, Decree
160 was OCT No. 140 not OCT 369 was issued in the Registry of
Deeds in Manila, it covers only one (1) parcel of land located in
Tondo, Manila with an area of 354.03 sq. m.
On the part of OCT No. 01-4, with Decree 297, CLR Case No.
475, the same were issued in the name of Prince Lacan Acuna
Tagean Tallano on October 3, 1904 after compliance of the LRA 496
requirements embracing the whole archipelago but was fraudulently
deleted and distorted over the land in Cavite alone instead of the
whole Island as could be found in Record Book of Decree, Book 1
and was distorted in the name of Manuel Ruiz y Javier instead
lawfully to Prince Julian Macleod Tallano. That the allege Plan
No.11-4810, covering 3 parcels of land in the municipality of Sagay,
Negros Occidental not in San Dionisio and Ibayo, Paranaque
where Nicolas Biones and Laureana Vargas were applicants,
while that Plan II-4812 covered a parcel of land situated in

Barrio Tinampaan, Cadiz, Negros Occidental not in Paranaque;
Province of Rizal; while that Plans 11-4813 was merely inserted
as part of the Plan in CLR Case 9002, and said parcel of land
consists of 3,807 square meters situated in Calle Zmart,
Municipality of Iloilo and was surveyed by G. & M. Mendez.
LRC Administrator attested in his Sworn Affidavit and

Manifestation that all II-4810, II-4811, II-4812 and II-4813
found no existing survey record in the Record Management
Division of the Bureau of Lands and Forestry.
This Court has observed the blueprint pattern of

clandestine land grabbing by the allege-claiming to be land
owners which were derived from the National Government thru
its instrumental agencies, the Bureau of Lands and Forestry, the
Land Registration Commission in conspiracy of the officials of
Building Permit Bureau of the Department of Public Work and
Highway and by the local government officials and with
participation of some Register of Deeds in the City and
Provinces where the lands are situated. These are where the
sacred role of the government must have to be exercised for the
protection of the constitutional rights of its citizenry. Yet, very
clearly, that land grabbing scheme massively laundered icing by
socialized housing programs, urban and agricultural land reform
of the government in connivance with the developers,
sometimes in the pretext of National Government infrastructure
program is a silent confiscation of real properties of the private
persons, particularly to the damage of the Tagean-Tallano

family who lawfully own the vast of land here in Greater Manila
Area suburbs.
By these circumstances where the National Government

arrogantly launched its clandestine confiscation of private
properties, movable and immovable, it is hard to admit that
there has no violation of Due Process. Actually, violation of it is
presently in serious offense of the National Government for
grand design of its cohorts depriving the Constitutional Mandate
of Section 1 and Section 2 of Article 3 of our 1935 Constitution,
directly defeating the real substance of Due Process here,
namely:
1. To prevent improper governmental encroachment against

an individuals life, liberty and property;
2. To prevent arbitrary exercise of government powers;
3. To prevent unjustified confiscation of private property.
Our great Senator Diokno eloquently explained the

relevant objects of due process; Quote:
The requirement must be directly intended to have the same effect
against legislative power, that is, to secure the citizens against
arbitrary deprivation of his constitutional right, whether relevant to
his life, his liberty, or his property. It is an absolute limitation
toward arbitrary power and a guarantee against abusive legislation
requiring that the law shall not be unreasonable, arbitrary or
capricious in character and or objective should have a real and
10
substantial purpose and effect to the object sought to be attained.

The supreme intention of the guarantee is the protection of the
individual from the arbitrary implementation and execution of
powers of the government, undisturbed and with genuine
established principles of private rights and distributive justice.
Unquote: Our Great Senator lent his judicial wisdom

relevant to this proceedings, where coercive influence from the
authority had intended to inflict against the true essence of
justice; particularly, in the case at bar where substantial
evidences of the heir of the late Prince Julian Macleod Tallano
backing up their ownership interest over the subject land and
has been meritoriously adopted from the National Government
evidences and position paper could not be subsided by
technical maneuver of the Solicitor General and, obviously, by
mixed influence of the Executive Order, Proclamation and
Letter of Instructions, allowing its cohort developer,
specifically Private Development Corporations of the Philippines
who bulldozed the big track of land both the north and south
of Manila for the proposed expressway, where thousands of
mango trees were uprooted and destroyed, the Pilar Village
Corporation who massively bulldozed portion of Quezon City
where the ten thousands of mango trees where destroyed for
the government pretext Housing Projects which said projects of
the Pilar Village Corporation could be magnified almost in
Greater Manila Area and that the Malacanang Palace official
conspirator, certain Bonifacio Regalado who arrogantly
bulldozed big track of land on the east, north, and west
11
portion of Quezon City, where hundred thousands of mango

trees were destroyed and that its cohorts Manny Villar and
Company Real estate proposed housing projects in
Muntinglupa, Taguig, Paranaque and Las Pinas, where half a
million mango trees were bulldozed and destroyed. Then the
direct cohort and oligarch Real Estate Developers of the Higher
Officials of the Palace, the Ortigas and Company, who raped
the original view of San Juan leaving destroyed thousands of
mango trees simply to be replaced by the proposed shopping
center and Executive Village in the said Green hills, depriving
the interest of the late Don Juan Ejercito and his heirs; that
Harry Stonehill mess who conspired with some Malacanang
officials before, who destroyed half a million of mango trees in
San Pedro, Laguna only for the elite Housing Projects and who
attempted for the restoration of the war widely damaged
Manila Bay for self interest of the land owner, the TageanTallano family. And the Malacanang cohorts oligarch
Developers in Marikina, who attempted to land grab some
1,500 hectares of land situated in Parang, Marikina, Rizal own
by the family of Dona Lourdes Tuazon Arroyo who bought from
the real owner, Don Esteban Tallano, close friend of ExPresident Diosdado Macapagal; and particularly that Ayala
Corporation who arbitrarily developed the Forbes Park and the
Bell Air Village in Makati, are, as aforementioned above, direct
denial of due process, awarding the lands to these developers
without the mercy of the impartial judge.
12
Mr. Justice Jose P. Laurel must have condemned the

conspirators in the government, if ever he has been living as
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court up to this time. Because he
once said that if accused is not tried by an impartial judge, the
pledge of due process becomes a myth and the trial is reduced
to nothing but a useless formality, an idle ceremony. Mr.
Justice Laurel continued: If a judge had made up his mind to
convict even innocence would not suffice as a defense.
Unquote: Similarly, the moro-moro court proceedings in

this Sala under LRC/Civil Case No.997-P against Don Esteban
Benitez Tallano and Prince Lacan Acuna Tagean Tallano, the
living heir of the late Prince Julian Macleod Tallano
contemplated by some government officials in Malacanang in
conspiracy of these developers who managed the validation of
their fictitious Land Titles particularly this OCT 333 of Bonifacio
Regalado its Decree No.1141 has been found covering land in
Floridablanca, the OCT 735 of Don Mariano Severino Tuazon,
and that OCT 632 own by Eulalio Ragua, that OCT 730 own by
Piedad Estate, that OCT 614, OCT 333, OCT 291, and that OCT
820 own by Patricia Tiongson and by the National Government,
and all OCT its numbers from OCT No. 100,000 had been
declared non-bankable due to their fraudulent characteristics,
and null and void ab initio by my predecessor in this Court on
July 14, 1964 by virtue of the Petition filed by the Republic of
the Philippines in favor of its allege predecessor, late Prince
Lacan(Tagean)Tallano under LRC Civil Case No.997 which was
consolidated to LRC/Civil Case No.3957-P for Separate
13
Judgement Re: Reconstitution of OCT No. 01-4 in the name of

Prince Lacan Tagean Tallano with Annulment of OCT No.01 up
to OCT No.100,000 vs. Hermogenes Rodriguez from which the
petitioner, Republic of the Philippines had acquired its interest
and rights over the subject lands under the principles of Public
Domain, alleging in that petition that late Julian Macleod
Tallano and Prince Lacan Acuna Tagean Tallano have no
surviving heirs whosoever, so therefore, under the law, said
big tracks of lands, the Hacienda Filipina evidenced by OCT No.
T-01-4 be reverted to the National Government.
On the above proceedings, the constitutional rights of

the heirs of the true owner had always been deprived,
thanks to the sound-meritorious judicial procedure of our
Judiciary then that asserted by then Solicitor General Felix
Makasiar, now, the pillar of our Supreme Court who sent
summons and subpoenas to the Tallano-Tagean heirs in
Hawaii and the old residence of the Tallano-Tagean in Sitio
Sauyo, Barangay Kuliat, Quezon City, the Decision in favor
of the Republic of the Philippines under LRC/Civil Case No.
997-P consolidated with LRC/Civil Case No. 3957-P had been
reverted in favor of Don Esteban Benitez Tallano by way of
Opposition Paper with supported evidences adopted from
government Position Paper and proof of ownership over the
land and proof of heirship to the late Prince Julian Macleod
Tallano and Prince Lacan Acuna Tagean Tallano and
Intervention by Benito A. Tallano that had submitted during
the Hearing prior to the release of Decision of July 14,
14
1964 which caused this case under LRC/Civil Case No. 3957-P
as consolidated one railroaded up to this proceedings.
On the part of the National Government represented by

then Macapagal Administration they came to the stipulation for
the issuance of the Decision with Compromise Agreement
subject to the following terms and conditions, here to wit:
1. That the Republic of the Philippines thru its President

His Excellency Diosdado Macapagal waived its rights over
the lands that are still found public lands or land that
have Land Title including their rights in Crisostomo
Estate in the City of Cabanatuan, yet and if ever titled
only those lands that have fraudulent Land Titles be reconveyed to and in favor of the heirs of Prince Julian
Macleod Tallano, provided the Land Reform should be
respected maintaining the land emancipated in favor of
the farmer beneficiaries, otherwise, conversion of the
land covered by Land Reform into a commercial purposes

ownership interest of the subject land should be
reversed in favor of the heirs of the true owner, late
Prince Julian Macleod Tallano; Don Esteban Benitez
Tallano or their successor in interest;

3. That the gold bullion lent by the Royal family to the

Republic of the Philippines, consisting of 650,00 metric
tons now, thru Reverend Father Jose Antonio Diaz by
arrangement of the young brilliant lawyer, Atty. Ferdinand
E. Marcos in the year 1949, for the establishment of the
required gold reserves of the newly installed Central Bank
of the Philippines should be maintained to the Central
Bank vaults toward maintenance of the countrys gold
reserves and the same should be.
19
withdrawable fifty years thereafter with five years

moratorium to stabilize the Philippine peso value, while the
clans, the Royal family should only be entitled for five
percent (5%) of the one percent (1%) of the appraised
value of the commodities as Royalty fee, and should be paid
by the government in cash equivalent to the surviving
beneficiaries, the heir of the late Prince Lacan Acuna
Tagean Tallano, who stayed in Vatican from the year 1866
to 1898 where he died at the age 178 years old, survived by
his son, the late Prince Julian Macleod Tallano at the age of
50, who was born on December 17,1848.
4. That said fifty (50) years gold reserve requirement could

only be withdrawn by the heir, Don Esteban Benitez Tallano,
or his successor in interest, Prince Julian Morden Tallano on
the year 2005, after another five (5) years moratorium
starting of year 2000, provided, no among the gold deposits
should have been diminished, otherwise, the Royal clan
represented by their heir. Don Esteban Benitez Tallano or
by his predecessor in interest, Julian Morden Tallano, who
inherited lawfully the Title of Prince under the Code of
Koran from his great great grandfather, late Prince Julian
Macleod Tallano (Tagean), has an option to terminate the
gold deposits earlier for the interest of the Filipino people.
5.
That any gold bullion that was deposited by Senate

President Ferdinand E. Marcos outside the Philippine
jurisdiction in conspiracy of the Royal Clan trustee and
20
Administrator, in the person of Reverend Father Jose

Antonio Diaz beyond the consent of the owner should be
returned back to the Philippine Central Bank Vaults.
To view actually over the proposed conditions of the

Macapagal Administration then for absolute implementation
has gained some opposition of the present government
administration due to the following allegations, although,
the true beneficiaries had never filed their objections, here
namely
That the said 640,000 metric tons of gold nuggets

own by the Royal family transported by then surviving son
of the late Prince Julian Macleod Tallano from Vatican after
the World War, in the person of Don Esteban Benitez
Tallano through the efforts of Reverend Father Jose
Antonio Diaz, trustee of the Royal family and, at the same
time client of then Atty. Ferdinand E. Marcos, deserves a
just compensation to Marcos client, Reverend Father Jose
Antonio Diaz for no less than 30% of the total value of the
said 640,000 metric tons which includes those bullion
actually deposited to the Central Bank Vaults consisting of
7,000 metric tons; Besides, there are some proposed
amendments over the conditions set forth by the
Macapagal Administration, which supplements the
proposed conditions of then Macapagal Administration, as
follows;
21
1. That the proposed Lungsod Silangan embracing around

46,000 hectares in Antipolo, San Mateo, Montalban,
San Jose del Monte, Taytay, Morong, Baras, Estrella,
Paete, Pililia, Jalajala, Infanta, Nakkar, and Real should
be paid only to the lawful beneficiary, Don Esteban
Benitez Tallano or to his successor in interest, Prince
Julian Morden Tallano at P5.00 per square meter
payable in one (1) year in four (4) equal installments
provided the would-be registered vendee should be the
daughter of the President, Miss Imee Romualdez
Marcos, considering the payment that will be sourced is
from the private funder in the United States, a
businessman counterpart of the Araneta family.
2. Secondly, that the land reform program of the present
administration should be maintained by the land owner,
except the lands already under payment of the Land
Bank, but the value of the land acquired through the
Land Bank financing facility should be paid in cash to
the land owner, Don Esteban Benitez Tallano or to his
successor in interest, Prince Julian Morden Tallano at a
price of P 0.50 per square meter or at P5,000 per
hectare on five years quarterly installments.
3. That the Mining and Marine Resources and all
resources that may be found above and below the
Philippine soils should fall within the ambit and
regulations of the relevant laws particularly the forest
and mining laws and Fishery Laws and
22
ordinances of both national and local governments but

not to the extent of depriving the absolute ownership
interest and privileges of the land owner;

Commission and its Honorable Solicitor General, Hermogenes A.

Rodriguez and Don Miguel Rodriguez who used OCT 369, which
claims by the Hon. Solicitor General, Felix Makasiar, are strongly
defeated by well-accepted history and documentary evidences
against these land grabbers, but that the said lands had been a
subject of land grabbing scheme thru force dominion and invasion
of the Spaniards over the archipelago against the inhabitants, who
own the subject lands, embracing the entire archipelago,
arrogantly instituted by the Friars in the Island of Manila instead
of Christianism which was originally known some 400 years ago as
Island of Maharlika which said land grabbing were escalated thru
frauds by mentioned alleged fictitious land owners. Now the
entire island known as Philippines, where the inhabitants suffered
thousands of casualties in the midst of bloody war against said
Spanish soldiers-land grabbers. Yet, the Honorable Solicitor
General claims as their defense that restoration of inhabitants
rights over the patrimonial lands was the efforts of the
government of the First Republic, therefore, said land should be
reverted to the government under the principle of Eminent
Domain. The manifestation of the government was controverted
ostensibly by the herein Intervenors by presenting documentary
evidences released by the newly recognized Philippine Historical
Commission together with their evidences found in their
possession here, Namely: Annex A-4, Certification from said
government agency dated January 10,1964, confirming the claim
of the Intervenors that the entire Greater Manila Area was under
the territories of the Namayan then some 5 centuries ago which
32
was divided into seven (7) districts of Maycatmon, Calatongdonan,

Dongos, Dilao, Pinacayasan, Yamagtogon up to Meysapan, whose
territories, based on said documents, are those now occupied by
the town of Pasay, Malate, Dilao, Pandacan, San Felipe or Mandaluyong,
Balete or the San Juan del Monte, Quiapo, Sampaloc, San Miguel,
Taytay, San Pedro de Macati (now Makati), Navotas, Malabon,
Meycauayan (Maysilo before), Caloocan, Valenquela or Valenzuela,
Quezon City or Pugad Lawin, Montalban, San Mateo, San Jose del
Monte (Bulacan), Marikina (Mariquina), Sta. Maria, Angat
(Bulacan), Norzagaray, Bulacan, Tanay, Antipolo, Morong, a former
Provincial Capital in lieu of the Province of Rizal, Cardona,
Culaylay or Cainta, Angono, Pilila, Jala-jala, Baras, Teresa, and the
Karilaya Islands (now Quezon Province) which includes the whole
Kawit region now Cavite and that lake region in its new name,
Laguna Province, including portion of Batangas (Bumbon Province
before), Laurel, Talisay, Lemery, Taal, Nasugbu, and Lipa, where
the origin of its inhabitants came from the Noble family names
Lacan-Tagean, the Datu or the Maharlika and grandson of the King
Luisong Tagean centuries ago, and by his wife Lamayan Bowan.
The noble tribes were the owners of the said territories and they
control the areas and inhabit themselves over the areas for more
than 5 centuries ago and it has passed by more than 10
generations of their clans, some of these were their children
in the name of Raja Lacan Tagean, the eleventh son of Rajah
Soliman who led bloody stripes in Manila against the Spaniards
during the Spanish time while, in Cebu led by Rajah Lapulapu,
older brother of Rajah Soliman. The leader King Luisong Tagean
33
and his sons Rajah Soliman and Rajah Lapulapu and Rajah Lacan
Tagean; eldest son of Rajah Soliman are of Malayan blood born
from known Malayan Federated Estate, were migrated to Manila
Island due to the Cataclysmic evolution of the earth that affected
mans habitation, while the wife of Rajah Lacan Tagean, Lamayan
Bowan; was forced to migrate to the coastal area of Sta. Ana now,
Lamayan District before, where Lamayan name was derived from
her maiden name baptized to her tribe where Lacan Gat Uban
(Mauban), younger son of Rajah Soliman born along the
Northeastern part of Sierra Madre and as known hero of the town
of Mauban. In the advent of Spanish era in the Island of Manila
more than 400 years ago, the Lacan Tagean clan, the grandson of
King Luisong Tagean, eldest son of Rajah Soliman, was renamed
into a Spanish sound name, Tallano to be elusive every time from
the Spanish Government prosecution and inhumane torturing
beside to take advantage the arrest and court immunities granted
by the Royal Crown of Spain to Filipino Mestizo and to Spanish
Nationals. The effort gained momentum from Spanish authorities
although in clandestine operation, the Tagean clans pursued their
endless support toward the Filipino revolution by arms struggle,
morally and financially pushing throughout the archipelago against
Spanish despotic autocracy until it borne out by them the Malagat
Revolt in Cagayan. Rajah Soliman, the father of Lacan Tagean in
1571, led a successful revolt in Manila followed suit and many
more arms uprising at the expense of their own effort, precious
stones and precious metals like gold jewelries which they
used for t h e r e b e l l i o n a g a i n s t S p a n i s h g o v e r n m e n t a s t h e
34
Tagean Clans saved out of their 1,000 years habitation on the

surface of the earth, particularly in the Island of Maharlika, now
Philippines. Later, during the Spanish Era, they called the Islands
as Manila as they extracted from medicinal shrubs named nilad for
which they defend the land they built and acquired through manual
labors of their ancestors some thousand years with the help of
their Creator and our mother nature.
Again, for reference, Manila started some thousand years

ago even before it borne out from the very womb of Rio de Tagean
(Pasig). Certainly, it was an integral portion of the Cataclysmic
Evolution of the earth plate. The origin of Manila name is
undoubtedly old. It was derived from medicinal shrub named
Nilad, in English name Scyphiphora hydrophyllacea, which was
usually used as medicine for the wounded Tagean warriors long
before the Spanish time. But, originally, the seat of the most
powerful Datu, the King Luisong Tagean which was inherited by
his son, Rajah Soliman and later by his grandson, Lacan Tagean,
was not in Manila but in Lamayan District, now the place of
Malacanang Palace previously a district of Sta. Ana where the
Lacan and his royal family reside. The evolution of the Tagean
clan into Tallano clan served as catalyst in pursuing their claims
and interest in land against the Spanish government until such
time when foreign intervention, like the British Royal Government
which started in 1761, had successfully liberated the Filipino
people from the Spanish colonization on October 14, 1764.
While the American government took its noble role and
settled the inhabitants perennial land problem by
35
Cessation Treaty that caused the Spanish-British government

worked for the said peace accord over dominion in the Philippine
territory and had been taken in place successfully in the
acquisition cost of 5 million U. S. dollars paid and extended by
the British government but such amount had provided by the
Tallano (Tagean) clan through the Kings son, Prince Lacan
Tagean Tallano who was born on December 17, 1686, the
grandfather of John T. Macleod, on the condition in the said
accord, the British and the Spanish governments and the U. S.
government as well, and any foreign dominion should respect the
inhabitants private ownership and interest in land. As a result
of this Treaty, and another Treaty, the Treaty of Paris, had come
out into being, yet, respecting the pre-condition that private
ownership and interests in lands in the Philippines should be
exercised with virtue undoubtedly.
TREATY OF PARIS (between the United States and Royal Crown of

Spain, Article VIII, second paragraph, dated April 24, 1894, to wit:
And it is hereby declared that relinquishment or cessation as the
case may be, to which the preceding paragraph refers, cannot, in
any respect, impair the property rights which, by law, belong to
the peaceful possession of property of all kinds, of Province, of
Municipalities, public or private establishment, ecclesiastical or
civic bodies, or any other associations having legal capacity to
acquire or possess property in the aforesaid territories renounced
or ceded to private individuals of whatsoever nationally such
individual as they may be.
36
The aforesaid relinquishment or cessation as the case may

be, includes all documents exclusively referring to the sovereignty
relinquished or ceded that may exist in the Archives of the
Peninsula where any document in such archives only in part
related to said sovereignty, a copy of such part will be furnished
whenever it shall be requested. Like rules shall reciprocally in
favor of Spain in respect to documents in the Archives of the
Island above referred to.
ARTICLE IX
Spanish subjects, natives of Peninsula residing in territory

over which Spain, by the present Treaty, relinquishes or cedes its
sovereignty, may remove therefrom, retaining in either even all
rights or property including the right to sell or dispose off such
property or of its proceeds, and they shall also have right to carry
on their industry, commerce or profession being subject in respect
thereof to such laws as are applicable to other foreigners dated
April 25, 1894.
Unquote, very clearly, as a matter of right in the Philippines

prescribed by such Treaty of Paris, in preservation of private
ownership over the land, through the English theory found a closer
importance. That furtherly, during the domination of this nation
by Spain, the Royal Crown spared no time nor any odd to proclaim
full ownership totally over our lands that private land titles from
the very origin could only be possessed from the government
37
either by buying with granting the Titulo de Compra (by bidding)

or by different modes of acquiring it or land grant. But the most
exception to this cardinal rule was where certain person had
established his ownership over the land he is claiming or thru his
predecessors in interest and had been in possession of the land
from time immemorial and such possession would mean justify
the presumption that the said land had been a private land even
before the Spanish dominion controverting lawfully that there is
no FRIAR LAND in the Philippines. Definitely, THERE IS NO
FRIAR LAND indeed, while, certainly, said allegation that there is
a FRIAR LAND was merely a hoax, just to subside over said land
ownership of the Royal clans, like the Intervenors in particular.
Yet, furtherly, as part of negotiation and immediately upon
signing of the said Treaty, a directive from the Royal Crown of
Spain to the claimants of the land in question, Don Hermogenes and
Don Miguel A. Rodriguez had been sent and became supplemental
to the recovery of the subject by the (Tagean) Tallanos,
certainly over the HACIENDA QUEBEGA (KEYBEGA) together with
that HACIENDA FILIPINA. This excerpt directly from the Letter
of the Queen of Spain and the United States Government (quote),
being an intruder of the Island of Manila, formerly Hacienda
Filipina now Philippines, in honor of His Royal Crown, the King of
Spain, you are commanded to be ceased and desist and reconvey
from your land holdings the whole HACIENDA FILIPINA, the
archipelago, Titled OCT No. T-01-4 in the name of Prince Lacan
Acuna Tagean Tallano or to his son Prince Julian Macleod
Tallano, the grandson of Alfred Dent, a British Lord and
London merchant a par owner of Royal British North
38
Borneo Company, which had been adversed by your interest and

in the name of your brother, Don Miguel Antonio Rodriguez, for
so long, to the damage of the true owners. Now, you should
respect this Royal Order in favor of the original land owner, the
late King Luisong Tagean clan and heirs, the prime predecessors
in interest, the Tallano clan, were their rights over the subject
lands had been defeated by more than 400 years of our Royal
Army occupation. But said rights are among the pre-conditions
embodied in our Cessation Treaty with the British government
and with the American government clarifying, among other
things, the respect to private properties, are the paramount
objectives of the said Treaty as prescribed by democratic
doctrine that every human being needs to adhere, for the
interest of global peace which were carried over by many of our
expeditions that the Royal Crown had initiated. That the order
of the Royal Crown in Expedition for democratic endeavors and
Christian values over the globe had been abused by you as
manifested by the vaudeville war of our Royal Armies thru
General Montojo and Admiral Dewey of the American government
degrading the Grand Flying Color of the Royal Crown destroying
also the turpitude of the world known GREAT Americas historic
record of the American government. Yet, we have no room in his
Highest Office to admit you with such barbaric and inhumane
acts you had done against our Christian brothers and sisters, the
Filipino people (Certified True Copy of the said letter translated
in English language marked as Annex I and made integral part of
government position paper during the hearing of the above-titled
case LRC/Civil Case No. 3957-P in 1969).
39
As appeared in the Madrid Protocol of 1885 signed by

Spain, England and Germany, under Article III of which the
Spanish Government renounced such claims over the
archipelago as far as regards to the Royal Crown of Great
Britain, that all claims of sovereignty over the territories of the
continent of the Philippine Islands, including Borneo and the
Tagean Islands (now known as Kalayaan Islands) which said
Sabah belonged to the past Sultan of Sulu with the conditions
that Island and income derived thereon should be apportioned
into two equal amount in favor of the Kiram heirs and the
Tallano-Tagean heirs.
Now, very apparently, the invaders were not the Spanish

Royal Crown and neither the Great Americans, but merely the
Spanish Filipino Mestizos who have had vested interest to grab
the archipelago. If we will refresh our idea for the truth over
the land in question based on the government position paper
and its evidences, ultimately, we could assess the veracity of
ownership over said land of a person who has better rights and
interest over the subject matter.
It was admitted part of the Position Paper of the Republic

of the Philippines under LRC/Civil Case No. 3957-P that no less
than the Chinese Emperor named Yung Lo, as it was written in
Sung and Ming Dynasty between the year 1368 to 1644 AD, a
symbol for the respect and due recognition of the Chinese
Empire
over
to
his
the
land
nobility
ownership
of the King Luisong Tagean

and
rulership
over
the
40
archipelago that time already embracing 7,134 islands including

that Sabah and Freedom Islands, the Chinese Emperor gave him
a gift of silk cloth and several tons of precious metals like gold,
jewels as a token of tribute to the Noble King whose name,
Noble King Luisong Tagean, was adopted in naming the largest
island in his honor, the Island of Luzon by the said Chinese
Emperor Yung Lo (Chou-Ti) that even to the earlier time, King
Luisong Tagean regarded him by the foreign traders as King
when there was no ruler over the archipelago and that still, the
ownership of the noble clan over the Island of Maharlika
remained as historic landmark, while, later Manila, now
Philippines, never gained any resistance nor opposition of any
kind from various tribes of the inhabitants which means directly
admitting the vast of land over the archipelago was owned by
the Tagean-Tallano Royal Clan, who discovered, rebuilt, glorified
and fortified from thousand of years by his predecessors.
Indeed, the inhabitants of the Islands (Hacienda Filipina before),
including Visayas and Mindanao, kept their respect over the said
rights endowed to the noble family over the ownership of the
archipelago including the islands of Visayas and Mindanao by
paying their share out of their harvest from the lands they were
tilling for and in behalf of the Royal Family, the Tallano-Tagean
clan. In 1405, the government of China sent an Imperial Decree
in Manila affirming with vowed courtesy to the Ruler of the
archipelago consisting over 7,134 islands. By 1754, Datu
Bantilan, brother of Alimudin, sent a package of Sulu soil as
tribute acknowledging that the Sultan desired the Sulu islands
be
registered
to
China
but
it
was
opposed
by
King
41
Luisong Tagean. Instead, what was to be done was that the

Continent of China be registered to the Islands of Maharlika in
respect to the King Luisong Tagean considering by nature that
China continent has been embraced by natural plate of the
archipelago which were proven by the historic payment of taxes of
the Chinese from mainland led by Emperor Yung Lo as tribute to
the King.
For long long years of glorification and habitation to the

archipelago, the Noble Clan had reverted the land of Mindanao to
his cousins, the three (3) Sultans of Mindanao represented in the
persons of Sultan Kiram Sinsuat, Sultan Hadji Kiram Misuari, and
Sulu Sultan Muhammad Badar Un-Din. Relatively, chosen the seat
of the kingdom and was finally settled in the Lamayan District in
Sta. Ana, Manila, long before Malacanang had been constructed by
the conquistadors, where Lamayan name was also derived from the
noble Lacans wife, Lamayan Bowan, having several descendants
and were honored as Rajas to their respective territories and sets
Tagean Royal Guard to protect 50,000 inhabitants living in the
Islands of Sabah which is part of Philippine territory. These noble
Rajas covered the entire Luzon, Visayas and some in the
Islands of Mindanao also to help for the pacification of the
s o c i a l disturbances which exist up to the present created by the
Muslim inhabitants, who were discontented of their plight in their
lives which are displaced due to the reason that their lands were
confiscated by the friars. The second eldest son of King
Luisong Tagean was named Rajah Soliman, the one who
controlled the entire area of Manila and its suburbs
42
Including the Provinces of Rizal, Cavite, Batangas, Laguna, and the

Karilaya Province (now Quezon), Rajah Lakandula, another
grandson of the king, took over Tondo during the untimely demise
of Rajah Soliman. The third eldest grandson, Rajah Gat Mauban
Tagean, who was married to the daughter of Bornean Sultan Abdul
Kahar, the sixth Sultan of Brunei. Rajah Solaiman Tagean and his
wife, Princess Tarhata Acuna Kahar Acuna, have their begotten son
and was baptized into his name Prince Lacan Tagean, was adapted
from his grandmother Margarett Acuna, Macleod Tagean. In the
same manner, Prince Lacan Tagean Tallano has begotten son, as
Prince Julian Macleod Tallano, and their descendants Rajah Magat
Salamat, who, took over the area of Cagayan Valley. Rajah
Baginda, the another grandson, had covered the area of Bohol,
while another descendant, Rajah Kabingsuran, took over the area
of Southern Mindanao, and Rajah Lapulapu, the eldest son of King
Luisong Tagean, took over the area of Mactan Island. Another
grandson of the King was Rajah Kolambo, the ruler of Limasawa,
and Rajah Humabon, the 8 t h grandson, was the ruler of Cebu
Island, and Rajah Sikatuna, another of the King assigned as the
ruler of Bohol, while Rajah Gat Mauban Tagean, the youngest
grandson of the King took over eastern part of Quezon including
Mauban, Sampaloc and Lucban to protect the interest of his
grandson Vicente Lukban.
With the collaboration of the treacherous Filipinos,

Legazpi succeeded to occupy Manila that caused Rajah Soliman,
the Kings son, fled to nowhere but to the forested area
of Sierra Madre toward Malaysia and married to the
43
Beautiful daughter of Alfred Dent, Mary Anne Dent and during his
absence that made his relative, Rajah Lakandula, took over Tondo
and welcomed Legazpi and helped in rebuilding the City of Manila.
Governor General Miguel de Legazpi, before his death by his effort,
Royal Decree of 1572 has been issued under the Council of the
Indies recognizing the Filipinos patrimonial land and interest over
their ancestral lands including that of Tagean Clan over Hacienda
Quebega and the entire archipelago, the Hacienda Filipina, which
was in the name of King Luisong Tagean, while, the purpose of
dominion over the Philippine Islands was merely for the
propagation of Christianism since the early Filipinos and even the
noble clan coincided with the belief that there is only one God, our
Father Almighty (Bathala) in Holy Trinity (Santisima Trinidad), and
under their Coran they called Allah.
The noble King Luisong Tagean thru his Rajahs sons and
descendants, remained determined to recover the so-called Royal
lands, the Maharlika Island including Hacienda Quebega which
built out of their efforts, resources and labors of several
thousand of years of rearing it for mans habitation to suit the
needs of the inhabitants in the island. Yet, their war against the
autocratic government of Spain was of no end, much mire, they
poured more resources, efforts, energies and with their warriors
including the arms uprising of their farm tillers to pursue
rebellions for the realization of their aspiration, the ultimate
recovery of their Royal Land and the independence of the island
from any foreign dominion. The war outburst by the first Filipino
44
revolt in the year 1574 led by Rajah Solimans cousin, Rajah

Lakandula, then his nephew, Magat Salamat, the son of Rajah
Lakandula, who led the arm uprising in Cagayan Valley. Rajah
Lakandula helped Miguel de Legazpi in pacifying Central Luzon
toward common goal of Peace Treaty, but the said Peace Treaty
between the noble clans and the Spanish government
deteriorated during the untimely death of Governor General
Miguel de Legazpi and had signaled the resumption of Filipino
revolution against Spanish invaders by reasons of human abuses,
injustices and unjust confiscation of private wealth and
properties including ancestral lands of the inhabitants, the
Moslems, and particularly the noble clans. The said Filipino
revolts followed by Magalat Revolt in Cagayan conspired by
another Kings descendants, Felipe Catabay and Gabriel Dayag,
followed by Tamblot Revolt in 1621 which followed to ignite into
rebellion by the Bankaws Rebellion in 1622 staged by another
Kings descendant in the person of Fernando Silang, the
grandfather of Diego Silang of Ilocos Sur, then later followed
by another Lakandulas descendants revolt known as the
Ladia Revolt in the year 1643 that inspired the outburst of
Sumoroy arms uprising in the 1649.
This was followed by
the Kings descendant in the name of Francisco Maniago,

who led the Maniago Revolt in Pampanga in the year 1860.
The rebellion escalated to wider area of the archipelago
up to Mindanao to recover the Land of Promise in favor
of his Muslim relatives the Sultans of Southern Mindanao.
Another revolt by Kings descendants was staged in the
person of Andres Malong who led the revolt in Pangasinan in
45
the year 1660-1661 where he declared himself the king of

Pangasinan with the confirmation of the noble clans, and followed
by King Luisongs grandsons rebellion in the name of Francisco
Dagohoy who initiated the rebellion in Bohol in the year 1744-1820,
the longest revolt during that time that had been followed by the
Agrarian Revolt, comprising the farm tillers of the Noble Clan all
over the island which was known as Agrarian Revolt in the year 1745.
To augment the efforts in rebellion successfully, Prince

Julian Macleod Tagean (Tallano), son of Prince Lacan Tagean
Tallano, who was married to a beautiful daughter of a sixth Sultan
of Brunei, Princess Aminah Kiram, her father Sultan Abdul Kahar
and whose family name was baptized from Tagean into a Spanish
sound name, Tallano, redeemed the island from the U.S. government
in the amount of US$20 million mortgaged by Spanish government
and sought succor from British empire in the year 1761 that
resulted into a Military siege over the Islands by the British Royal
Army the dawn of October 5, 1762, that made the island rescued
and freed totally from Spanish dominion in honor of the Noble
clan, the Tagean-Tallano family had resulted for a period of seven
(7) years British occupation in the archipelago. The date of the
successful invasion of the British Royal Army in helping the Filipino
revolts and Tagean clan aspiration had augmented the mourned to
death of the Noble King Luisong Tagean in December 17, 1764
who left of nothing but noble teachings, this bounty of bullion
of gold, 720,000 metric tons, as legacies to his Royal children
and descendants and to the inhabitants of Maharlika Island,
46
now, Philippines, love to God, his Creator above all, love also to is
clan, to his fellowmen and to his land he lives in with compassion
in the preservation of justice for all and with equal access for
divine graces and opportunities toward common survival from
adversities in life were the golden teachings in his kingdom was
paramountly important. The efforts of Manila Liberation attributed
to the Noble Clans by the Royal Military of Great Britain bear the
fruit to liberalize the island from Spanish government in the
archipelago. The Noble King Luisong Tagean, almost nine (9)
months after the issuance of the Declaration of the said Treaty,
died in peace with happiness in heart could be reflected therein on
December 17, 1764, exactly at 270 years of age upon learning the
positive fruits of his efforts which was the issuance of Land Title
over the archipelago in his honor issued by the British government
embracing 7,134 islands embracing around 503,877 square nautical
miles under OCT No. T-01-4 for and in the name of his grandson,
Prince Lacan Tagean on December 17, 1764 and later to 16 years
old Prince Julian Macleod Tallano in 1864.
What the Spanish historian claimed that the Philippines

was discovered by Magellan in honor of the King of Spain was
entirely misleading and full of deception because said claim was
only an avenue to justify the declaration of CESSATION TREATY
between the American and Spanish governments involving the
Islands of the Philippines, Guam, Puerto Rico and Cuba in the
amount of $20 million U.S. dollars. This is in consequence of the
orchestrated battle between the two led by leaders of the
47
two countries in the Philippines in the early dawn o August 13,

1898 while, the truth of the matter, the said dramatized war
should not have happened because of a PROTOCOL FOR PEACE
between the two countries, Spanish and American, had been
signed on August 12, 1898 signifying the truth that both Spanish
and American governments were noble to agreed commitment for
peace in the Orient upholding the true spirit of democracy in the
Island of Manila, now Philippines, in as much as neither the U.S.
nor the Spanish government knew about the ill-motive of Admiral
Dewey and Spanish Royal Army General Montojo. Their guns,
ammunition and their cannons started shelling the City of Manila
leaving several thousands of Filipino casualties after the traitor
American Admiral and General Montojo of the Army of the Royal
Crown of Spain, the expected defender of democracy intentionally
cut all the way out of the communication connecting the
archipelago to the United States of America, that deliberately gave
birth to the CESSATION TREATY OF THE U.S.A. and of the Spanish
Crown which includes the conditions among other things as
follows:
1. The ceding of the Philippines, Guam, Cuba and Puerto Rico

by Spaniards to the United States
2. Payment of $20 Million U.S. dollars to the Spanish
government by the United States of America, appearing not
as purchase price but only as generous gesture to American
victory over its enemy while Spain had secured loan to
finance its war for invasion to the Philippines but consequently
causing another Filipino war against Americans for
48
independence that, in deed, Spanish governments general

conspired with the U.S. Admiral Dewey defeating the truth
that Spanish government has been losing to the Filipino
revolutionists on the time that the archipelago had been
acquired by the American from the Spanish government.
The CESSATION TREATY between the United States of

America and the Spanish government ceded the Philippines, Guam,
Cuba and Puerto Rico in the amount of $20 million U.S. dollars is
abusive in character because the Spanish government had no
authority to cede the Philippines to the United States of America
on the mere ground that the war between the two countries was
merely a vaudeville one, besides, beforehand, the entire
archipelago then by the strength and help of Great Britain
absolutely conquered and liberated by the British Royal Armies and
Filipino warriors after it worked the virtue of PEACE TREATY
between Great Britain and the Spanish Royal Crown which was
signed on March 31, 1764, where the paramount conditions of the
Treaty was an absolute respect to the Filipino private property
including their ancestral lands that directly controverted the
alleged Spains rights to the Philippines which were acquired by
conquest and physical occupation. Yet, claiming the Philippine
archipelago became the property of the King of Spain was barred
by Peace Treaty between Great Britain and Spanish Royal Crown.
American ownership over the archipelago was no force and

effect even the HHC Law, better known as Harvey-Harding
Cutting Law, which was passed authorizing the restoration of
49
American ownership over the lands including that of private

property in the Philippines for American government Military
Reservation and other purposes because said law had been vetoed
by U.S. President Harding requiring its further review and this was
caused by a re-passing by U.S. Congress with overwhelming votes
for an inclusion of a provision that said HHC Bill be accepted by
Filipino legislators of by the Filipino people in a plebiscite. In Lieu
of the congressional initiatives over the Philippine Islands, the said
HHC Law had been rejected by the Filipino legislators because it
totally deprive the basic rights of the Royal Family, the TageanTallano clans, and the Filipino people over the lands in the
Philippines.
Indeed, long before hand, ownership of the Noble Clan, the

Tagean-Tallano Clan, over the archipelago had been concretely
rectified upon the creation of the Supreme Court in 1580. It
decided the said case under the Royal Audiencia initiated by
Governor General Miguel de Legazpi in 1572 where said Royal
Decree of 1572 had been issued requesting ownership of the Royal
family to the entire archipelago with exemption that the Island of
Mindanao be reverted back to the Noble Kings cousins; the three
(3) Sultans of Mindanao led by Sultan Sinsuat, Sultan Hadji Kiram
Misuari and Sultan Sirongga, now in the name of Princess Aminah
Tarhata Kiram, the granddaughter of King Luisong Tagean,
particularly the Land of Promise, the Island of Mindanao, that
should be inherited by their relative Moslem families. The creation
of the Royal Audiencia establishing a Supreme Court in the
Philippines had been successfully done on May 5, 1583
50
followed by the issuance of Supreme Court decision deciding that

portion of the Island of Mindanao were absolutely owned by the
three (3) aforementioned Sultans allowing their Muslim brothers to
own portion of land they live in with preference over their
Christian brothers.
The Spanish cohorts who have eager interest to grab the

lands of the Noble family remained in their influence that caused
the passage of the HHC Law but was turned down by both U.S.
Congress and Philippine legislators. Such evil intent had never
ended and the same were inherited by those of similar intention
like the Spanish Mestizo/Filipino families in the Philippines.
These Spanish Mestizo Filipinos even sought seats in the
Philippine Congress and key positions in the Philippine
Commission like the Tuazon, the Ortigas, and the Aranetas. They
eventually established similar political interest in the Philippine
Commonwealth that caused the passage of repressive laws. Its
focal objectives were to dispense the interest of the Noble Family
over the Royal properties besides of their intention to manipulate
the records of the said lands to follow suit their own interest and
to maneuver for the re-issuance of another Titles that would
subside the Titles of OCT No.T-01-4 of the Royal Clan over the
subject parcel of lands. These repressive laws were as follows:
R.A. 2259 better known as the Cadastral Act of March 14, 1914
and the Republic Act 496 better known as the Land Registration
Act of 1902, but these laws, later on, were found to be
ineffective considering that the land had been covered by
eligible good Title probative origin, under OCT No. 01-4
51
which was found registered anew in the name of Prince Julian

Macleod Tallano-I, the father of Don Esteban Benitez Tallano, the
descendants of King Luisong Tagean. The said OCT, which was
issued in 1764 in the name of Prince Lacan Acuna Tagean by the
British Royal government and which were appealed in the Royal
Audiencia in 1572 by Don Hermogenes Rodriguez and his brother
claiming the said Island was a reward to their grandfather, a
General of Spanish army, Rodriguez de Figueroa, gained fruitless
efforts but, later on, under the Spanish Encomienda system by the
order of the Royal Audiencia, the decision had been maintained on
the year 1864 to and in favor of Prince Julian Macleod Tallano, the
grandfather of John Tallano Macleod. Now, the issue as to the
legality of ownership of the American government over the subject
land was whether or not said land is lawful to be inherited by the
Philippine government from the U.S. government. Certainly, based
on the evidences and circumstances, the ownership of the
Philippine Republic and its government over the subject noble
lands was void and unconstitutional even if the basis was a
Philippine Constitution of 1935 but neither the Malolos Constitution
could warrant the legality of Philippine government ownership over
the said lands on the reason that U.S. government acquired
unlawful rights over the land, the same, it thwarted the evil
interest of the Republic of the Philippines over the subject Royal
properties, the entire archipelago and Hacienda Quebega. OCT
No. T-01-4 represents the whole archipelago and represents four
(4) regions: Luzon, Visaya, Palawan-Zamboanga embracing
(Tagean) Kalayaan and Sabah, and that Mindanao Region.

19)
Certified Copy of the excerpts from the sworn testimonies

of NBI Director Jolly Bugarin before the Senate Blue
Ribbon Committee headed by the Ex-Senate President Gil
Puyat and made as integral portion of the government
Position Paper divulging several Modus Operandi of those
in the LRC-Bureau of Lands before in conspiracy of those
influential group in the government in the massive
issuance of fake land titles affecting the titles of the
Tallano, OCT No. 01-4, TCT No. T-498, and that TCT No. T408 in the name of Don Gregorio Madrigal Acop, in favor of
the land grabbers and oligarch real estate developers as
they were benefited by those who could pay lucrative sum.
The Modus Operandi are as follows:
The grand design, land grabbing of the LRC-Bureau
of Lands in conspiracy with their cohorts-Real Estate
Developers has caused the root of some 20 million fake
land titles over the subject lands under the following
procedures:
SCHEME I
1)
Issuance of new Approved Survey Plan in Pre-patent.
2)
Issuance of Pre-patent Original Certificate of Title

at a price of P5.00 per square meter and
for better price, the LRC-Register of Deeds
people mutilate Pre-patent OCT for the
59
immediate issuance of Transfer Certificate of Title in

the name of the conspirator-fraudulent land owners.
SCHEME II
1)
Issuance of ante-dated Approved Survey Plan with

micro-film.
2)
Issuance of ante-dated Decree over the subject land

with some Spanish character and language.
3)
Issuance of ante-dated OCT to TCT in exchange of

P20.00 to P30.00 per square meter depending on the
location of the land with Spanish character and
language.
SCHEME III
1)
Issuance of ante-dated Approved Survey Plan with

micro-film.
2)
Issuance of ante-dated Decree.
3)
Issuance of ante-dated Title from OCT to TCT in

exchange for P30.00 to P40.00 per square meter. For
those who cannot pay in spot cash, the applicant will
be required to pay fifty (50) percent down payment
and the Land Title would be released in exchange of
Letter of Guarantee of Payment by the financing
private bank or, most of the time, by the government
financing institution thru the recommendation of those
influential persons from Malacanang Palace, then.
60
SCHEME IV
1)
Issuance of ante-dated Approved Survey Plan in the name

of LRC-Bureau of Lands employees, cohorts and relatives.
2)
Issuance of ante-dated OCT and then TCT in the name of

their cohorts and relatives.
3)
Then sells the land to the developers or buyers.
4)
Beforehand, the developers-claimants would be engaged

in the hiring of professional squatters to occupy the area
before the document of ownership is processed to
guarantee the occupancy of the land.
SCHEME V (for those influential persons in the government)

1)
Issuance of government infrastructure permit to the

applicant to occupy the land.
2)
Fencing and installing paid security personnel.
3)
Through recommendation of Malacanang authority,

applicants procure development loan from government
financing institutions and eventually for approval by mere
presentation of the following:
a)
TCT from fake origin to procure

1)
Building permit with Project Plan
2)
Authority to Develop and permit to Sell issued

by the Department of Public Works Building
Permit Division and the Human Settlement
Regulatory Commission (HSRC)
61
3)
Most of the developers absconded the funds

that had released under bank loans to
diversify into another project but some
pursue the development as regular business
like those thriving real estate developers
who became millionaires under the blessings
of these schemes to the predicament of the
legitimate land owners, the Noble Clan, and
finally to the damage of the General Public.
Apparently and inevitably, an affirmation of Tallanos

ownership over the land, Hacienda Filipina has been given further
consideration reaching the question, on what legal interest
anchored to the subject lands that the Republic of the Philippines
could show better right than the ownership of the legitimate
claimants, Don Esteban Benitez Tallano and Don Gregorio Madrigal
Acop and heirs of the Tallano and Acop? On this legal point of
view, while based on the evidence OCT No. T-01-4 was in the
name of Prince Lacan Acuna Tagean Tallano, the government never
possessed said better ownership and legal rights over the land
than what the heirs having as much as the legal heirs remained
physically fit, alive and kicking and controverting strongly the
deceptive allegation of the Republic of the Philippines that the said
owners and heirs over the subject land were dead and no survivor
to claim it so it should necessarily be reverted to Public Domain,
are allegations full of deceptions and purely hearsay.
62
Besides, the legal ownership rights of the Tagean-Tallano

Heirs are fully supported by strong evidences of ownership over
the land adapting the evidences of the Republic of the Philippines
but the claim for ownership by the government and that paragraph
I of the government Position Paper over the same subject land has
been strongly opposed under the Principles of PRIUS TEMPORE
PORTIUR JURI by the Tallano-Acop considering that no less than
the AMICUS CURAE and this Court were the ones that confirmed
the legitimacy and the physical evidence of the said land owners
besides, the alleged expropriation by the government over the
subject land in favor of the legal owners/heirs had not been
consummated that forced the Philippine government to file a
Motion for Issuance of a Separate Decision with Compromise
Agreement with the lawful owners to protect the land actually
occupied by its government buildings and its agencies offices,
including local government offices and instrumentalities.
Besides, the allegation of the Hon. Solicitor General to

settle ownership first once and for all over the land covered by
OCT No. T-01-4 and including necessary reconstitution of lost
owner and duplicate copies of the original, OCT No. T-01-4
relative to the Case as they are accusing this Honorable Court for
NON SEQUITOR is purely blatant lie and deception beyond the
basis of truth, because movant himself, through its Hon. Solicitor
General, failed and continuously failing to prove its better and
stronger rights over the land in question against the rightful
owners evidences, its merit is undoubtful on the reason
63
that the same had been used as governments evidences against

the plaintiffs and the defendants in the case at bar. So, now,
how can we subscribe such evidences that had been used by the
government for its interest and defense as reflected in its
position papers that the same evidences had been presented by
the Tallanos heirs as its primary evidences are fraudulent in
character? Can it be that the government a direct source of
fraudulent evidences? Certainly not, according to LRC
Commissioner Antonio M. Noblejas. Therefore, the government
should be barred by Statute of Limitation and/or Estopel for
pubic interest, since people demand honest services from the
government. As hereunder were derived from the text of the
government Position Paper, pages 2 and 3, read as follows: That
neither the plaintiffs Orfinada or defendant Macario J. Rodriguez
or any party in interest herein mentioned has valid rights over
the land in question in as much as the subject lands containing
an area of around 125,326.37 hectares, evidenced by TCT No. T408 duly registered in the name of Don Gregorio Madrigal Acop in
the Register of Deeds of Pasig for the province of Rizal. And the
land is not covered by OCT No. 4136 as earlier claimed by the
heirs of Don Mariano San Pedro Esteban, nor it is covered by OCT
369, OCT 735, OCT 333, OCT 33, OCT 543, OCT 844, OCT 730,
OCT 734, OCT 994, OCT 614, OCT 820, OCT 779, and no other
Titles except that OCT T-01-4 and that TCT No. T-408 and TCT
No. T-498 as claimed by the Republic of the Philippines while
the truth of all, said TCT No. T-408 had been derived from
OCT No. 01-4, the only Original Certificate of Title that
embraced the whole archipelago including the areas of
64
Visayas and Mindanao, the paramount Title of them all. And that
all Land Titles in OCT that has a number from 01 to 100,000 which
was amended from OCT 01 to OCT No. 10,000, should be cancelled
for being fraudulent Titles, yet, means not existing at all except
that OCT 01-4 which was registered in the Province of Morong
then, the copy of the eligible and original one, but was altered in
Batangas Register of Deeds as OCT 0-14 in lieu hereof as the
fundamental foundation of truth. Even then, the same, said OCT
No. 01-4 with presence of those land titles, it cannot deform nor
destroy its probative value for the rightful owners under the
Principle of Torrens System. Annex A, a Certified True Copy of
TCT No. T-408 that was issued by the Register of Deeds of Pasig
for the Province of Rizal and not of the Register of Deeds of
Quezon City as earlier alleged by the defendants, Ortigas and
Company, Tuazon and Co. Partnership, Dominador de Ocampo
Buhain, Pedro Roxas heirs, Hermogenes Rodriguez heirs, Patricia
Tiongson heirs, Eulalia Raguss heirs, Don Mariano San Pedro
Esteban heirs, while other defendants failed to file their answers
within the reglamentory period. However, Dominador de Ocampo
Buhain, the claimant of the same area under an allege OCT No.
779 which was marked as Annex A and at the back of it was marked
as Annex B and had made as integral part hereof were found with
similar nature and no force and effect. The annotation of the
Deed of Absolute Sale, however, that covers the portion of the
subject lands under TCT No. T-408 in the name of Benigno Toda of
the Philippine Airlines for his 75 hectares he acquired from Don
Annacleto Madrigal Acop are hereto attached as well. While the
65
Intervenor Julian M. Tallano, who acquired an area of 15,195.933

hectares together with the area he acquired in the Province of
Cavite containing around 94,666.37 hectares from his grandfather,
Gregorio Madrigal Acop, are hereto attached and made as an
integral portion hereof.
Paragraph D of the government Position Paper which reads as

follows:
That another TCT No. T-498 and not TCT No. 409 as the Rodriguez
claims, embracing the land area of around 271,276 hectares,
covering the same towns of the Province of Morong, now Rizal,
Bulacan, Quezon Karilaya before includes Dingalan, Real, Infanta,
Nakkar, including that of the Greater Manila Area, the whole of
Cavite, Quezon City, Kaloocan City, portion of Bumbon, now
Batangas, like Laurel, Taal, Lemery, Talisay, Nasugbu, Lipa,

San Jose del Monte, Angat, and Bocaue, for the Bulacan, Taytay,
Morong, Pililia, Jala-jala, Baras, Teresa, Tanay, Cardona, Angono,
Antipolo, Cainta, Marikina, with the same Land Title was derived
from OCT No. 01-4, a Land Title of probative value which was issued
by virtue of Royal Decree of 1764 and was rectified by the Spanish
Mortgage Law in the name of Prince Lacan Acuna Tagean Tallano.
Indeed, it had no other Land Title except of the above and, if there
be like these allege OCT 4136, OCT 735, OCT 820, OCT 904, OCT
33, OCT 844, OCT 333, OCT 160, OCT 291, OCT 209, OCT 498, OCT
4085, OCT 543, OCT 2573, OCT 614, OCT 393, OCT 374, OCT 730,
OCT 632, and that all OCT from 01 to OCT 4085 then from OCT 4086
to OCT 100,000 which were confirmed by the Land Registration
66
Commission (LRC) and the NBI as fraudulent Land Titles upon

Motion of the LRC thru the Solicitor General, the same Land Titles
were declared null and void ab initio, an enough ground to cancel
these Titles. It was on the part of this Honorable Court to order
the Register of Deeds of the places where the lands are situated to
cancel and nullify the aforementioned Land Titles which remained
enforceable against the legitimate Land Title OCT No. T-01-4
eroding the stable and sound foundation of Torrens System.
And if ever these fake Land Titles are on file with the said
Registry of Deeds of the place where the land is located
necessarily the concern Register of Deeds should cancel the
same for conveyance in favor of the rightful owners, the Tallano,
et.al. The Certified True Copy of the said TCT No. 498 was duly
presented by the Office of the Register of Deeds of the Province of
Bulacan by virtue of the Motion of the Solicitor General, attending
for the issuance of Subpoena Duces tecum to the Hon. Register of
Deeds is hereby marked as Annex E and E-1 at the back of the
Title. While that Annex D to D-19, photocopies of the Titles of
the land in question and lawfully issued by the perpetrators in
the LRC and of the Registry of Deeds of the concerned towns
and municipalities and by the province that covers the areas,
evidenced by the Certification from the LRC Records Section,
pertaining to the above cited Land Titles including the
fraudulent copy of OCT No. 01-4 which is far identical from
the copies of the eligible one, that was falsified and had
presented by the alleged heirs of Hermogenes Rodriguez had been
marked as Annex H. And the same had been declared by this
Honorable Court as null and void and are cancelled Land Titles ab
67
Initio. The same which were marked as Annex C and Annex

D to D-19 are hereto attached and made as integral part
hereof.
Paragraph E of the said Position Paper of the

government, excerpt therefrom and read as follows: That
both TCT No. T-408 and TCT No. T-498 are titles from origin
of probative value and were derived from OCT No. 01-4,
embracing the whole archipelago, Islands of Luzon, Visayas,
Mindanao, and Palawan Peninsula embracing the Sabah
Island and the Tagean Kalayaan Islands for a total of 7,134
islands which manifested that OCT No. 01-4 as it presented
the whole archipelago for that 01 and mentioned four major
islands representing 4, or in clear idea, 01-4, and not only
embracing 7,100 islands which was mistakenly defined by
the 1935 Philippine Constitution. Said OCT that was issued
on the year 1764 had been rectified by virtue of Royal
Decree 1864 which is bankable in accordance with Spanish
Mortgage Law together with its expedient Land Titles, TCT
No. T-408 and TCT No. T-498, which are Torrens Titles in
character, per se (A Certified True Copy, authentic and
genuine copy of said OCT No. 01-4 with the Certification
from the Record Section of the LRC duly issued thru the
effort and request of the Office of the Solicitor General are
hereto attached and marked as Annex F and F-1 and are
made as integral part hereof).
68
Paragraph F of the government Position Paper excerpt

therefrom which reads as follows:
That the government has the sole absolute rights over the land in
question under Principle of Eminent Domain and by virtue of
expropriation proceedings the government has undertaken between
and in favor of the land owner, Don Esteban Benitez Tallano. As a
matter of evidence, Annex A to Annex A-19 are Cash Vouchers
amounting to P20 million Pesos, showed the land owner receiving a
yearly rental of P1 million from the national government for a
period of 20 years since the signing of the administration of the
late President Manuel Roxas in 1948 and ended in 1968
respectively for the use of the Balara Water Reservoir Facilities,
including other lots occupied by other government agencies,
including also the roads and highways that have been utilized for
public welfare, clearly manifested that the Republic of the
Philippines has a Pre-emptive Rights to buy said lands from the
land owner, Don Esteban Benitez Tallano, considering that said
land owner has been receiving a rental payment from the
government, yet, it should be treated as an initial payment of that
ongoing expropriation proceedings. Annex A to Annex A-1 to A-19
are hereto attached and made as integral part hereof.
Paragraph G of said government Position Paper, its context

excerpt therefrom, reads as follows:
Report of the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee, led and initiated
by H o n . S e n a t e P r e s i d e n t G i l P u y a t , S r . , w h o c o n d u c t e d
the
investigation over the reported land scam to restore
the
trust and
confidence
of
the
Filipino
people over
69
the strength and wisdom of Torrens System in the country

subsiding said paramount interest while national security is at
stake participated and had connived with one another by the
employees of the Department Works and Highways, Building Permit
Division, those in the LRC and in the Survey and Record Section of
the Bureau of Lands, including employees of the Register of Deeds
of the affected towns and municipalities and the covered
provinces, in massive issuance of falsified Land Titles ranged from
OCT 01 to OCT No. 100,000 embracing the subject area to the
embarrassment of the national government which were taken
advantage by irresponsible Real Estate Developers, local and
barrio officials who were directly engage in the selling of rights of
the subject land by way of controlling and fencing it, control it and
posted with billboards and sell it to the developers. The said
report marked as Exhibit G and was duly issued by the Record
Section of the Philippine Senate in the year 1968 and had made as
an integral part hereof.
Paragraph H of the government Position Paper, its excerpts

are read as follows:
Sworn Statement of LRC Deputy Commissioner Gregorio Bilog, Jr.,
attesting to the facts that there are actually massive issuance of
spurious Land Titles embracing the land in question which involves
not only 10,000 fake OCT but an estimated 100,000 fake Land
Titles in Original Certificate of Titles were originated from OCT 01
to OCT 100,000, etc. not as previously divulged by the LRC ranging
from OCT 01 to OCT 10,000 but clearly in favor of the government
cohorts in exchange of lucrative sum which said anomalous titling
70
originated during the time of Antonio Noblejas and in connivance

of his staff, in the LRC then which were remained employed in the
LRC and earlier during the time of Zoilo Castrillo, the designated
Administrator of the defunct Rural Development Administration
(RDA) later as ADMINISTRATOR OF LAND TENURE
ADMINISTRATION OFFICE who was tempted by million amount of
pesos in someway that caused the massive issuance of Land Titles
of the subject lands, some in favor of PHHC then now on its new
propose name NHA after the pertinent papers and records relative
to OCT No. 01-4, TCT No. T-408, TCT No. T-498, together with
that PSU 2031 were depleted its area of coverage and altered in
favor of Maricaban Estate while II-69, the same, its records were
uprooted and were changed to another ones beside the technical
description of that Decree No. 297, the same were altered and
depleted into area of smaller coverage which has been confined in
Cavite Province alone defacing its credible and probative value,
and legal purposes were destroyed instead its greater coverage to
Greater Manila Area. And some data of the land were altered for
the interest of the conspirators-buyers of the subject lands. This
sworn statement of the witness had been marked as Annex H and
had made as integral part hereof.
Paragraph I of the government Position Paper where the

testimonies of former DOJ Secretary Salvador Marino then before
the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee and was used on the year
1968, and it stated that the government could not be a
source of fraudulent Land Titles denying vehemently the
accusation of the Tallanos on the simple reason that the
71
CONFIDENCE instituted to protect the welfare and interest of

the people and its citizenry. The government had issued only
one Land Title OCT No. 01-4 for the whole archipelago and that
its expediencies TCT No.T-408 for the whole Cavite, Greater
Manila Area, portion of Batangas, whole of Rizal and a portion
of Laguna and that TCT No. T-498 for some municipalities and
cities of the Greater Manila Area, portion of Rizal Province,
portion of Quezon Province and Bulacan, and there after if any
other Land Titles exist other than those Land Titles allege to be
fraudulent Land Titles in character and are null and void ab initio.
Particularly in Batangas Registry of Deeds, they issued OCT No.
0-14 to destroy the credibility of the Torrens Title OCT No. 01-4.
On the issued raised by the Hon. Solicitor General

pertaining to a defective ownership of the Tallano over the
subject land which was alleged as unenforceable on the mere
reason that the vendor had not completed the requirement of
the sale involving the subject land which is the physical
delivery of the land assigned to the Tallano Heirs, said
argument is only applicable for the sale of movable property.
In a universal acceptance involving real estate transactions,
in consonance to a propriety rights and adapted doctrine
enforced by the wisdom if the Land Registration Act, physical
delivery of the land sold by the vendor to the vendee is only a
matter of satisfying the principle of fee simple which can be
done by way of execution of public instrument on conveyance
and the corresponding registration of the deeds, which is an
operative act that transfers and binds the lands. The said
72
Procedure is well taken in a case, Bautista vs. Exconde, 70 Phil.,

398; and the same was enlightened many times by the Supreme
Court Decision in similar circumstance and finally actual
possession over the land acquired and purchased is merely
incidental to the ownership title. However, the same procedure
had been applied by the Tallanos heirs, when they registered the
land area they acquired from the land owner, both Don Annacleto
Madrigal Acop and Don Esteban Benitez Tallano registered their
ownership by annotations at the back of the Title No. T-408 and
duly recorded in the Register of Deeds of Pasig in the Province of
Rizal, before the relevant documents were reported vanished.
The issue that the Titles, TCT No. T-408 and TCT No. T498, has no longer probative value on the reasons that the
Spanish Titles and Spanish Mortgage Law is supposed to be
abrogated for national interest, on salient point that said Land
Titles cannot facilitate the purpose of the true owners, said
argument is baseless on very reasons that, as manifested by the
Tallanos heirs, said TCT No. T-408 and TCT No. T-498 could not
be affected by the laws which are not yet enacted even if for
national interest although it come from its origin of CCT No. 014, Spanish Title per se, but said OCT No. 01-4 was registered on
October 3, 1904 so its corresponding Decree of Registration,
particularly Decree No. 297 and Royal Decree 01-4 protocol as it
had been issued on that same date confirming that the said land
had been covered by Land Registration Act 496. It clearly
connotes beside of that another Land Authority requirements
under Cadastral Act 2259, the subject land had been placed
73
for compliance so PSU 2031 and Plan II-69 for the whole
archipelago had been issued affirming that there were cadastral
survey over the estate and were approved on March 6, 1915,
March 4, 1916 and September 9, 1916, respectively clarifying
absolute ownership of the land owner, late Prince Lacan Acuna
Tagean Tallano. That said TCTs specifically TCT No. T-408 and
TCT No. T-498 furtherly are already land Titles in Torrens
character. Besides, any Law, Proclamation, Ordinances, Letter of
Instructions or Decrees have to retroactive effect over the land
evidenced by Torrens System. And the same OCT No. T-01-4 and
TCT No. T-408 and TCT No. T-498 cannot be nullified in as much
as the judgment of the Land Registration Court had met the prerequisites of jurisprudence over the land case for registration and
had been rendered by the Judge who handled the land
registration proceedings in accordance with due process as the
requirement set forth by the law, Rule 132 and of Rule 135
defined by the Rule of Court of the Republic of the Philippines.
Going back to the main aspect of the Motion of the

Republic of the Philippines to resolve first ownership over the
said land covered by OCT No. 01-4 is tantamount of a petition for
the re-hearing of the case, a manifestation of rising the dead
from the tomb, in a clear sense which is obviously unconstitutional.
Ultimately, it is for a revival of the case which this Presiding
Judge had lost his jurisdiction over the case after the Decision of
the L a n d R e g i s t r a t i o n c o u r t h a d b e e n f i n a l l y d e c i d e d a n d
correspondingly terminated upon issuance of Decree No. 297
74
PSU 2031 for the Greater Manila Area and that Royal Decree 01-4
Protocol with that II-69 executed and had been reaffirmed and
registered in the Land Registration Book and it had sustained by
operation of the law, which held on October 4, 1904 for the
issuance of Decree No. 297 in favor of the Tallano, which, in
deed, all rights and interests thereat embracing the land in
question were completely turned over to the Tallanos Heirs. And
their Titles and interests prescribed in that judgment has
remained sustainable and enforceable in Coram Nobis. But let us
analyze the context of the provision of Sec. 1,Rule 52 and that
Sec. 1 and Sec. 3, Rule 121 of the Rules of Court, which read as
follows: Rule 52, Sec. 1, Motion for Re-hearing: A motion for
re-hearing or reconsideration shall be made ex parte and filed
within fifteen (15) days from notice of final order or judgment.
No more than one motion or re-hearing or reconsideration shall
be filed without express leave of court. A second motion for
reconsideration may be presented within fifteen (15) days from
notice of the judgment or order deducting the time from which
the first motion has been pending. Certainly, this is true in the
case o government against the rightful owner, said re-opening of
the case is impossible to be happened, otherwise, the Republic is
guilty of Res Judicata.
In the Motion of the Republic of the Philippines dated

March 8, 1971 to resolve the ownership over OCT No. 01-4 in
their favor in the absence of the legitimate heirs of Prince
Lacan Tagean Tallano which was denied on June 7, 1971 and
another Motion but the same was denied on August 19, 1971,
75
again, it was on their same allegation that Notice of hearing

had been received by their office only on May 7, 1971 were
clear manifestation for dilatory tactics of the government. Like
previously, as alleged, they only received said corresponding
Notices on April 19, 1971, yet, their constitutional rights, as
alleged, were buried for quite some time without the privilege
of due process. Said reasons were made as repeated alibis,
illogical and irresponsible form of reasons but merely as an
scapegoat to their gross negligence because it turned out that
they were inconsistent to the existing court records pertaining
to proofs of mail and Sheriffs Services which were very evident
after the written certification of the Chief, Registry Division
Manila Postal Office that had been issued said notices were
delivered as evidenced by Registered mail with Return Cards
through the Manila Postal Service. Indeed, they succeeded for
the issuance of July 14, 1964 Decision nullifying above given
OCT from OCT No. 01 up to OCT No. 100,000 in favor of the
Republic only, I repeat, the Decision had been reversed by way
of Intervention filed by the Heir of Don Esteban Benitez
Tallano, in the person of Benito Agustin Tallano, opposing not
the cancellation over the fake Titles, per se, but the award of
reconveyance to the Republic of the Philippines by reason of no
eligible heirs of the true land owner.
We can not furtherly sustain the argument of the Hon.

Solicitor General as to retroactive effect of that incoming
laws even if for national reasons because it would create
great menace all over the country since the law has no
76
retroactive effect over the probative value of TCT No. T-408 and
TCT No. T-498 and that OCT No. 01-4 because the said Titles are
Torrens Titles in nature although it came from the origin of OCT
No. 01-4, a Spanish Title, per se but duly registered under Land
Registration Act 496 on October 3, 1904 and under Cadastral Act
2259, an essential requisite of Torrens Title. Generally, as it
turn to usual practice once a Land Title in OCT successfully
transferred into Transfer of Certificate of Title, it absorbs the
characteristics of being Torrens Title which has been adopted for
many years by those in the real estate business and by the land
authority, except, when we will reverse the method, yet, if ever
we do so, it is a direct aversion to the rules and policies
prescribed by Land Registration Act 496, which reciprocally
deteriorate the virtue of Torrens System.
Besides, such Motion of the Republic of the Philippines as,

I repeatedly quoted, can not be given due consideration on the
sense that the case had been closed and terminated finally to
resolve the ownership issue since the year 1904 after it became
final and executory and the same was executed as started herein
which this contention had been subscribed by no less than Hon.
Solicitor General Felix V. Makasiar in his defense in a case,
people vs. Pinuilla, et. al., Supra, which read as follows:
Even so, it may not be disturbed and modified. Our recent
interpretation of the law may be applied to new cases, but
certainly not to an old one finally and conclusively determined.
77
And it has been held in a case, 21 CJS 330, cited in people

vs. Pinuilla, et. al., Supra, that:
Law is a present and prospective force, that law need some
stability of administration, that the law is all the law there is,
that law is more for the parties than for the courts, that people
will rely upon and adjust their behavior in accordance with the
laws, be it judicial or legislative or both.
Corollary to the Motion for the Issuance of Reconstituted

Copies of both owner and duplicate copies of the original of OCT
No. T-01-4, let us diagnose the legal impediments that had arose
in the accounts of the opposition of the LRA thru its Honorable
Administrator Antonio Noblejas against the issuance of the
owners and duplicate copies of the said reconstituted Land
Titles, particularly the OCT No. T-01-4 for and in favor of the
heirs of the late Prince Lacan Acuna Tagean Tallano and Prince
Julian Macleod Tallano, whether such impediments are applicable
to affect the ownership interest of the Heirs of the real owners
and the Tallano clans.
Comments of the LRA and the Republic of the Philippines,

we believe that purpose both Judgment with Compromise
agreement between the Republic of the Philippines and the
Tallanos shall hamper by legal impediments in the issuance
of said Reconstituted OCT.
And the same should not be
implemented for the issuance of both owners and duplicate

copies of the original of the Reconstituted Land
78
Titles OCT No. T-01-4, by the Honorable Register of Deeds of the

Province of Bulacan of the following grounds:
1.
There is no law authorizing the reconstitution of the lost

owners and duplicate copies of Tiles OCT No. T-01-4, TCT
No. T-408 and TCT No. T-498 administratively. Under the
Land Registration Act (Act 141), if a duplicate certificate is
lost, is destroyed, a suggestion of the fact of such loss or
destruction may be filed by the Registered Owner or other
person in interest before the Court of First Instance of the
Province or City where the land is situated. In other words,
the procedure should be judicial in character.
2.
Assuming but not admitting that the lost owners copy may
be reconstituted administratively, we believe the same
should not be given due course because of the spurious
characteristics of said Title, among others, as shown
hereunder:
A.
Plan II-69, as mentioned on the face of the Title has

not yet been applied for original registration as
appearing in our Survey Book.
B.
Decree No. 297 covers only a parcel of land in Cavite

and not in Greater Manila Area as per our records.
C.
That alleged derivative Title which is OCT No. T-01-4 is

a well known Spanish Title.
D.
Plan PSU 2031 mentioned at the back of the Title is

the same Private Survey Number, involved in the
survey in the so-called Hacienda Maricaban, which
supposedly covered large track of land also in the
79
name of Fort William McKinley and Pedro Roxas,

including portion of Taguig, Paranaque, and Pasay City,
registered in the name of the Republic of the
Philippines.
3.
Without evaluating its authenticity, it is obvious that the

proposed Judgment with Compromise Agreement could have
the same effect over the subject land because it can not be
enforced by execution. Under the Supreme Court Ruling,
the land data, if any there be found, dubious the same
cannot utilize for public good because it is null and void ab
initio in origin.
ORIGINAL SGD
ANTONIO NOBLEJAS
Administrator
This Honorable Court could not be convinced on the
Number 1 reason given by the Hon. Administrator due to the fact

that the issuance of Reconstituted Land Title, particularly OCT
No. T-01-4, based on the Judicial Judgment rendered by then
designated Judge of the Land Registration Court, which said
Decision and Order had been executed on October 4, 1904 in
accordance with LRA 496 of 1902 clearing from it its legal
impediment for the non-enforceability subsided itself as if a
bubbles in the air. Besides, the Court proceedings has been
conducted in accordance with the set up jurisprudence based on
the Rules of Court 132 and Rule 135 and in accordance with
Section 15 of the Republic No. 26 which belies that the
Reconstitution is an Administrative Procedure, definitely, its a
JUDICIAL IN CHARACTER per se.
80
Be reminded that incorporated to this complaint filed by the

Republic of the Philippines against the land owner is Quieting/
Reconveyance of the land covered by these Titles. Therefore, it
is a rule all rights of the party in interest over the land should be
absolutely reconveyed to the true owner.
Pertaining to spurious origin of said II-69, PSU 2031,

Decree No. 297, these were also subjected into alterations,
manipulation and distortion, particularly that Decree No. 297 was
altered for certain Manuel Ruiz y Javier and in favor of the
Maricaban Estate to degrade the credibility of the Tallano and
Acop over the estate ownership and they created a vacuum which
is another basis for the land grabbers to proliferate their
unlawful activities upon raping the virtue of the countrys Torrens
System by way of mass production of invalid Land Titles for
continues cycles of scam to the final prejudice of the government
and the general public. It was a known fact when both LRC
Commissioner Antonio Noblejas and Asst. Commissioner Gregorio
Bilog, Jr. divulged the Modus Operandi of the organized syndicate
in both LRC and in the Bureau of Lands then to defeat the
interest of the herein land owners, which were an admission of
these land authority that the eligible land records and documents
of the Tallanos over OCT No. T-01-4, TCT No. T-408, and TCT
No. T-498 had been subjected into manipulation, alteration, and
falsification orchestrated by no other than in the LRC and the
Bureau of Lands in connivance by those in the Register of Deeds.
81
It was very apparent on what the present administration

intend to do as well to our Spanish Mortgage Law which is
against the wisdom of Torrens System but, of course, with the
same dirty objective to the predicament of the real owners under
OCT No. 01-4. Besides, that said OCT No. 01-4 based on this
record of Honorable Court, it was satisfactorily established that
said land Title has been registered under Land Registration Act
acquired-Torrens Title in character after compliance with the
requirements set forth in the Land Authority to issue Decree No.
297 on October 3, 1904 and affirming Royal Decree 01-4 Protocol
embracing the entire archipelago together with its Cadastral No.
4720 CLRO Case No. 475.
Beside, based on agreement predicated by this Decision

with Compromise Agreement, five years prescription of enforceability
of said Judgment to reconstitute said OCT No. T-01-4 and their
TCT No. T-408 and TCT No. T-498 and eventually to issue the
Reconstituted copies of its original and duplicates of said Titles
should be reckoned only from January 1, 1999, the period of
which the Republic of the Philippines promise and commence to
pay its remaining obligations amounting to P1 billion as damages
to the Intervenors as agreed and emanated from this Judgment
with Compromise Agreement between the Republic of the
Philippines and the Tallanos heirs, while, partial payment had
been paid to the Tallano amounting to P2 billion pesos in the
form of Land Bank Bond Certificate which will mature in
1978, but it was appealed for another 20 years moratorium
ending December 31, 1998, from which the government will
82
have to pay the land owners heirs initially on six (6) installment
payment over that P3 Billion pesos damages.
My great predecessor of this noble profession taught me this

Judicial Wisdom and had lent me a Noble Judicial Narration in the
preservation of untainted justice involving PARI MATERIA IN for
immediate application of the law and not only to one. For the
TRUTH, this Court is ready to open the clandestine of those who
had sown detriment to the lawful land owners. So the MIGHTY OF
THE COURT OF JUSTICE shall be utilized as it provided based on
the authority prescribed in the Revised Penal Code against the
violators who usurped the rights of the land owners. Like in this
instance case, the holder of that devoid OCT 369, its technical
data were copied from the technical data of OCT No. T-01-4 but
the Land Registration Authority tolerates the parties by the use of
such fraudulent documents like those OCT 333, OCT 730, OCT 735,
OCT 291, OCT 777, OCT 614, OCT 4085, OCT 543, OCT 222, OCT
4136, and all OCT bearing No. 01 up to OCT 100,000 were found
defective defrauding the general public and depriving as well the
legitimate land owners.
Based on the report of the NBI and reciprocally affirmed by

two (2) authorities in land, that said OCT 369 was declared null
and void due to its non-existence which merely derogates the
authenticity of the eligible one, OCT No. T-01-4. Besides, that II4810 to 4813 like that II-4812 are a parcel of land situated in Bo.
Tinampaan, Cadiz, Negros Occidental while that II-4813 covers the
land situated in Iloilo, Iloilo. Besides, allegedly, said OCT
83
369 in the name of Hermogenes Rodriguez and Antonio Rodriguez,

it appears that it was issued pursuant to a Decision of Hon. S.
del Rosario of the Court of First Instance of Rizal on March 8,
1907, while that year, it should be Province of Morong then,
besides, in the year 1907, jurisdiction to issue said OCT exclusively
resides in the Court of Land Registration and only on July 1, 1914
superseding the authority of the land Registration Court. Indeed,
the Court of First Instance then in the year 1907 had not yet
acquired said jurisdiction.
The Land Title Form used is land Registration Form No. 1 as

could gleared from the left hand corner of the form, yet, the NBI
investigator divulged that GLRO Form No. 1 in 1907was not been
introduced yet as Official Form on that year. That Decree issued
was Decree 160 (not 297) since that Decree 160 was issued on
March 19, 1904, and not March 8, 1904, per Record of Book of
Decrees for Ordinary Land Registration Cases is Book 1. That such
Decree covers only one parcel of land located in Tondo, Manila
with an area of 354.03 square meters only.
Another OCT No. 820 which is questionable in technical

characteristics after confirming that said OCT allegedly have a
corresponding Decree referred to No. 1424 embracing a land in
Quezon Province which was issued on January 31, 1905 which
directly subsided itself after the r e c o r d e d s u r v e y d a t e w a s d o n e
o n N o v e m b e r 1 5 , 1 9 0 6 , a contradictory to oneself considering
that Decree No. had been found empty for Technical Description,
therefore, it should be no effect.
84
The technical description itself which resulted on the survey

conducted on November 15, 1906 turns younger later than the
said Decree No. 1424 considering that land Registration Act has
been on its enforceability as a law. And the name of the owners,
certain Patricia Tiongson, written thereon had not, in any way,
applied for Application for Registration of the subject land.
Neither of Free Patent Application had been used which means
that the origin of the land itself comes from nowhere; connotes,
these are imaginary persons in character deserve to devoid their
interest over the subject lands.
That OCT No. 994, in the same way, is in the name of

certain Mariano Severo Tuazon Y dela Paz, et. al., with
corresponding Decree Number 36455 was lent and adopted from
TCT No. 870, while on the column for the Decree No. written thereon
was clearly empty in data en toto. It connotes NO ENTRY. And the
date of Decree Issued also in blank (NO ENTRY). Also, as it was
divulged by the NBI investigator, one OCT No. 994 have two (2)
different record numbers, such as 4429 and 1559. That its expediency
TCT No. 84960 in the name of Moises Buenaventura bave a similar
Decree of the same OCT while said Decree was copied from the
Decree of TCT 870, its OCT is entirely different from that OCT 994.
That OCT 735 is also in the name of Severo Tuazon Y dela

Paz, et. al., its original survey held on December 1910, June
1911 from which the point of reference pointed in the survey
was CBM No. 37, its technical data referred to No. 13C
Cadastral 13) for Manila, which pointed clearly that
85
Manila had started its Cadastral Survey only on September 1914,

and was approved officially on January 3, 1916, September 9, 1916
while Cadastral Act 2259 took effect only on February 11, 1913.
And the Decree No. 17431 of said Land Title was issued on July 9,
1914. This showed entirely inconsistent of its data beyond its
standard chronological order to wit which are in contradictory to
the Torrens System. That the survey and approval should be
dated earlier than its Decree and its Cadastral Survey when intend
to apply and should be later than the Cadastral Act itself, which
were enforceable after the Cadastral Act 2259 had been
implemented into law on February 11, 1913.
That OCT 730 again was registered in the Registration Book

No. A-7 in the name of Severo Tuazon Y dela Paz, Jose Tuazon
dela Paz, et. al., under Decree No. 7672, but the land has been
found in Marikina, not in Pasig, nor in Quezon City and neither
elsewhere, the total area of which is underminable which is void in
character. This was divulged based on the written report of
Gregorio Bilog Jr., the deputy LRC Administrator as requested by
then Hon. Solicitor General Felix Makasiar in the year 1964, now,
member of this Highest Court of the land.
Corollary
of
this
end, let
traverse
our judicial
functions into another horizon of responsibilities
as
administrator of justice not only for the deprived partner

but for the entire Filipino people for our nations economic
breakthrough from its century ailing and sickly society with
suffering citizenry. That what involves n this scenario is
86
not only the government of His Excellency President Ferdinand E.

Marcos but also President Marcos himself, requiring the President
to restore the missing gold reserves of the Republic of the
Philippines in the designated Central Bank vaults consisting of
617,500 metric tons of 12.5 gold nuggets lent and entrusted by
the Royal Family, the Tagean-Tallano clans, through the late
President Manuel Roxas, in favor of the Filipino people just to
complete the requirements set forth needed in the establishment
of Philippine Central Bank in the year 1949. That the said gold
reserves paramountly attributed in the stability of peso value
between 1949 to 1960, ranging the peso value of P2.00 for $1.00
U. S. dollar to P4.00 to $1.00 U. S. dollar.
But beyond the knowledge of the Filipino people, the basic

root that caused the Marcos-Macapagal quarrel was that the
unlawful acts of then Senate President Ferdinand E. Marcos
which emanated from illegal transport of some three (3) metric
tons of gold nuggets to London and another seven (7) tons to
Zurich, Germany without permission from the private owner, the
Royal family, the Tagean-Tallano Clan, and of no consent of the
then President Diosdado Macapagal which were taken in place all
of September 23, 1963, considering that gold bullion was part
and portion of the 617,500 metric tons of 12.5 gold nuggets
entrusted to the national government on January 7, 1949 by the
caretaker of the Royal Clan, Rev. Fr. Jose Antonio Diaz, his
alias name is Col. Severino Garcia Sta. Romana, for and in
behalf of the Tagean-Tallano Royal Family.
87
That the Reverend father, before this Court and designated

Amicus curae on May 5, 1972, he testified in an open court that
he is the caretaker of around 617,500 metric tons of gold
nuggets own by the Royal Family, the Tagean-Tallano Family
headed by Don Esteban Benitez Tallano which they transported
to Vatican City in the year 1939 to secure the gold bullion from
the escalating World War II, and the Royal Family maintained it
up to 1948 and was withdrawn and transported to the Philippines
through the young lawyer Ferdinand E. Marcos in 1949, then.
That in the presence of Atty. Lorenzo Tanada, the Clans

lawyer, Don Esteban Benitez Tallano and Benito Tallano, the
direct owners of the said gold bullion; and in the presence of
then His Excellency, late President Manuel Acuna Roxas, then La
Union Congressman, Bishop Enrique C. Sobrepena Sr., the
second cousin of Maria Cristina Camacho, wife of said Benito
Tallano, Reverend Father Jose Antonio Diaz turned over said
617,500 old bullion which he kept long time ago under the
blessings of some higher Spanish officials in a dungeon in Fort
Santiago in behalf of the Royal Family, Prince Lacan Acuna
Tagean Tallano who went to Europe before the war and
eventually under the custody of then the old national treasury in
Intramuros, Manila to give way for the establishment of the
Central Bank of the Philippines;
That the said Reverend Father, in his testimony

before the Court and the Amicus Curae, admitted that
the gold inventory intact in the Central Bank vaults up to
88
the year 1964, Quote: except that some 10 tons in my presence

were forcibly withdrawn by the Senate Security Force led then by
Ex-Senate President Ferdinand E. Marcos, now, President of this
Republic on September 8, 1963 and had transported to nowhere;
That said Reverend Father was the one who gave idea to
His Excellency President Ferdinand E. Marcos to undertake the
illegal withdrawal of the said gold bullion from the Central Bank
vaults on the sense that Don Esteban Benitez Tallano, heirs of
the late Prince Julian Macleod Tallano, owner of the said big
bullion consisting of 617,500 metric tons died in Europe during
the American Occupation in 1898. And the Reverend Father
alleged: the heir Don Esteban Benitez Tallano died also during
the Japanese time, yet, the asset left with no will and no
legitimate heir, in spite of the fact that the truth was that the
late Prince has a last will and testament entrusted to the custody
of Reverend Father Jose Antonio Diaz clarifying that he has
surviving heirs, Don Esteban Benitez Tallano, Benito Tallano and
the only son of Benito Tallano, Julian Morden Tallano who also
inherited the Title of Prince, bestowed upon him by the Royal
Family in accordance with the code of Koran in as much as
although he has a fifty percent (50%) British blood, his
ancestors were Muslim-British Lords. That said Prince Julian
Morden Tallano has been authorized to administer and, when
necessary, withdraw the said assets deposited in the
Central Bank vaults and all gold bullion deposited in Fort
Knox and in Zurich and in other countries that served as
trustee of His Excellency Ferdinand E. Marcos and he is
89
Entitled to collect the 5% of the 1 percent royalty fee of the

national government starting from the year 1965, the unpaid
period of the government in as much as since 1949 to 1964 the
government had fully complied the royalty fee;
That the Reverend Father also admitted that the only gold
bullion balance left in the Central Bank vaults are consisting of
400,000 metric tons; others, some 217,500 metric tons between
1965 to 1970 were illegally melted into another form of 75 kilos
per bar and were transported to different countries in Red China,
Hongkong, Switzerland, Germany, Australia, U.S.A., and in
England;
Here is the excerpt from the testimonies of Reverent

Father Jose Antonio Diaz, alias Col. Severino Sta. Romana, taken
in an open court room on 10:35 A.M. of May 5, 1972, before this
Court and Amicus Curae:
Atty. Cesar Paras Sr.:
With your permission, your Honor,

supplemental to my cross examination
to Reverend Father Jose Antonio Diaz,
vital witness in connection with the
illegal transport of said gold bullion of
my client, the Royal Family, TageanTallano Clan, which caused the sudden
collapse of the value of Philippine peso,
may I ask some important questions,
your Honor, relevant to the Sworn
90
Affidavit he executed before a notary

public.
Court:
Yes, you may provided the questions

are relevant to the subject matter.
Amicus Curae:
What is the purpose?
Yes, your Honor. To clarify matters in

accordance with missing gold reserves.
Do you own this typewritten Sworn

Affidavit, Reverend Witness and how
did you come to know about the illegal
transport of the deposited gold bullion
from the Central Bank Vaults and that
of its exact date?
Witness: Rev.Fr. Jose
I was the one who signed this
Antonio Diaz
affidavit, Sir, and being the caretaker

of the Royal Family, I was the
authorized signatory for the withdrawal
of that deposited gold bullion from the
Central Bank Vaults and I used it to
withdraw the same as instructed to me
by then Honorable Senate President
Ferdinand E. Marcos on September 8,
1963. Besides, I was the one who
91
accompanied Don Esteban Benitez

Tallano in transporting the said gold
bullion around 617,000 metric tons to
Vatican City, your honor, sometime in
1939, to protect the item from the fast
escalating World War II, then, your
Honor.
How many kilos did you withdraw that

time?
Witness: Rev. Fr. Jose
Based on my arrangement with then
Jose Antonio Diaz
Senate President Marcos, we will

withdraw only 3 tons or 3,000 kilos but
when I and Senate President Marcos
were already in the Central Bank
Vaults, Central Bank Governor Andres
Castillo and Senator Marcos convinced
me to sign the withdrawal document
containing 35,000 tons that time, I
have no choice but to sign.
Reverend Witness after signing the

withdrawal document you mentioned,
what transpired next?
Right at that moment, Senator Marcos
Antonio Diaz
withdrew the gold bullion from the

vault and loaded these on four (4)
trailer trucks escorted by
92
Philippine Army member led by

unknown colonel and 4 members of the
Philippine Constabulary and were driven
toward the departure area of the Manila
International Airport, then, Sir;
Reverend Witness, when you were in

the MIA departure area, what follows
next?
I witnessed the unloading of the
Antonio Diaz
gold from the trailers, Sir, which were

packed in 70 pieces of wooden crates
and they loaded these in the belly of
the KLM Airline that time.
Reverend Witness, you said you were

there when the repacking of the gold
had been done, how long did it take?
Because when we arrived in the
Antonio Diaz
Central Bank, the time was 8:00 oclock

in the morning. When they finished
packaging and loading to the trailers,
the time was 3:00 oclock in the
afternoon, so approximately Sir, it took
seven (7) hours long when we finished.
93
Being the caretaker of the TallanoTagean familys gold bullion, can you
tell to this Honorable Court how many
and what is the exact number of kilos
do the Tagean-Tallano Family had
deposited in the vaults of the Central
Bank?
Exactly around 617,000 metric tons that

the Tagean-Tallano had deposited to
the vault through me in the year 1949
which we transported from the Vatican
City in the year 1948 the same were
lent to the national government to meet
the required gold reserves of the newly
organized and installed Central Bank
then. But lately, when I went to the
Central Bank along with the heirs, Don
Esteban Benitez Tallano and Prince
Julian Morden Tallano for verification
and inventory recently, we found that
the only exact inventory remained
intact in the vault then was 400,000
metric tons, while, what I withdrew that
time beyond the knowledge of the
owner through instruction of then
Senate President Marcos, now President
of this Republic was 35,000 metric tons
94
leaving a supposed inventory balance of

482,500 metric tons, but this was
inconsistent to our findings where the
last inventory balance was only 400,000
metric tons. Definitely, Sir, they used
fraudulently my signature to withdraw
such 82,500 metric tons.
Solicitor Guttierez:
Your Honor, I wish to call the attention

of the Honorable Court to strike the
words as follows: but this was
inconsistent to our findings where the
last inventory balance was only 400,000
metric tons. Definitely, Sir, they used
fraudulently my signature to withdraw
such 82,500 metric tons.
Amicus Curae:
For what purpose?
Solicitor Guttierez:
The answer of the witness was not

responsive to the question profound by
the counsel. Beside, his statement
about the withdrawal of 82,500 metric
tons is merely more on hearsay because
he was not there when the alleged
withdrawal of 82,500 metric tons took
place.
95
Objection, your Honor, the witness has

the right opinion which is valid based
on his authority designated to him by
my client that he is the only person
that has an authority to withdraw said
gold bullion deposits.
Court:
Alright, just maintain the record,

eventually, we will cross the bridge
when needed.
Enough over such testimonies that that we can no longer deny

the veracity of the Reverend Fathers Statement, and in as much as no
opposition from the government except they signified their conformity
to issue this Decision with Compromise Agreement between the
Republic of the Philippines represented by His Excellency President
Ferdinand E. Marcos and his Solicitor General and by the party in
interest, Mr. Benito A. Tallano and his son, Prince Julian Morden
Tallano, represent by their Legal Counsel, Atty. Cezar Paras Sr.
Lets go back to other subject matter about the land, that a

Land Registration Court proceeding is an action in rem, therefore,
the decree of registration after it has been issued to the party in
interest binds upon and conclusive against all persons of any nature
including this government, the Republic of the Philippines and its
branches, agencies and instrumentalities, regardless or not they
were notified of the filing of application intended for registration,
or neither or have appeared and filed for the corresponding
answer against such application, because, as a rule all
96
parties in interest are considered as notified by the publication

required by the law. This case was strongly cited in Sorsogon, et
al vs. Makalintal, et al, 45 O.G.9, 3819, September 1949, when
the Royal family, the Tagean-Tallano Clan, maintains their
position that their Land Title after it was published in the Gaceta
de Manila sometime in March 14, 1902 under the operation of
Torrens System in accord with LRA 496 of 1902, their OCT No.
01-4 which was issued in the year 1764 with the decree of
registration turned conclusive because such decree of
registration, once became final, could not be subjected for attack
by any person either by reason of minor age of the co-owner
neither would there be found credible in the allegations that the
decreed persons, claiming as owners, held the property in trust
or as co-heirs when they filed their application for registration
and correspondingly obtained registration in their names, without
opposition, upon establishing factual information their
predecessors had been open as owners, and in what capacity
they gained the same which is true in a case of Gonzaga, et al
vs. Guanzon, et al, 68 Phil. 351 (1939).
Similarly, this Court cannot sustain the defense of the

National Government, the heirs of Hermogenes Rodriguez, the
heirs of Mariano Severo Tuazon and the Tuazon Company,
including the defense of the Ortigas and Company that they
were not around as party in interest when the decree of
Registration over the same subject land had been conducted
in proceedings since in the rule of Registration, Decree of
Registration could not be re-opened by reasons of absence,
97
minority or by reason of disability of any person adversely

affected by said decree of registration, not even by any
proceeding in any court, like this for instance, for reversing
such judgment but may be subjected, nevertheless, to every
right of any person including the government and its branches
thereof, their interest had been deprived by actual fraud should
be filed in the Court of origin or any court of competent
jurisdiction within one-year after the entry of such decree
instituted as registered, which patently true in a case of Cruz
vs. Del Valle, 55 O.G.P 9901, November 23, 1952, CA; Samonte
et al vs. Descallar, et al, 107 Phil 198 (1960).
In the case at bar, both the National Government and the

herein oppositors failed and neither its government
instrumentalities and agencies had filed their petition for review
after the Decree of Registration No. 297 for the legalization of
OCT 01-4, in accordance with the Land Registration Act 496,
had been registered on October 4, 1904, which said OCT 01-4
and its Decree of Registration becomes incontrovertible.
This case is a petition for the reconstitution of OCT 01-4

with annulment of all the titles described in a certification
issued by the Administrator of the Land Registration
Commission, Hon. Antonio Noblejas, and with re-conveyance
of the subject land which are in the possession of the
heirs of the late Prince Julian Macleod Tallano, filed by
the national government thru its Solicitor General Felix
Makasiar, which the same, the national government had
98
complied with the jurisdictional requirements enforced by

Republic Act No. 26 and Circular No. 47 of February 19, 1949,
but to no avail one more time, the National Government lacked
stronger evidences against the true owner, the Tagean-Tallano
clan. What the evidences the government had used and
presented were those documents and OCT 01-4 in the name of
the late Prince Lacan Acuna Tagean Tallano on strong
confidence the late Prince have no issue neither has surviving
heirs. Such action of the government is only proper under the
Principle of Public Domain against the oppositor-claimants who
have also stronger evidences and titles through these were
issued in the name of Prince Lacan Acuna Tagean Tallano, then
eventually to the late Prince Julian Macleod Tallano in the year
1864 which was affirmed in accordance with the Land
Registration Act 496 of the year 1902. And parenthetically, the
same was re-adjudicated in accordance with Cadastral Act of
2259 on March 14, 1914. While the Land Title of the
oppositors-other claimants were issued only in the later year of
1902, some in the year 1906, some in the year 1914, 1926, etc.
Except the OCT 369 of the Hermogenes Rodriguez which has
been allegedly in the year 1864,1888, 1896 and 1892 but it
becomes the subject of this ruling against said OCT 369, which
its decree was found fraudulently defective in character as it
were divulged in this context.
Apparently, the National Government failed to refute

the existence of the lawful heirs of the late Prince Lacan
Tagean and Prince Julian Macleod Tallano on the mere fact
99
that some of these heirs became instrumental in the establishment

of Central Bank of the Philippines in the year 1949 after Don
Esteban Benitez Tallano, accompanied by Reverend Father Jose
Antonio Diaz through the efforts of brilliant lawyer Attorney
Ferdinand E. Marcos, had transported the gold bullion from Vatican
City which were used by the late President Manuel Roxas, cousin
of Don Esteban Benitez Tallano, as Gold Reserves requirements.
This information do not intend to complicate the issue but a sound
proof as to the existence of the heirs of the late Prince that the
government can not deny but rather it compel to be guilt of
Estopel which was raised by the surviving heirs.
Truly, the Republic of the Philippines had committed estopel

and had rebound to become not party in interest over the subject
land in the presence of surviving-lawful heirs. Occasionally, it
must be obliged for re-conveyance for all the lands under its
custody as illegal detaineers, or in graceful sense as trustee for
which it requires a re-conveyance in favor of its principal or
trustor, as prescribed by Civil Code of the Philippines.
The
fundamental rule over this issue, after the
registered land had lapsed for one year, a decree of

registration can no longer
issuance is
be opened for review even if its
attended by actual fraud which the government
failed to file said basic action.
And the chances of the
government to open as an aggrieved party remains an open

opportunity considering the land had not been passed to
100
innocent purchaser for value, yet, an action for re-conveyance

still available that reached to this case against the TageanTallano clan, but still the Republic of the Philippines, failed to
solidly and constructively established its interest over the land.
Under these circumstances, the true owner asserted his
ownership and title to the land and this Court can not neglect
its paramount duty to exercise its power for equity and justice,
so correspondingly, an urgent Court Order to cancel the
involved land titled of other land claimants including the title
used by the Republic of the Philippines, in order to direct other
unlawful owners and that Republic of the Philippines to reconvey the land holdings under their custody or as trust is
inevitable to the rightful owner. The rules and order of reconveyance is just, equitable and imperative, the only course
of action in the Court to eradicate the unmanageable evil and
anomaly in the LRC and in the Register of Deeds, where the
lawful registered owner, should have a holder of Torrens Title
for the land they acquired by their own labours, sweat and
exerted efforts for quite so long but they and their
predecessors could not exploit it because it is possessed by
uneligible parties under the concept of ownership. To hold
such land beyond the true and lawful orders of land ownership
in greater sense would vindicate only the land grabber for
glory directly a dismay to the moral value in human relations
that no person shall unjustly enrich himself at the expense of
eligible one.
101
To supplement the issue, there must be annulment for

those titles that has been reported fraudulent in character to
prevent the general public from further damage or worst as it
may be. So it would not be precluded for the annulment filed by
the Republic of the Philippines that the oppositors had asserted
its rights beyond possibility by reason of simple possession of
registered Certificate of Titles which said reason is not within the
ambit of the law in the Torrens System because, to the contrary,
the Supreme Court cited the incident in a case Vital vs. Anore, et
al, 1952, that any Free Patent or subsequent Title issued
pursuant thereto is null and void ab initio. Because on the other
hand, an adverse owner of a registered land undisturbed in his
possession thereon for a period of more than fifty years and
without any knowledge that the same subject land he actually
tilled and occupied has been registered in the name of another
person is not barred from filing an action for re-conveyance
which, in effect, the herein true owner had sought the assistance
of this Court under this proceeding considering the owner is the
adverse respondent to the case at bar so he seeks a reconveyance and quieting the aforementioned Titles of the
subject land, who was, being the lawful owner, so confident
relying upon a Torrens Title which could have fraudulently
issued by wrong claimant. Similarly, actions for re-conveyance
complained against the National Government by reason of null
and void ab initio principle, for a claim of prescription on the
action by the National Government and other oppositors would
be unavailing, which was affirmed in a case Agne vs.
Director of Lans, Supra citing Laguna vs. Lavantino, 1941
102
71 Phil. 566, Corpus, et al, vs. Beltran, et al, a955, 97 Phil. 722).
Furthermore, whereas the herein respondent-lawful land

owner holder of Torrens Tile who has been in possession of the
subject land in dispute, his action to quiet the aforesaid titles
against the government and other parties is imprescriptible in
nature (Baladay vs. Castrillo, et al, 1961, SCRA 1064,
Villanueva, et al vs. Portigo, et al, 1969 29, SCRA 99, Ramirez
vs. Court of Appeals, et al, 1969, 30 SCRA 297).
On the issue of laches as a defense of the Ortigas and

Company against the Tallanos jointly augmented by its corespondents and other party in interest led by Honorable
Solicitor General, Tuason and Company, Inc Bonifacio Regalado,
the heirs of Atty. Gregorio and Salvador Araneta, the Ayala
Corporation, the Pilar Village Corporation, Don Hermogenes
Reyes Rodriguez and heirs, the group of Manny Villar and
Company, Don Mariano San Pedro and heirs, the Piedad Estate,
the heirs of Pedro Roxas, the heirs of Patricia Tiongson, the
Tiburcio Estate and heirs, the heirs of Antonio Fael, the heirs of
Pedro and Salvador Layos, the claimants of Pasay and
Maricaban Estate, the heirs of Fernando Jacinto, the Jacinto
Steel Mills, Dr. Nicanor Jacinto, et al, the heirs of Jose Dimsum,
the heirs of Eulogio Ragua and Co., the heirs of Almeda and Co.,
Teodoro Lim and Felix Baez, the heirs of Agapito Bonson, the
administrator of proposed Bicutan-Santo-Pascual market, the
heirs of Dominador de Ocampo Buhain, the heirs of Pedro and
103
Antonio Cruz, the heirs of Ponciano Padilla, the heirs of

Fortunato, Ricardo and Maria Pantaleona Santiago, the heirs of
Sebastian Fajardo, the administrator of Nepa Q-Mart and
claimants in the person of Don Facundo, the heirs of Dona
Lourdes Ochoa Y Casal, the heirs of Antonio Aquial, the heirs of
Julian and Juan Francisco, the heirs of Santiago Garcia and Co.,
the heirs of Dona Aurora Fabela Y Cordona and Co., the heirs of
Mayor Felimon Aguilar of Las Pinas Municipal Hall, the heirs and
administrator of Sarao Motors Corporation and Francisco Motors
Corporation, the heirs and administrator of Good Year Tire
Rubber Company, the heirs and administrator of Philippine
Shares Company, the administrator of Manila Railroad Company,
the administrator of Pangasinan Transport and Co. (Pantranco
situated in Francisco del Monte), the administrator of Fort
William McKinley, the People Home and Housing Corporation,
affiliated to the National Development Corporation under the
pretext of newly proposed name of National Housing Authority,
the Commission of the Bureau of Lands and Forestry, the
administrator/director of the Land Registration Commission and,
for fairness to all, is a defense that could not be ignored if
banking to the doctrine of STALE DEMAND, an offshoot of the
law of laches, which is based upon the very foundation of
sound public policy, a prerequisite to attain peaceful society, it
is the direct diffusion of stale claims, unlike the statute of
limitations is not merely a problem of time but principally by
reason of the inequity or unreasonable acts allowing still a
right to enforce claims which lapsed by reason of abandoning
for a long period of time. Particularly this time, where
104
Aforementioned respondents and oppositors againsts the

Tagean-Tallano heirs, had many times introduced their
improvements and fencing over the areas, where hundreds of
commercial buildings, privately and publicly, including
residential subdivisions and villages were erected thereon,
which such circumstances the defense of laches is highly
appreciatable on the reason of unmanageable money cost on
the part of the developers and National Government, if the
Tallano-Tagean heirs have ignored or had never protested such
improvements which construed that they are tolerant for a
long-long years, yet, it had to prevent that laches have never
constituted, thus, ultimately barred the original owners from
recovering the possession over the Titled land by virtue of
laches, which is very true in a case, Mejia vs. Gamponia, 100
Phil. 277 (1956);Miguel vs. Catalino, 26 SCRA 2234 (1968).
On the other way around, the Tagean-Tallano heirs

strongly manifested that they did not abandon their possession
over the Titled Land. They presented strong evidences that their
action for absolute ownership and possession over the subject
lands never ends and borne out by historic judicial records which
are chronologically stated among other things as follows:
1.
Since 13 t h century, the land, called before Maharlika, now

Philippines, has a territorial area of 1,049,212.169 square
nautical miles with a total geographical area of
169,972,500 hectares of plains, mountains, forests, rivers,
and seas, more or less, it embraced four major
105
Islands for a total of 7,169 Islands, the Luzon Peninsula,

the Palawan Peninsula, the Visayas Peninsula, and the
Mindanao Peninsula, in habitation of King Luisong Tagean,
the predecessors of the Tallano-Tagean heirs, who was
been respected by the Chinese traders and emperors by
paying tribute to the said king in the form of silk cloths,
precious stones, and tons of gold.
2.
Due to economic abundance in the Islands, Ferdinand

Magellan, a Portuguese, sent a mission to explore the
possible sources of species with simultaneous propagation of
Christianism but with arrogance and envies to the abundant
resources of the archipelago beyond the knowledge of King
Phillip II, by force he conquered the Island where bloody
battle in Mactan had risen as defended by the kings eldest
son, Rajah Lapulapu in the year 1521;
3.
The invasion escalated to Manila province then where the

second eldest son, in 1571, named Rajah Soliman fought
for the defense of the area but to due to overwhelming
arms and ammunitions of the invading Spanish Imperial
Armies, the second eldest son escaped to the forested area
of Karilaya Island, then, now Province of Quezon.
4.
By the influence of the King Luisong Tagean Tallano,

he complained to the Holy See about the abusive
land grabbing of friars in the Philippines. The
complaint had been heeded. So, by the Papal grant of
106
the Patronato Real in the late 15 t h and early 16 t h century, the

Spanish Royal Crown tried to succeed to have most complete
control over the churches in the Indies, including the
Philippines. The result of which was the desolution of the
religious orders in the year 1836 and the confiscation of the
church properties, and the continued existence of the religious
orders in the Philippines was totally dependent on the political
endeavors of the government of the Royal Crown of Spain that
has a little trust and faith in their religious missions on the
account that the friars have no control of abuses, where
compassion that is supposed to be instituted for the sake of
human lives and private properties most of the time were
violated by the churches in the Philippines. Spanish Mestizo
Filipino friars hold biggest area of the subject land by way of
converting into several haciendas into their names that gave
rise to the order of the Royal Crown that Spanish Mestizo
Filipino friars and its clergy were subject to be observed
on as potential danger, and so the Royal Crown moves
more and more in the direction of annulling their influence
as response to King Luisong Tagean.
In this account, the Spanish Mestizo Filipino friars were

determined to their self-interest, land grabbing agenda by
implicating the case against native Filipino priests, who were
in possessions for the Tagean Clans objective, toward their
political aspect of secularization which furtherly emphasized
this aspect in their effort to influence government policy in the
107
pretext of the Matter of Secularization to push through for the

security of the subject lands, the whole archipelago in
particularly.
This is a direct transcript of the testimony of the Friar

Provincial before the Philippine Commission in the U.S. Senate;
over the land held for ecclesiastical or religious uses in the
Philippine Islands. Document No. 190, 56 t h U.S. Congress,
Second session, 1901.
5.
In that aforesaid area of Karilaya, Rajah Soliman married

Princess Dayang dayang Kiram and gave birth to their only
son Lacan Tagean who survived out of 18 children they were
born. Rajah Soliman died in that very birth date of the 18 t h
son at the age of 169 years old. Prince Lacan Tagean at the
age of 40 had married to Princess Rowena Ma. Elizabeth
Overbeck Macleod of Austria who sought for a succor of
British Royal Army by the Order of King George III of the
Royal Crown of Spain, on the 7 t h day of January, 1764, the
said OCT 01-4 had been issued in the name of Prince Lacan
Acuna Tagean, who inherited the title of the King Luisong
Tagean, right after the liberation of the Islands by the British
Royal Crown from the abusive Spanish conquistadors.
6.
After the King Lacan Tagean died 100 years after the said
Title OCT 01-4 had been issued in his name, he was
succeeded by his16 years old son, Prince Julian Macleod
108
Tallano in 1864 who was born on December 17, 1848, where,

again, the Tagean-Tallano encountered court challenge anew
involving the same subject land lodged by the encomienderos,
Don Hermogenes R. Rodriguez in the year 1864 alleging
before the Royal Audiencia under the Case R. D. 571 that the
said land had been a reward to them by the Royal Crown of
Spain in honor of their grandfather, Governor Miguel Lopez de
Legazpi-Rodriguez who pacified civil war in Mindanao. But
after sixteen (16) years of court battle in the Court of Royal
Audiencia, the Prince Julian Macleod Tagean Tallano has
ownership interest over the archipelago had regained the title
of ownership anew over the said Island in the year 1864, by
virtue of the Order of the Royal Crown of Spain under Royal
Decree1864 controverting the issues of land grabbing against
the Royal Crown for the main reason that the only objective of
the expedition of the Royal Crown to the Island of Maharlika,
now Philippines, is propagation of Christianism to rectify the
lives of the inhabitants with glorious affiliation to the Divine
Supreme Being, the God the Father, and not to conquest the
Maharlika kingdom;
7.
The final decision of the 1864 Royal Decree of the Royal

Crown reverting the land ownership to the Royal Family, the
Tagean-Tallano Clan, gave rise to different strategic land
grabbing by the Filipino-Spanish Mestizo that drove again the
Maharlika kingdom to massive wars in the form of rebellions
by the Kings descendants;
109
8.
Before the death of Prince Julian Macleod (Tallano) Tagean in

1898, he succeeded to win the support of the grand
government of the United States of America where the Treaty
of Paris between Spain, United States, Great Britain, France,
and Germany had been signed and enforced into law
respecting private ownership of the inhabitants and the Royal
Family of the archipelago; the Prince died on the year 1939
at the age of 91 years old by reason of heart attack in
Europe, after he transported the Tagean gold bullion of
617,500 metric tons to the Vatican City and had deposited it
to the Trust of the Holy See as escorted by Reverend Father
Robert Hayes, who was in custody of the last will and
testament involving OCT 01-4 of the archipelago and that
precious wealth whose heirs are Don Esteban Benitez Tallano
and Benito Tallano.
9.
Land grabbers Filipino Mestizo headed by Atty. Gregorio

Araneta, former lawyer of Don Esteban Benitez Tallano,
pushed their evil intent over the subject land by lobbying in
the United States Congress for the issuance of Harvey-Harding
Cutting Law, HHC, a law attempting the exclusion of foreign
land holdings in the Islands and pretext of American Military
Reservation Rights. But again said moves had not been
prospered thru the intervention of the lawyer of the Royal
Family, Atty. Hegino Benitez, the cousin of Don Esteban
Benitez Tallano and by another lawyers, Atty. Benito Legarda
and Atty. Claudio Gabriel and Francisco Ortigas and Atty. Sr.
Modesto Reyes, assisted by another two lawyers of the
110
family, Atty. Sr. Pablo Ocampo and Atty. Sr. Pedro Sotero
Laurel, that caused a root for a massive protest of the Filipino
legislators turning down said repressive laws;
10. Atty. Gregorio Araneta succeeded to be reunited with Atty. Sr.

Francisco Ortigas and other family lawyers of the clan and had
availed for the passage of another despotic law, the Land
Registration Act 496 of 1902 but again the oppositors failed to
adulterate the land area of OCT No. 01-4 and finally, failed to
oppose Royal Family ownership interest but it only
strengthened the very foundation of the Royal Family after
successfully obtaining the affirmation of Land Registration
Court then CLR Case No. 475 by the issuance of Decree 297
on October 3, 1904 again in the name of the late Prince Lacan
Acuna Tagean and Prince Julian Macleod Tallano(Tagean) who
died on December 17, 1939;
11. Evil intent to land grab the same land had never ceased. The
same oppositors lodged and lobbied for the passage of
another oppressive law under the guise of Cadastral Act 2259.
Court battle again in the Cadastral Court ended on March 14,
1914 respecting ownership in favor of the Tagean-Tallano clan
by allowing for the issuance of segregated Title under TCT
No. T-408 and TCT No. T-498, which was manifested victory
for the Tallano in court battles record by the financial support
of Don Juan Ejercito against the oppositions that caused the
approved plan of the entire archipelago under Plan II-69 in
the name of Prince Julian Macleod Tallano;
111
12. After the war, between 1948 to 1956, beyond the knowledge
of the clan, all supporting ownership evidences compiled in
the Register of Deeds of the Province of Manila, City of
Manila now, and in the Province of Rizal together those in
the Bureau of Archives, including the Plan of PSU 20131, II69, Gaceta de Manila were reported vanished and followed
by successfully alteration by the heirs of the same
oppositors in conspiracy of the administrator and officers of
the Rural progress Administration, now the LRC, by those in
the PHHC and those in the Registry of Deeds and those in
the Bureau of Archives which divulged that around 500,000
historical documents including those ownership evidences
over the subject lands were disappeared from the records if
not directly stolen by those who have vested interest some
time in 1956, that gave birth to the raising of the cancelled
OCT 369 in the name of Don Hermogenes Rodriguez anew
which was manipulated also even the record of Gaceta de
Manila, followed by that OCT 4136 in the name of Don
Mariano San Pedro who became steward o Don Esteban
Benitez Tallano, OCT 779 in the name of Domingo Ocampo,
the nearest kin of Atty. Sr. Pablo Ocampo, the old-time legal
counsel of the Tallano-Tagean Royal Clan. Also follows the
manipulations escalated to massive frauds that gave rise to
the issuance of 100,000 fake land titles in OCT from OCT 01
up to OCT 100,000 intended to defeat the original land
title of the true owners, OCT 01-4, which were scattered
to many prominent names of known businessmen and
developers in conspiracy by those in the government, both
112
national and local, that given birth to other claimants like late
Agapito Bonson whose OCT 40875 had been issued which
connotes that former delegate of the Malolos Constitution who
died before World War II had rose from his grave to be able to
register his land holdings OCT 4085 in the year 1964;
13. That in the later part of 1962, a vaudeville court proceedings

between the PHHC, represented by the Office of the Solicitor
General for and in behalf of the Republic of the Philippines under
LRC/Civil Case No. 997-P in CFI Branch 28, Pasig City, born in
the open, Eulalio Ragua, the holder of OCT 632, and the heirs of
Mariano Severo Tuazon and the J.M. Tuazon and Co. Inc., the
holder of OCT 735, both Titles embracing 4,399,322 square meters in
Culiat, Quezon City, now Diliman, Quezon City where different
interest like the Quezon City Hall, Philippine Science High School,
Quezon Memorial Circle, Visayas Avenue, the Quezon Memorial
Park and Wildlife, the UP Village on going project, the East Triangle
and West Triangle where the Philam Homes has been situated,
the on-going Project 6 Housing project, the on-going Vasha
Village, the U.S. veterans Memorial Hospital, the Department of
Agriculture and Commerce, the Bureau of Land and Forestry, the
Philippine Sugar Regulatory Commission, the general Auditing
Office, the Philippine Virginia Tobacco Administration, the
Department of Transportation and Telecommunication, the U.P.
building, the newly developed Pag-asa Village, the San
Francisco Elementary School, the Philippine Veterans Village
and the Project 7, the on-going Mindanao Subdivision, the
113
Bago bantay Resettlement Housing Project, and fourth and

fifth of the North Triangle of the Phil-Am Life Home Housing
Project, particularly in the person of Eulalio Ragua had enable
to file similar complaint over the same subject matters against
the government cohorts in the said moro-moro proceedings in
the RTC of Quezon City under Civil Case No. 119 considering
they are party in interest in this proceedings under LRC/Civil
Case No. 997 since 1962 which was consolidated under
LRC/Civil Case No. 3957-P by the Motion of the Solicitor General,
now under CFI Branch 28, Pasay City, on the ground that in this
Sala has fewer cases pending unlike in the Sala of the CFI in
the Province of Rizal in Pasig has a tremendous big back load
of both civil and criminal cases that may reach two centuries
before the case have reach into judgment if not these some
other cases, like the case at bar will not be heard in this Sala.
14. Correspondingly, the Honorable Solicitor General Felix

Makasiar had enable to gain Court Resolution by way of his
Motion filed in the said Quezon City CFI stopping the said
CFI Judge to hear the Civil Case No. C-119 to prevent the
illicit exploitation of Philippine Judicial System for personal
whims and duplicity of Court action and Decision that
may estope the interest of the National Government
in as much as those respondent-plaintiffs and oppositors
are persons of the nature and interest with the
same identities who have the same subject matters
under this LRC/Civil Case No. 997, now LRC/Civil Case
3957-P. The suspension over the proceeding under
114
Civil Case No. C-119 responsive to the petitions of the

Honorable Solicitor General had been granted by the said CFI
Court in Quezon City, then.
Along this line in the above stated case, this Court can
consider that Tallano-Tagean legal action never rested, as
manifested by LRC/Civil Case No. 997 later 3957-P and the
monumental historic circumstances aforementioned where the
relentless effort of the lawful owners, the Tagean-Tallano have
stretched their effort for more than four (4) centuries of struggles
in defending their sacred lands, not only for the clans but their
noble ends is for the entire Filipino people toward sound and stable
economic prosperity of the country, yet, disregarding the issue of
abandoning their interest over the land that drive the concept the
original land owner became tolerant for quite sometime opening the
Pandoras box to attain the constituted laches. Indeed, delay in
asserting ones right before a court of justice to recover his
possession and ownership over the land is strongly inadmissible for
lack of merit of his claim, since it is clearly a human nature for a
person to be timid to enforce his right when the same is coerced
and threatened or invaded by excessive influential force and
abusive authority in this government of selected few, thus,
he has never stopped by laches from questioning the
ownership of the land in question, more specifically now
where the City of Manila and its suburbs are under siege of
military men of this administration to advance the interest of their
cohorts in the Real Estate Industry over the forthcoming suspension
of the Writ of Habeas Corpus.
Very clearly, a Title once
115
registered under the Torrens System of land registration can not

be defeated, even by adverse, open and notorious possession or
by laches. By tradition, registered Title under the Torrens System
can not be defeated by prescription. It is a universal acceptance,
the Title of the land once registered under the Torrens System,
is sufficient notice to the whole world because such action is an
action in Rem. All concern including the government and its
agencies should take notice of this rule, that no one can plead
by reason of ignorance of registration. What many times the law
had declared and by the opinion of known luminaries and judge
of Philippine Courts in regard to the acquisition of Title to real
property by adverse possession is not applicable to the land, its
true owners never resisted to assert their ownership over the land
equipped with registered Land Title under the Torrens System in
consonance with the provisions of the Land Registration Act 496,
which clearly cited in a case, Corporation de PP Agustinos vs.
Crisostomo, 32 Phil 427 (1915).
The law have admittedly say that not even the national
government may acquire the land in question owned by
private person by way of prescription even if to the extent
of taking the land for roads and highways or infrastructures
by reason of Eminent Domain, the Title thereof could not
be transferred to the government, which held under the
case of Herrera vs. Auditor General 102, Phil, 875 (1958)
and in Alfonso vs. Pasay City Government, 106, Phil, 1017
(1960) that such registered property can not be lost to the
government by prescription and the owner is entitled to be
116
paid of the price thereof as prescribed by our 1935 Constitution

Section 2 of Article III (Bill of Rights).
Even if the prescription law over the registered land under

Torrens System can not guarantee it all from evil attempts, still
this court remain proudly believe on its uncowed determination
and judgment that the rule must stand vigorously against anyone
nevertheless how painful it may seem, for the sake of sound
stability of our Land Registration System and for sound judicial
system. Let us face and fight nevertheless such abusive laws,
unlawful conducts and acts orchestrated by the oligarch government
leaders of this generation. We maintained the doctrine that the
registered owner under the Torrens System has an absolute right
to recover possession of the registered property is highly equally
imprescriptible, while possession over the land is only a consequence
of ownership, thereby, it should be likewise unavailing against the
latters hereditary successors, because actually they merely step
into the shoes of the decedent by operation of the law, see Stun,
et. al., vs. Nunez, et. al., 97 Phil. 762 (1955).
Today, in this circumstances and in the case at bar,

could not be given due consideration as a valid defense of
the herein oppositors and not even the government for
claiming ownership of the same subject land which has been
registered in the name of Tallano-Tagean under the Torrens
System for quite some time for seventy years now, that
prescription will not lie upon, neither that laches could be
regarded and make available as lawful defense which was
117
furtherly clarified in a case, Dela Cruz vs. Dela Cruz, CA-G.R.

No. 18060-R (August 30, 1950).
WHEREFORE, in view of the Motion for the Resolution of

Separate Decision with Compromise Agreement as submitted by
the Republic of the Philippines thru its Hon. Solicitor General,

JANUARY 18, 2006

CENON MARCOS, AUTHOR
E J EKKER, COLLABORATOR
1. 1572, Royal Decree of 1572 issued by the
Royal Audiencia, confirmed by the newly established
Supreme Court approximately May 5, 1583.
Respecting ownership of the Royal family to the entire
archipelago with exemption that the Island of
Mindanao be reverted back to the Noble Kings
cousins; the three (3) Sultans of Mindanao led by
Sultan Sinsuat, Sultan Hadji Kiram Misuari, and Sultan
Sirongga that should be inherited only by their
relative Moslem families.
2. January 17, 1764 Pursuant to Decree of 014 Protocol, by virtue of Supreme Order of the Royal
Crown of England and in accordance with the Royal
Audiencia de Manila in a Land Registration Case No.
571 of said court, having been duly and regularly heard
in accordance with the provision of the land laws as
adopted in the Torrens System, it was decreed that
Prince Lacan Acua Tagean Tallano, married to
Princes Rowena Ma. Elizabeth Overbeck Macleod of
Austria, is the owner in fee simple of Hacienda Filipina
or the Philippine Archipelago.
3. 1864, By virtue of the Spanish Royal Order
of 1864 OCT 01-4 had been registered anew in the
name of Prince Julian Macleod Tallano, the Tagean
descendant and only son of Rajah Soliman and
Princess Tarhata Kahar.
Some cases are missing that should be included
and, if they can be located they will be included later
as the research continues. For instance, in the formal
TRANSFER CERTIFICATE OF TITLE (TCT) No.
498 dated November 4, 1932 appears the following
portion of a footnote: This land covered by Torrens
Title TCT No. T-498 transferred from OCT No. T-014 had been a subject of Court Proceedings for the reregistration on the year 1903 as was ended on the
year 1904, in the Sala of the Supreme Court, in
compliance to Land Registration Act 496 and the same
had been placed and adjusted into another Court
Proceedings also in compliance of Cadastral Act 2259
which was ended on the year 1915 favorably to the
original owner, late Prince Julian McLeod Tallano.
The footnote was added, signed and certified
September 7, 1964 by Jos D. Santos, Register of
Deeds, Municipality of Pasig.
The footnote appended to TRANSFER
CERTIFICATE OF TITLE (TCT) No. 408 dated
June 7, 1932 states: This Land covered by Torrens
Title TCT No. T-408 had been a subject of Court
Proceedings for the re-registration on the year 1903 as
was ended on the year 1904, in the Sala of the
Supreme Court, in compliance to Land Registration
Act 496 and the same had been placed and adjusted
into another Court Proceedings also in compliance of
Cadastral Act 2259. The footnote was added, signed
and certified November 4, 1972 by Oscar T. Eusebio,
Register of Deeds, Rizal Province. The two TCTs
were divided into Parcels, 4 for 408 and 6 for 498.
The official surveys were done in 1909 and 1910 and
accepted in 1911. Some readers will not recall that
the Philippines were U.S. territories from 1900 to
1946, yet the private ownership of all lands was
recognized by the U.S. as evidenced by their leasing
lands from Tallano as early as 1904 for Camp John
Hay at Baguio, some 5,000 hectares (a hectare is
approximately 2.2 acres) for $20,000 per year.
4. DATE NEEDED***LRC Case No. 997P was filed by other claimants of the property
(covered by 408 and 498 on the basis of Spanish
Land Grant). Wilson P. Orfinada then filed LRC
Civil Case 3957-P DATE NEEDED***. On
June 7, 1962 the two cases were consolidated into
LRC Civil Case 3957-P on motion of the
JANUARY 18, 2006
Republic of the Philippines to avoid conflict of

hearing dates of the two cases.
5. February 4, 1972, LRC CIVIL CASE NO.
3957-P, DECISION WITH COMPROMISE
AGREEMENT issued by late Judge Enrique A.
Agana of CFI Branch 28 Pasay City. In as much
that the Solicitor General did not file an appeal by
April 4, 1972, the Decision with Compromise
Agreement become final and executory and it was
entered into the Book of Judgement on the 14th day
of June 1972 as confirmed by:
6. September 14, 1972 Entry of Judgment
issued by Atty. Jose E. Ortiz, Jr. Clerk of Court.
The DECISION WITH COMPROMISE
AGREEMENT deserves special mention because it
is the defining document, the formal expression of an
AGREEMENT reached between the government and
the acknowledged owners of all of the land (both
above and below the waters of the Archipelago) as
agreed to and enforceable by the Judiciary. The
Agreement was reached in 1964 during the Presidency
of Diosdado Macapagal and was confirmed and
memorialized by Judge Agana during the Presidency
of Ferdinand E. Marcos. It has been declared
enforceable by Judges during every Presidency since
and still certain elements of Philippine society conspire
with government employees, many of whom are in the
Justice system, to issue false land titles. The creation
of many very large family fortunes that were litigants
in the case has been facilitated by such practices.
The caption of Case No. 3957-P was styled:
LRC/CIVIL CASE NO. 3957-P for Quieting
of Titles/Reconveyance of Real Properties with
Reconstitution of OCT No. T-01-4, TCT No. T408/TCT No. 498 in accordance with Rep. Act
No. 26 in the name of Prince Lacan Tagean
Tallano, Don Gregorio Madrigal Acop and Don
Esteban Benitez Tallano.
The last names of some of the litigants in the case
are: Orfinada, Rodriguez, Cardona, Padilla, Aguilar,
Santiago, de los Santos, Esteban, Condrado, San Pedro,
Gregorio, Marcelo, Oritgas, Aquino, Soriano, Javier,
Cardoso, Jacinto, and Cruz. Many of these same
names are found in the Society sections of the local
newspapers each week.
It will be useful to quote, verbatim, the first half
of Judge Aganas opening paragraph:
With the blessings of our Supreme Being with
His judicial enhancement over the victim of
injustices and greatest land grabbing scandals, the
Republic of the Philippines failed to deviate from
entering with heirs of Price Julian Macleod Tallano
for a Separate Decision with Compromise
Agreement. But to settle once and for all the issue
of ownership over the land under OCT No. T-014 together with reconstitution of lost owner and the
duplicate copies of its original WAS A Motion filed
by the Republic of the Philippines and, including the
return of precious metals and stones consisting of
617,000 metric tons of gold and 500,000 pieces of
10 karat diamonds to the Royal family is another
Motion filed by the herein intervenor that needs to
be resolved under the same Sala (court) that
originally (was) under old case 997-P
consolidated into LRC/Civil Case No. 3957-P.
the National Treasurer and his staffs, the

Solicitor General and his staffs and the
Governor of the Central Bank to relocate the
remaining inventory balance of 400,000 metric
tons of gold nuggets own by the Royal Family,
the Tagean-Tallano family, and, when relocated,
return the same to the vaults of the Central Bank
for the interest of the Filipino people to serve as
U.S. Dollar reserves required by the IMF and the
World banks, while that 5% of that 1% of the
required royalty fee which was unpaid starting in
the year 1969 to the present and to its
succeeding years until the precious metals has
been withdrawn based on the prevailing market
price should be paid directly to the authorized
Heir, Prince Julian Morden Tallano.
The gold price at year-end 1970 (the first year for
which interest on the unpaid Royalty was due) was
$38.90 per ounce. If we multiply the number of
ounces in a metric ton of gold (31,103) X 1% (.01) X
5% (.05) X 400,000 metric tons, we will have a
constant of 6,220,800 to use. If we multiply the
constant times the price in a given year we get the
Royalty due for that year. In 1970 the number
rounded to the nearest million dollars was $242M.
That Royalty was not paid.
At that time the interest rate mentioned in some of
the court documents was given at 7%. 242 million
dollars at 7% to the end of 2002 (33 years) is 2,256
billion dollars. When all of the Royalties are added up
they come to $62,496B. When their earned interest is
added the total is $200.172B. The value of 400,000
metric tons of gold is more than 4 trillion dollars (more
than 200 trillion pesos).
The DECISION takes 139 pages and cannot be
reproduced in its entirety here so we will quote the
last few paragraphs:
Let this Decision with Compromise
Agreement be enforced enjoining all concern
private persons and government authorities
herein specified and everybody, natural or
juridical person, to observe and address this
Decision with Compromise Agreement observing
the imprescriptibility period clause over its
execution or issuance of its required original and
duplicate copies of OCT 01-4 including its TCT

Prince Julian Macleod Tallano and the whole
Filipino people in general, otherwise, anyone who

the fullest force of the law.
SO ORDERED.
February 4, 1972,
ENRIQUE A. AGANA, Presiding Judge
This Decision with Compromise Agreement was

met with a storm of protest and a flurry of lawsuits
from those people who had thought they were
legitimately buying their property as well as those who
had conspired with public officials to create
fraudulent titles in order to sell the property to
On page 120 of the same document the numbers unsuspecting buyers. On December 28, 1973
are changed a bit, presumably because additional Acop-Tallano (through the Court Appointed
Administrator, Julian Morden Tallano) filed a
information came to light. Paragraph 9. says:
COMPLAINT-IN-INTERVENTION asking the
Ordering the National Government, Office of court (Judge Agana) for a Clarificatory Order,
the President of the Philippines and his staffs, part of which reads as follows:
Page 9
7. March 21, 1974 Clarificatory Order
WHEREFORE, judgment is hereby rendered
in favor of Julian M. Tallano, et. al., ordering the
Provincial Assessor of Rizal, Batangas, Laguna,
Cavite, and Bulacan, including those assigned
assessors in the area where the land is located
to accept payment of realty tax of the
embracing real property from the heirsintervenor, Mr. Julian M. Tallano for a
maximum period of five (5) years by offsetting
the amount of damages P2 billion pesos from the
government in as much as the government,
through its Hon. Solicitor General had entered
into a judgment with compromise agreement
which was adjudicated on February 4, 1972 in a
separate proceeding where the issue of
ownership over the land covered by Land Title
OCT No. T-01-4 including the government
petitions for judicial reconstitution of said
Torrens Land Title OCT No. T-01-4 had been
resolved.
That all Land Titles that were issued by the
LRC and/or Register of Deeds of the place
where the land is located, except, that OCT No.
T-01-4 over the Archipelago and except that
TCT No. T-408 and TCT No. 498 in the
Province of Bulacan, Greater Manila Area,
Province of Rizal, Province of Laguna, Province
of Batangas and Province of Cavite, and such
fraudulent Title particularly those numbers
ranging from OCT No. T-01-4 to OCT No.
4085 to OCT No. 10,000 [probably a
typographical error since the number is OCT No.
100,000 in all of the other cases], based on the
recommendation of Hon. Commissioner Antonio
Noblejas to this Honorable Court dated January
3, 1964 firmly pleaded by Hon. Solicitor General
Hugo Gutierrez, are hereby declared null and
void, no force and effect, from beginning,
ordering the Hon. Register of Deeds to cancel
the same if ever on file in the records of the
Register of Deeds of the towns and provinces
where the land is situated.
Ordering the concern Register of Deeds of
the Town, City and the Province where the
Land is located to record above declared void
Owner Certificate of Titles including those
Transfer Certificate of Titles that were issued
but non derivative from legitimate OCT No. T01-4, which are also declared null and void Land
Titles, and inform the general public about the
mentioned fraudulent Land Titles to prevent the
people to be adversely affected by these illegal
public documents.
There are more detailed orders (6 pages) following
but the above is sufficient for our purposes here.
Judge Enrique A. Agana signed the Order March 21,
1974. In the face of dozens of challenges in the courts
during every presidential administration since the
issuance of this order, the courts have consistently
upheld it. Whether one likes the idea of a single person
controlling most of land in an entire nation of some 80
million people, or doesnt like it, that is the law in the
Philippines. It does not have to be a bad situation
as will be illustrated in the SUMMARY of this paper.
A further comment will be helpful since we could
not reproduce the entire DECISION.
The
Government waived its right over the public and
Friar lands in exchange for what amounts to the
free use of all of those lands occupied by public
buildings, public schools, hospitals, courts, municipal
and city buildings, police and military training camps and
similar land necessary for the public use. We say
Page 10
free use because any time the land was no longer

needed for the purpose provided, it was to revert to
the ownership of the Tallano Clan and could not be
converted by government to commercial use and sold
for the benefit of the government. Some of the most
classic examples of government abuse of this provision
are Clark Airforce Base, Subic Naval Bay, Camp John
Hay, and Ft. Wm. McKinley (renamed Ft. Bonifacio)
wherein the government has either leased, sold or
continued to use the properties.
To place in perspective the impact of these court
orders and decisions going back at least 430 years,
almost all of the estimated 22,000,000 titles to land are
fraudulent and were authorized to be issued by persons
who knew they were fraudulent. There are three
legitimate titles, OCT No. 01-4 and its derivatives TCT
Nos. 408 and 498, as compared with at least 100,000
OCTs and TCTs that are fraudulent, numbers which
were certified by former Commissioner Atty. Antonio
Noblejas of the Land Registration Commission.
8. September 10, 1974, Writ of Execution,
Demolition and Possession issued by late Judge
Enrique A. Agana.
The Judge, acting on the motion of Julian M.
Tallano, ordered the elements of the Integrated
National Police, the Philippine Constabulary, the
officials of Local and Barangay Government Units in
the areas including the Metropolitan Command in the
Greater Manila Area to coordinate with Branch
Deputy Sheriff Atty. Herminio Ubana and his
Deputized Sheriffs and law enforcement authority to
take over all the properties herein mentioned and
demolish any structures which were the subject matter
of the above entitled case, LRC/Civil Case No. 3957P, for and in favor of the said Intervenors, Julian M.
Tallano, et. al.
Judge Agana also appointed Attorney Epitacio
Sobejana as a Private Sheriff to act in the absence of
Sheriff Atty. Ubana if ever to execute this order in
a wider scope of area of responsibility. Then:
And finally, to recover all properties found
nationwide covered by Land Title OCT No. T-01-4
and be turned over to the herein Judicial Administrator
(Tallano).
With the reminder that Case No. 3957-P was filed
in 1962 during the Diosdado Macapagal
Administration, and was then joined by the Solicitor
General, we will copy part of the introduction:
Laying the factual basis for granting the Motion
was that the findings of this Court emanated in a
LRC/Civil Case No. 3957-P that first judgment was
pronounced and had been issued on February 4,
1972 in favor of Mr. Benito Tallano, who exposed
the grand designed Motion for Reconstitution over
a Land Title OCT 01-4 embracing the archipelago
filed by the Honorable Solicitor General. That on
that Motion, the Hon. Solicitor General should have
a burden of proof to controvert the surviving
oppositor, Benito Tallano, who is not the legitimate
heirs of the late Prince Julian McLeod Tallano. That
said late Prince have no surviving heirs at all so the
subject land necessarily be reverted to the
Government of the Republic of the Philippines. But,
obviously, none of those above that the Hon. Solicitor
General had succeeded to prove his own allegations
by rebuttal evidences not even single evidence.
Rather, they were trapped their grand design
preserving for the interest of the influential few,
when, the oppositor Benito Tallano, father of the
intervenor, Mr. Julian M. Tallano, in compliance to
the Order of the Court had successfully presented
the vital witnesses in the persons of Ex-President
and President of the Constitutional Convention,
Hon. Diosdado Macapagal, and Honorable Chief
Justice Roberto Concepcion, Ex-Senator Benigno

Aquino, Assemblyman Lorenzo Tanada. That the
Tallanos defense that they are still physically living
and in existence becomes indispensable to the
dispositions of the aforecited vital witnesses.
A bit farther on we find two very interesting
paragraphs:
And the greatest information of all that divulged
for public interest but should be observed with
highest secrecy of the subject matter was the
disposition of former Secretary of Justice Salvador
Marino before Atty. Epitacio Sobejana (remember
the Private Sheriff?) that there are group of Real
Estate Developers-Investors responsible to
disenfranchise the credibility of Land Title OCT No.
T-01-4. The disposition reads as follows:
That there are group of developers who have
vested interest responsible to discourage and
oppose the authenticity of OCT No. T-01-4, the
Land Title of the whole archipelago.
In a country wherein a lot of its justice seems
to be for sale, those with money to pay bribes to
obtain fake land titles, and to delay and/or win cases
when challenges are brought, grab the land to develop
and sell to get more money to pay more bribes to get
more land. An honest Judge can become the laughing
stock of his peers and find himself ostracized in his
own club. Two of the Judges in this case, 3957-P,
have stood tall and surely deserve a place among the
greatest of Philippine heroes. They are Enrique A.
Agana and Sofronio G. Sayo. Whether the current
Judge on the case, Ernesto A. Reyes, can join them
is not yet determinable, at least not from a journalists
position.
9.
November 4, 1975, Court Decision
rendered by late Judge Enrique A. Agana.
In this particular decision Judge Agana ruled
favorably on the motion of the Principal Intervenor in
the name of Anacleto Madrigal Acopiado praying for
the issuance of Clarificatory Decision with an order for
the Administrative reconstitution of the lost owners and
duplicate copies of TCT 408.
10. January 19, 1976, Clarificatory Decision
issued by late Judge Enrique A. Agana.
The court ordered: B) That the National
Treasurer, the Central Bank of the Philippines and the
Land Bank of the Philippines should undertake and
release the disturbance compensation and
compensatory damages amounting to P2 Billion in cash
which are evidenced by Land Bank Bonds with
interim Certificate Nos. 180, 180-1, 180-2, 180-3, 1804 series of 1968 with earning interest of 7 percent per
annum in the amount of P400,000,000.00 each to be
matured in August 14, 1978, the payment of P2 Billion
pesos disturbance damages in favor of the intervenor
to be taken from the assurance funds of the
government which shall be secured by the Land Bank
Bonds covering the interim certificate, said payment
shall be due to the intervenor and not to the heirs of
Don Mariano San Pedro y Esteban, the court has also
ordered the intervenor to establish a Foundation in the
name of Don Esteban Benitez Tallano and Don
Gregorio Madrigal Acop to pursue the objectives of
the landowner to preserve the estate for the interest
of the Filipino people. [As of February 14, 2003 the
amount due is calculated to be 40.705 billion pesos.]
C) Commanding the NBI, INP, the Metrocom and
the Philippine Constabulary and the succeeding Law
Enforcement Authorities to Enforce this Orders and
Arrest all occupants unlawful detainers either
government or private persons or Corporation or their
Associates, or employees which were declared
JANUARY 18, 2006

violators of PD772
11. May 4, 1979, Sheriff Return signed by
Atty. Jose E. Ortiz, Jr. Clerk of Court of RTC Branch
111, Pasay City dated. [A Sheriff Return is the
Sheriffs report of what was accomplished pursuant to
a Writ of Execution.]
In compliance with the Writ of Execution dated
09-10-74 the execution of recovering properties
covered by TCT Nos. 408 and 498 had been
implemented as witnessed by the Metrocom and
Integrated National Police.
12. May 28, 1989, Order of Third Alias Writ
of Execution, Possession and Demolition with
Dismissal to Motion for Relief of the National
Government issued by former Judge Sofronio G. Sayo.
[From BLACKS LAW DICTIONARY, Sixth Edition,
1991, Alias Writ of Execution is defined as, One issued
after first has been returned without having accomplished
its purpose. A second writ of execution issued to
enforce a judgment that was not fully satisfied by the
sheriff acting under the first or original writ.]
The motion for reconsideration of the government
took 13 years, a means of dilatory tactics to defeat
the motion of the intervenor to file the motion for
issuance of third alias writ of execution wherein the
Solgen failed to file its motion within the time frame to
prove their allegation, hence the government lost the
case and their motion for relief had been denied, and
the motion of the intervenor was granted, the private
sheriff had been appointed by the court and had been
ordered to repossess all subject lands covered by OCT
01-4 and TCT Nos. 408 and 498.
13. October 9, 1989, Partial Compliance with
Sheriff Certificate of Return signed by Atty. Jose
E. Ortiz, Jr.
In compliance with said court order the sheriff had
implemented the writ and as a result land areas
enumerated in the sheriff return located in greater
Manila and its suburbs, including some areas in the
provinces of Rizal, Bulacan, Laguna, Cavite, Tarlac,
and Baguio City, about 15,000 hectares more or less
had been recovered and turned over and reconveyed
to Julian M. Tallano.
14. March 3, 1995, Order of 4th Alias Writ of
Execution signed by former Judge Sofronio G. Sayo.
The 4th order of writ of execution was granted by
the court in favor of the intervenor Julian M. Tallano.
Because the government was again employing dilatory
tactics, it was penalized by the court by being assessed
damages amounting to P500 million cash against the
national government and its National Treasury office
and the intervenor is also entitled to another P500
million damages against the government in shares of
stocks of the government controlled corporations.
Again the Register of Deeds of the provinces of
Bulacan and Rizal were ordered to reconstitute TCT
Nos. 498 and 408 respectively.
15. July 7, 1997, Court Order signed by Judge
Ernesto A. Reyes.
In the petition for reconstitution the court copy of
the decision dated November 4, 1975 was destroyed
when the city hall of Pasay was gutted by fire January
18, 1992. It was established that a copy of said
decision had been received by Solicitor Dominador
Cariaso, hence the court ordered and declared that said
decision was reconstituted.
16. February 2, 1998, Court Order signed by
Judge Ernesto A. Reyes.
The intervenor represented by the counsel of
Anacleto Acopiado filed a motion for the issuance of
a court order to register a portion of land covered by
TCT 408. Said motion was denied for lack of merit for
reason that unless said TCT 408 is reconstituted that shall
be the time to segregate portion of its land area.
17. July 11, 2001, Court Order signed by
JANUARY 18, 2006

The cause of action of the court in connection
with the verified petition of the intervenor Julian M.
Tallano led to the reconstitution of documents pertaining
to decision, Clarificatory order, writ of execution, sheriff
return, letter of administration, entry of judgement and
ordering the Register of Deeds of Rizal and Bulacan to
reconstitute TCT Nos. 408 and 498.
18. October 8, 2001, Court Order signed by
In connection with the motion for reconsideration
filed by the Solicitor General dated July 31, 2001, the
court ruled that the DECISION WITH
COMPROMISE AGREEMENT dated 02-04-72
becomes the law of the case and when the decision
of the lower court had not been appealed and allowed
to become final, it becomes the law of the case and
cannot be set aside by the Judge, hence Solicitor
Generals motion for reconsideration is denied.
19. December 12, 2001, Court Order of Judge
Ernesto A, Reyes.
The manifestation and reply filed by the Register
of Deeds of Rizal resisting the issuance of
reconstituted copy of TCT No. 408 as contained in the
final order dated July 11, 2001 was denied and the
court ordered the Registrar to comply.
20. December 19, 2001, Court Order of Judge
Ernesto A. Reyes.
The Motion for Reconsideration of the same
Registrar defying the execution of final order was
similarly denied, hence the reconstituted title of TCT
No. 408 was issued on December 19, 2001.
YEAR 2002
21. April 9, 2002, CA G.R. SP. NO. 70014
Republic of the Philippines [via the Office of Solicitor
General] vs. Regional Court of Pasay City, Branch 111
(now presided by the Honorable Judge Ernesto A.
Reyes), Anacleto Acopiado, Anacleto Madrigal Acop,
Julian M. Tallano, and the Register of Deeds of the
Province of Rizal and Bulacan. CA (above) stands
for Court of Appeals. In this crystal clear move to
pervert the Justice System, the government filed what
amounts to a Motion to Annul the 1972 Agana
DECISION WITH COMPROMISE AGREEMENT.
Such a case cannot qualify as an Appeal to be heard
in a CA; it was filed there through subterfuge because
the Supreme Court had already ruled in favor of
Tallano in such a way that it could not reverse itself.
The government has acted in a clearly duplicitous and
criminal manner; since he could not put the government
in jail, Judge Agana fined it two billion pesos (as of
1968), which it still has not paid.
22. May 20, 2002, Comment and or
Opposition to the Petition with Motion to
Dismiss filed by Atty. Manuel G. Natividad, Jr.,
Counsel of Julian M. Tallano.
In reply to the petition filed by the Solicitor
General praying for the annulment of the judgment of
RTC Branch 111, Pasay City for reason of extrinsic
fraud and lack of jurisdiction as alleged by the Solicitor
General, Atty. Natividad comments that there exist no
such extrinsic fraud committed by the court, inasmuch
that during the litigation of the case, the Solicitor
General was actively participating during the court
proceedings, and as to the jurisdiction in question, the
Regional Court is the right court and not the Court of
Appeals.
23. June 25, 2002, Writ of Preliminary
Injunction issued by Justice Marina L. Buzon.
Virtually ignoring the Opposition filed by Atty.
Natividad, the Court of Appeals issued a Writ of
Preliminary Injunction, saying that Its sole objective is
to preserve the status quo until the merits of the case
can be heard fully. Then it says, WHEREFORE, let
a writ of preliminary injunction issue enjoining
respondents from enforcing the Orders dated July 7,

1997, July 11, 2001, and October 8, 2001 in Civil Case
No. 3957-P and from conducting further proceedings
in said case. [That could be a very long time.
Meanwhile, every business day all across the
archipelago hundreds of illegal land titles are being
issued. To truly maintain the status quo, would not
all land titling be required to cease until the merits of
the case can be heard fully? Sauce for the Goose
is sauce for the Gander.]
24. November 20, 2002, Ultimate Rejoinder
with Motion to Resolve and Dismiss filed by the
9 lawyers of Julian M. Tallano represented by Atty.
Olivia Velasco-Jacoba.
In reply to other petition for annulment of judgment
and consolidated reply of the Solicitor General, the 9
lawyers representing Julian M, Tallano submitted their
Ultimate rejoinder manifesting that the state is estopped
by simple fact of its having entered into a Compromise
Agreement with the Tallano Clans, and the decision
became final and executory and the Court of Appeals
has no jurisdiction because the power to nullify titles
is not among its original powers and there is no
extrinsic fraud because since the start and throughout
all the proceedings, the state was ably represented by
the Office of the Solicitor General.
26. February 20, 2003, Court of Appeals, CA
G.R. SP. NO. 70014, RESOLUTION/
DECISION. Ordered by Associate Justice Marina L.
Buzon, concurred in by Associate Justice Jose L.
Sabio, Jr., and Acting Presiding Justice Cancio C.
Garcia, this decision denies all of the six motions filed
subsequent to the issuance of the Writ of Preliminary
Injunction of June 25, 2002 and concludes with the
following statement:
Consequently, there is a need to examine the
records of Civil Case No. 3957 and a hearing held
for said purpose to determine whether respondent
court acquired jurisdiction over said case.
What ludicrous nonsense! Those three Justices
should be immediately suspended and an in-depth
investigation initiated to learn the real motivation behind
such a farcical ruling which, if they are allowed to get
away with it, can easily delay the case, and progress in
the Republic of the Philippines, for another ten years.
SUMMARY
Above, at 4., we referred to initiating one of the
biggest attempted land-scams ever. In his
DECISION WITH COMPROMISE AGREEMENT,
Judge Agana identified the perpetrators and disclosed
their plan for replacing the Tagean-Tallano Clan as the
owner of OTC No. T-01-4 by the government under
its principles of Public Domain since there were no
surviving heirs of the Tallanos. When one reads the
cases in their entirety, it becomes clear that the
government, in the person of Solicitor General Felix
Makasiar who served in the Administration of
Diosdado Macapagal, made the necessary effort to
prove beyond any shadow of doubt that OCT No. T01-4 was the single grandfather land title to the
entire archipelago and the TCTs No. T-408 and 498
were the only legitimate derivatives thereof, making all
land titles not derived directly from those three
fraudulent and of no value whatsoever.
Rather than attempt to paraphrase Judge Aganas
words and lose some of his wonderful clarity, we will
quote from his DECISION WITH COMPROMISE
AGREEMENT, beginning on page 12:
Similarly, the moro-moro court proceedings in
this Sala under LRC/Civil Case No. 997-P against
Don Esteban Benitez Tallano and Prince Lacan
Page 11
Acua Tagean Tallano, the living heir of the Late
Prince Julian Macleod Tallano contemplated by
some government officials in Malacaang in
conspiracy of these developers who managed the
validation of their fictitious Land Titles particularly
this OCT 333 of Bonifacio Regalado its Decree
No. 1141 has been found covering land in Florida
Blanca, the OCT 735 of Don Mariano Severino
Tuazon, and that OCT 632 own by Eulalio Ragua,
that OCT 730 own by Piedad Estate, that OCT
614, OCT 333, OCT 291, and that OCT own by
Patricia Tiongson and by the National Government,
and all OCT its numbers from OCT No. 2 to OCT
No. 100,000 had been declared non-bankable due
to their fraudulent characteristics, and null and void
ab initio by my predecessor in the Court on July 14,
1964 by virtue of the Petition filed by the Republic
of the Philippines in favor of its allege predecessor,
late Prince Lacan (Tagean) Tallano under LRC
Civil Case No. 997 which was consolidated to LRC
Civil Case No. 3957-P for Separate Judgment Re:
Reconstitution of OCT No. T-01-4 in the name of
Prince Lacan Tagean Tallano with Annulment of
OCT No. 1 up to OCT No. T 100,000 vs.
Hermogenes Rodriquez from which the petitioner,
Republic of the Philippines had acquired its interest
and rights over the subject lands under the principle
of Public Domain, alleging in that petition that late
Julian Macleod Tallano and Prince Lacan Acua
Tagean Tallano have no surviving heirs whosoever,
so therefore, under the law, said big track of lands,
the Hacienda Filipina evidenced by OCT No. T-014 be reverted to the National Government. [Please
be reminded that during this period, 1962-1964, the
National Government was under the Administration
of Diosdado Macapagal.]
On the above proceedings, the constitutional
rights of the heirs of the true owner had always
been deprived, thanks to the sound-meritorious
judicial procedures of our Judiciary then that
asserted by then Solicitor General Felix Makasiar,
now, the pillar of our Supreme Court who sent
summons and subpoenas to the Tallano-Tagean
heirs in Hawaii and the old residence of the
Tallano-Tagean in Sitio Sauyo, Barangay Kuliat,
Quezon City, the Decision in favor of the Republic
of the Philippines under LRC/Civil Case No. 997P consolidated with LRC/Civil Case No. 3957-P
had been reverted in favor of Don Esteban Benitez
Tallano by way of Opposition Paper with supported
evidences adopted from government Position Paper
and proof of ownership over the land and proof of
heirship to the late Prince Julian Macleod Tallano
and Prince Lacan Acua Tagean Tallano and
Intervention by Benito A. Tallano that had
submitted during the Hearing prior to the release of
Decision of July 14, 1964 which caused this case
under LRC/Civil Case No. 3957-P as consolidated
one railroaded up to this proceedings.
On the part of the National Government
represented by the Macapagal Administration they
came to the stipulation for the issuance of the
Decision with Compromise Agreement subject to
the following terms and conditions, here to wit:
1. That the Republic of the Philippines thru its
President, His Excellency Diosdado Macapagal
waived its rights over the lands that are still
found public lands or land that have Land Title
including their rights in Crisostomo Estate in the
City of Cabanatuan, yet, and if ever titled only
those lands that have fraudulent Land Titles be
re-conveyed to and in favor of the heirs of Prince
Julian Macleod Tallano, provide the Land Reform
should be respected maintaining the land
Page 12
emancipated in favor of the farmer beneficiaries,

otherwise, conversion of the land covered by Land
Reform into a commercial purposes destroying the
aims of land reform, automatically the ownership
interest of the subject land should be reversed in
favor of the heirs of the true owner, late Prince
Julian Macleod Tallano; Don Esteban Benitez
Tallano or their successor in interest;
2. That the government buying price of the subject
land to the Tagean-Tallano Royal Family in case
of expropriation by the government should be
subject to the following quotations: [This was
followed by several pages of land prices to be
applied to different classes of land in all of the
regions of the archipelago except those areas
already ordered to be deeded to the three Sultans
of Mindanao.]
From the quotations above it seems quite clear that
the Macapagal Administration, including its Secretary
of Justice Salvador Marino and its Solicitor General
Felix Makasiar, used their Position Papers to prove
the Tallano ownership of OCT No. T-01-4 and then
had planned to usurp it by declaring that there were no
heirs to the Tallano estate, thus taking it for the
National Government via the principle of Public
Domain. While it may not be politically correct to say
so, governments (especially so-called democratic
governments) are run by and for the benefit of a
nations oligarchs and the scheme uncovered by Judges
Bautista and Agana was not at all atypical of most
nations. The difference occurred because Judges
Bautista and Agana were not corruptible and forced
the Macapagal Administration to a compromise.
At the end of the 3 rd paragraph above, 8., we
said that It does not have to be a bad situation.
Judge Agana gave it much thought in the near 15
years he was responsible for the case and the
solutions to almost all of the problems can be found
in his Orders. For instance, he required that Prince
Julian Morden Tallano set up a Foundation in the
name of Don Esteban Benitez Tallano and Don
Gregorio Madrigal Acop to manage the affairs of the
Estate, including loaning money to provinces and
municipalities and establishing and investing in
businesses. Prices for government purchase of
properties were established; a similar arrangement
could be made so that developers could supply
legitimate titles to those people to whom they sold, or
leased, properties. Those problems can be solved by
following the laws already existing.
With the aid of the Global Alliance Investment
Association the government can make its appropriate
payments to the Foundation which in turn can pay its
real estate taxes, putting money in the hands of the
municipalities and other beneficiaries of real estate
taxes, allowing them to rapidly repair their local
economies. Further, the gold held by the Central Bank
for the benefit of the banking system was returnable
at any time after the year 2000 began, and the
Alliance can also assist in the distribution and use of
that gold in all of the banking systems in Southeast
Asia. Within all of this, Prince Tallano can be properly
compensated for his 30 years of difficulties and the
Foundation can be operated professionally with

Source of these sketch maps approved by the Director of Lands in the Lands Management Bureau of
DENR-NCR.
In this study the total land area of the real estate properties of Ayala Corporation which had been originated
by the Ayala y Cia is more or less one thousand (1,000) hectares. These concerned only lot numbers as
enumerated above.
The transfer and/or change of ownership of these prime properties can be traced out from the date of
issuance of their derivates titles which originated from OCT No.383.
OCT No. 383, which was secured from the Register of Deeds for the Province of Rizal, can not be relied
upon since its number of 383 was detached from the file in the vault of the RD of Rizal. Much more, the
registered owner cannot be read as well as the area of the land covered by the said title. Nowhere in said
title indicates when said title was registered/surveyed because it can not be read. If this title is presented in
court it will not be considered.
It has been noted, based on the copies of the four (4) TCTs secured from the offices of Register of deeds
of the Province of Rizal and Makati City that the succession of ownerships of Ayala Corporation started from
OCT No. 383 that was issued in April 18, 1908 and this was followed by TCT 40129. However, no record
of this TCT was available with the office of the RD of Rizal. This was followed by TCT No. 46353 issued
on August 28, 1955 in the name of Ayala y Cia with an area of 123 hectares comprising Block 7, and then
this TCT 46353 was partially cancelled with the issuance of TCT No. 47133 with an area of 64.50 hectares
and issued on October 9, 1956, or less than 14 months after it was also registered in the name of Ayala y
Cia, said area is designated as 7-C a portion of Block 7. Four (4) months after, on February 18, 1957 the
same area of 64.50 hectares was transferred in the name of Ayala Corporation, the same area designated
as Block 7-C. Later on, eight (8) months after a portion said 64.50 hectares was partially cancelled with total
area of more or less 3.70 hectares and TCT No. 54606 was issued on October 29, 1957. The 3.70 hectares
was subdivided into eight (8) lots such as Lot Nos. 1,2,3,5,6,7,8 and 9 with total area of 3.70 hectares. These
areas located along the Ayala Avenue which are designated as hotel row, where the Pacific Plaza, Ritz Tower,
Gilarmi Hotel, Tuscany Bldg. and Manila Peninsula Hotel are located.
JANUARY 18, 2006
The remaining area of the 64.50 hectares which is

still more or less 60 hectares was further subdivided
into nine (9) blocks such as Block 2,6,7,8,10,11,14 &
15 which are composed of 167 individuals lots.
Subdivision of these 167 lots had been approved by the
Land Registration Commission (LRC) under Psd No.
3955 which was approved by Court of First Instance
of Rizal on April 18, 1957 and annotated in the
memorandum of Encumbrance of TCT 54606.
These 167 lots were sold to different well-known
persons and entities in the country who are listed
elsewhere on this page.
As can be noted above with the exception of Armi
Corporation and Monterey Apartment Corporation the
167 individuals lots of TCT 54606 had been sold to 155
persons and corporations with a donation in favor of
Urdaneta Village of two (2) lots.
CONCLUSIONS:
OCT No. 383 that is the mother title of all the
transfer certificates of Ayala Corporation is null and
void because of the following reasons:
a. OCT 383 in file with the record of RD of Rizal
cannot be relied on, its number was purposely
detached, its registered owner is not indicated
together with the area and no mention of
original survey can be read thereon.
b. Its Decree No. 2317 is spurious, since per
record of the LRA as certified by Salvador L.
Oriel, Chief Docket Division, Decree 2317 was
located in Candelaria, Quezon and its area is
only 971 square meters. It was decreed that its
owners are Apolonia Umali, Luis, Claro and
Maria Gonzales.
c. Certification of said Decree 2317 is signed by
Enrique Altavas Chief of the General Land
Registration Office dated August 16, 1949 at
9:09 AM.
d. Certified true copy of its microfilm copy is certified
by Salvador L. Oriel dated April 18, 2002
e. OCT No. 383 is considered null and void ab initio
in as much that OCT Nos. 1 to 100,000 are
spurious as ruled in the Decision with Compromise
Agreement signed by the late Honorable Judge
Enrique A. Agana of Court of First Instance (CFI)
28, of Pasay City dated February 4, 1972.
All the TCTs of Ayala Corporation and Ayala y
Cia are also null and void ab initio since their origin
(OCT No 383) is spurious.
The most glaring fact is that the original survey
was supposedly conducted from December 10, 1923 to
January 9, 1924. OCT No. 383 was supposedly
registered April 18, 1908. This is a blatant violation of
R.A. 496, the Land Registration Act, which has a
policy that the land must be surveyed first before it can
be registeredfollowed by the issuance of its title. In
this particular case the documents speak for
themselves that OCT 383 was issued ahead of the
required original survey. It is very clear that Ayalas
are devoid of legal means to claim their ownership of
the land, the subject matter of this article. Decree No
2317 is not in Makati, it is in Candelaria, Quezon;
another proof of the illegal issuance of TCTs in favor
of the said Ayala Corporation & Ayala y Cia.
This report confirmed the anomalous issuance of
title of the former Land Registration Commission and
now the Land Registration Authority.

Budgets Tip of the Week #10:

Benefits for Foreign Nationals
As a foreign national citizen, when you set up a Nevada corporation you are establishing an entity
resident in the United States, with all of the benefits that accrue to that status. And no, you do not ever
have to set foot in the country to do this. You can even set up a virtual office presence, with a telephone
answered in the name of the corporation to present a different face to the new global community!
A Nevada corporation can provide services for a business in a foreign jurisdiction and receive its income
in Nevada, where is taxed at the federl rate of just 15% on the first $50,000 of net income. In some cases,
that advantage alone is sufficient reason to take this step IMMEDIATELY. In the long run, however, you
will find that Nevadas haven status will serve you in many other ways as well.

Coming to America
CONTACT:
The United States Immigration Service has in recent years relaxed requirements for many high-tech
workers, in recognition of the global demand for skilled workers in this field. H1-B visa statuswhich
applies to entertainers, athletes and those who otherwise possess unique skillsis easier to obtain now than
at any time in the past. Wouldnt it be nice if an American company needed you badly enough that it would
help you to qualify for an H1-B visa? You just might have a LOT to offer this country!
H1-B visa quotas are often filled quickly but there is another type of visa that might be of interest to
any foreign national working in a management capacity. An executive or manager of a foreign corporation
affiliated with a U.S. corporation can qualify for an L visa, if the following requirements are fulfilled:
1. The foreign corporation must be affiliated with the American (Nevada) corporation and should have
assets in excess of $500,000.
2. Document that you are in fact an executive or manager of a foreign corporation affiliated with the
U.S. corporation.
2. Document that the U.S. corporate affiliate is in need of someone with your skills and abilities. (An
advertisement demanding a special combination of skills and abilities that just happen to match your own
will help a lot.)
3. Document your skills and abilities relative to the U.S. corporations needs.
In addition to the L-type visa, foreign nationals may be able to avail themselves of E-type visas, which
typically involve investment in U.S. businesses. We suggest you consult with an immigration attorney.
