[TITULO PROPRIEDAD 4136; SAN PEDRO ESTATE; DON MARIANO E.

SAN PEDRO FOUNDATION,


INC.]
---BELOVED PHILIPPINES, WE HAVE FOUND THE GREATER POWER OF TRUTH, AND IT’S AGAINST
THE 1996 EN BANC DECISION OF THE HON. SUPREME COURT.---
[“LEGAL STATUS OF TITULO PROP. 4136 OF ESTATE OF DON MARIANO E. SAN PEDRO IN THE
LIGHT OF THE DISCOVERY OF THE 1971/72 ORIGINAL CERTIFICATES OF TITLE (OCTs) No. 0-
5617 and OCT No. 0-5797”]---The Hon. Supreme Court in its 1996 Decision en banc
(on San Pedro estate) has made it clear that the huge area of the vast lands under
the mysterious Titulo Prop. 4136 is 173,000 hectares. (Pls. see the decision in
G.R. No. 103727, Dec. 1996, with sketch plan of Titulo Prop. 4136.) It also made
clear that there are two confusing dates (April 25, 1894 and April 29, 1894)
involved in the San Pedro controversy, and that for purposes of its 1996 en banc
Decision, the Hon. Supreme Court affirmed “April 25, 1894” as the correct and real
date, and thus (mistakenly!) declared Titulo Prop. 4136 issued on April 25, 1894
as null and void.
THE HON. SUPREME COURT FURTHER CLARIFIED:
“The heirs of the late Mariano San Pedro y Esteban laid claim and have been laying
claim to the ownership of, against third persons and the Government itself, a
total land area of approximately 173,000 hectares or “214,047 quiniones,” on the
basis of a Spanish title, entitled “Titulo de Propriedad Numero 4136” dated April
25, 1894. The claim, according to the San Pedro heirs, appears to cover lands in
the provinces of Nueva Ecija, Bulacan, Rizal, Laguna and Quezon; and such Metro
Manila cities as Quezon City, Caloocan City, Pasay City, City of Pasig and City of
Manila, thus affecting in general lands extending from Malolos, Bulacan to the
City Hall of Quezon City and the land area between Dingalan Bay in the north and
Tayabas Bay in the south.”
THE HON. SUPREME COURT MADE IT CLEAR: “….The heirs or successors-in-interest of
Mariano San Pedro y Esteban are not without recourse. Presidential Decree No. 892,
xx, grants all holders of Spanish Titles the right to apply for registration of
their lands under Act No. 496, otherwise known as the Land Registration Act,
within six (6) months from the effectivity of the Decree.” xxx “We are in accord
with the appellate courts’ holding xxx that since the Titulo was not registered
under Act No. 496, otherwise known as the Land Registration Act, said Titulo is
inferior to the registered titles of the private respondents Ocampo, Buhain and
Dela Cruz (i.e. of the notorious OCT 614 and OCT 333). xxx “This Court can only
surmise that the reason for the non-registration of the Titulo under the Torrens
system is the lack of the necessary documents to be presented in order to comply
with the provisions of P.D. 892. We do not discount the possibility that the
Spanish title in question is not genuine, especially since its genuineness and due
execution have not been proven. In both cases, the petitioners-heirs were not able
to present the original of Titulo de Propriedad No. 4136 nor a genuine copy
thereof.”
NOW, BELOVED PHILIPPINES, AND DEAR PORTIA, GODDESS OF JUSTICE, WHAT IF, CONTRARY
TO THE BELIEF OF THE HON. SUPREME COURT, THE TITULO PROPRIEDAD 4136 OF APRIL 25,
1894 HAS ALREADY BEEN SUBMITTED TO, AND HAS PASSED THE RIGID EXAMINATION OF, LAND
REGISTRATION CASES NOS. N-1861 AND N-1876? WHAT NOW, PALLAS ATHENA, IF INDEED
THERE HAS ALREADY BEEN SUCH A TORRENS TITLE ISSUED IN FAVOR OF THE HEIRS OF DON
MARIANO E. SAN PEDRO NECESSARILY AFTER STRICT INVESTIGATION OF TITULO PROPRIEDAD
4136 OF APRIL 25, 1894? Many a salty tear has been shed by the helpless poor;
quite a number of them have experienced the feeling of deep remorse that has risen
within their honest souls when their last hope for justice has fled in Dec. 1996.
Dear Portia, goddess of Justice, will you forsake us again when what is at stake
now is the precious honor that we cherish above all else, when much that is left
is the memory of those who tried to redeem the dignity of the poor and
relentlessly fought for Titulo 4136 in your name. Pallas Athena, goddess of Truth,
we praise thee with our gratitude, since our Motherland will now be redeemed,
because we have found the great power of Truth of the mysterious Titulo Propriedad
4136--the one hope of the poor, that was viciously maligned and ruthlessly
assailed by the combined forces of the unscrupulous rich and the dark political
powers that be. The Titulo Propriedad 4136 has now gone back to life to save and
give justice to the disadvantaged and the oppressed and to bring the Philippines
to Golden Age!
GOD BLESS THE PHILIPPINES!………THERE IS REALLY SUCH A TORRENS TITLE (OR AN ORIGINAL
CERTIFICATE OF TITLE) THAT WAS ISSUED OUT OF TITULO PROPRIEDAD 4136 OF APRIL 25,
1894, AND IT IS NOT JUST ONE, BUT TWO! (Pls. see the orderly Land Registration
Case No. N-1861 and N-1876. See also the Partial Decision of Judge Emmanuel Munoz
in Oct. 12, 1970 thereon. Pls. also see the Original Certificate of Title (OCT)
No. 0-5617 and OCT No. 0-5797 of the Hon. Register of Deeds of Meycauayan,
Bulacan. The Torrens Title have been discovered only in 2001, and have become the
object of complaint of Quieting of Title filed in Bulacan RTC against the false
heirs, all 42 of them with San Pedro surnames. The titles have been hidden by them
false San Pedro heirs presumably because of the coming confirmation of Don
Alejandro P. San Pedro as the “next of kin and true legal heir of Don Mariano E.
San Pedro”--with his most authentic Spanish documents, discovered from the 400
year-old church of Sta. Ana in Taguig. TP 4136 issued in April 25, 1894 had,
indeed, been submitted in a Land Registration Case under Act 496. The original of
the TP 4136 was necessarily shown, and examined (as indicated in the records), and
found in order, so that in 1972, after due notice and hearing with all concerned,
the Hon. fact-finding and jurisdictional court, which is a Court “in rem”, whose
decision is final and against the whole world, (after the lapse of certain number
of years), issued forth a decree for the issuance of Torrens Titles, namely,
Original Certificates of Title (OCTs) No. 0-5617 and OCT No. 0-5797. A number of
Transfer Certificates of Title have also been issued from the OCTs, were
transferred to innocent purchasers for value, and have become valid and perfect
titles.
THE PARTIAL DECISION OF JUDGE EMMANUEL MUNOZ DETERMINING THE TITULO PROP. 136
ISSUED ON APRIL 25, 1894 TO BE IN ORDER,--AS WELL AS HIS ISSUANCE OF THE JUDICIAL
DECREE FOR REGISTRATION OF THE LAND THEREOF, AND THE FINAL ISSUANCE OF THE
ORIGINAL CERTIFICATE OF TITLES TO THE SAID LANDS WITHIN TITULO PROP. 4136 ISSUED
ON APRIL 25, 1894,--IS OF ABSOLUTE JUDICIAL NOTICE IN PHILIPPINE JURISDICTION,
SPECIALLY TO THE HON. SUPREME COURT. [(Pls. see Revised Rules of Court of the
Philippines, Rule 129, Sec. 1). Moreover, the said Land Registration Case is a
proceeding “in rem”, which is “an action in which the court is required to have
control of the thing or object and in which an adjudication is made as to the
object which binds the whole world and not simply the interests of the parties to
the proceeding, and has for its object the disposition of property, without
reference to the title of individual claimants;. Flesch v. Circle City Excavating
& Rental Corp., 137 Ind.App. 695, 210 N.E.2d 865. (Black's Law Dictionary, Sixth
Edition, page 793.]
THE QUESTION OF VALIDITY OF TITULO PROP. 4136 ISSUED ON APRIL 25, 1894, AFTER THE
SAME HAS BEEN DULY EXAMINED AND FOUND IN ORDER BY THE HON. LAND REGISTRATION COURT
IN “IN-REM” PROCEEDINGS, HAS BECOME “RES JUDICATA”. Therefore, the en banc
Decision of the Honorable Supreme Court, has become “ultra vires” on its part;
and, hence, it acquired no jurisdiction on Titulo Prop. 4136. Forcing the issue
would result into grave abuse of discretion that would result into lack of
jurisdiction. Neither, the Hon. Supreme Court can now 1) Order a new trial to
correct its mistake because doing so will result to “double jeopardy” against the
judicially confirmed next of “kin” and true legal heir of Don Mariano E. San
Pedro; 2) neither the Hon. Supreme Court can promulgate today, “motu propio”, a
new judgment to correct the previous one where it erred because of the stark
absence of a fair trial, and therefore would be lacking and without “due
process“;3) And, indeed, to repeat, the validity of Titulo Prop. 4136 issued on
April 25, 1894 has become “res judicata” after it passed strict examination in
Land Registration Cases Nos. N-1861 and N-1876, which are a case “in rem” that
acquired notice and jurisdiction to the whole world, and, as proof thereof, have
resulted, the issuance of OCT. No. 0-5617 and OCT No. 0-5797, together with
equally perfect and valid TCTs that have now passed to third parties who are
innocent purchasers for value.
THUS, HOW THE HON. SUPREME COURT SPEAKS WITH THE VOICE OF GOD, AND IS INFALLIBLE,
AND CANNOT ERR. EVERYTHING, INCLUDING ITS SEEMING MISTAKE, IS PART OF LARGER
DESIGN FOR GOOD OF ALL AND THE COUNTRY. The most logical interpretation of motive
in its said controversial 1996 en banc decision is that:--in as much as the land
under Titulo Prop. 4136 cannot anymore revert to being “public land” (since the
lands under TP 4136 have since 1894 been owned as private lands, and as such had
been registered with the Spanish Mortgage Law, and the Treaty of Paris of 1898; in
addition to the fact that the lands have already been declared “alienable and
disposable” by the Bureau of Forestry, and that it has been a time-honored
principle that “what has become private land cannot anymore become public”), and
since the public-interest San Pedro Foundation has already been prepared by the
judicially confirmed next of “kin” and true legal heir of Don Mariano E. San Pedro
(Don Alejandro P. San Pedro)---ready to democratize the base of power in the
Philippines, assert the interest of the people, and also to avoid the lands
getting to fall in the hands of unscrupulous landgrabbers-developers, (and as well
as to the false heirs and fraudulent San Pedro claimants),---the Hon. Supreme
Court in a stroke of statesmanship, and of activist judicial wisdom, although not
easily understood and discernible to most people, has forever wrote finish to the
celebrated San Pedro controversy, (but not without a happy ending, and with
ultimate poetic justice dispensed in favor of judicially confirmed next of “kin”
and true legal heir of Don Mariano E. San Pedro--Don Alejandro P. San Pedro).
AND, THUS HOW OUR FAITH IN THE HON. SUPREME COURT HAS BEEN STRENGTHENED EVEN MORE,
BUT ONLY AFTER WE HAVE NOW FULLY UNDERSTOOD THE WHOLE INTENT AND RAMIFICATIONS OF
THEIR 1996 EN BANC DECISION ON THE SAN PEDRO CONTROVERSY. INDEED, THE HON. SUPREME
COURT DISPENSES JUSTICE TO ALL BUT ULTIMATELY SIDES WITH THE DISADVANTAGED PEOPLE,
AND THAT, TODAY, ALL REJOICE BECAUSE THE PEOPLE THEMSELVES WILL BE SERVED AND
BENEFITED BY THE DRAMATIC RESOLUTION ON THE OWNERSHIP OF THE VAST TRACTS OF LAND
IN QUESTION. On the side of the judicially confirmed next of kin and true legal
heirs, we know of the great sacrifices they have made for the country, and they
are always like today serving as mere instruments for greater cause and social
justice. It is befitting to remember now that Don Alejandro died a decent man; he
was poor, but he served the country well, during World War II he was a volunteer
guerrilla boy-runner under the Gen. Walter Cushing Guerrilla Unit undertaking
dangerous missions behind enemy lines at the age of 14; Don Luis his father was an
official Rizalista master who died in the war (1946) supervising the activities of
their nationalist organization; Don Luis’ beautiful, wife Dona Gorgonia Pascual,
herself, suffered severe torture from Kempetais, because she would not reveal
information, out of love for country and her family that went underground to fight
the Japanese; Don Mariano himself, while being a Spanish subject, was raised in a
great liberal tradition; he was an industrious nobleman, as he in fact toiled his
way to prominence, even meriting great land concessions from the grateful civil
government of his time. Don Mariano San Pedro provided indispensable service in
public works to the Spanish Crown and the Office of the Governor General of the
Islands.
IN THE MANNER OF SEEKING JUSTICE FROM THE COURTS OF LAW, DON ALEJANDRO WAS HONEST
AND ABOVE-BOARD IN HIS PETITIONS WITH THE HON. COURTS. Don Alejandro San Pedro did
not have service of top law firms that require high compensation, he signed his
own petitions to government, but he had the original and authentic Spanish
documents of heirship with Don Mariano E. San Pedro, which he submitted to the
Hon. Courts of law,--and the truth won the day for him. (Please see the Resolution
en banc of the Hon. Supreme Court, dated Feb. 28, 1989—directing Judge Oscar
Ofilada himself to look for the real heirs of Don Mariano E. San Pedro—please see
the jurisdictional and fact finding Court Orders (dated Jan. 28, 1996 and June 13,
1997) of Judge Ofilada that determined and confirmed Don Alejandro P. San Pedro,
Sr. as the next of kin and true legal heir of Don Mariano E. San Pedro.)
IN REGARD TO THE TRIAL ON APPEAL IN THE HON. SUPREME COURT THAT WAS INITIATED BY
PEDRO IGNACIO, ALIAS ENGRACIO SAN PEDRO, DON ALEJANDRO NATURALLY SIDED WITH JUDGE
FERNANDEZ AND THE GOVERNMENT. It is the “truth presentation” of genuine and
authentic old Spanish documents (establishing his kinship with Don Mariano San
Pedro), which encouraged the Supreme Court to destroy the land and squatter
syndicates (at that time headed by, among others, alias Engracio San Pedro), and
to write finish to the San Pedro controversy. When Hon. Supreme Court finally
issued its en banc Decision on the San Pedro estate, Don Alejandro lost no time in
sending his “Manipestasyon at Papuri” to Hon. Supreme Court, and the Hon. Court
returned the gesture with rewards, i.e. thru Hon. Judge Carlos Ofilada in Spec.
Proc. Case 312-B.
REWARDS IN THE FIGHT AGAINST UNSCRUPULOUS LAND SYNDICATES AND AS WELL AS FALSE
HEIRS AND FRAUDULENT CLAIMANTS. As a result, Don Alejandro San Pedro’s kinship and
heirship with Don Mariano E. San Pedro had been fully established and confirmed.
He was made the Special Administrator, by the Hon. Court, for the true and legal
estate of Don Mariano E. San Pedro. Don Alejandro was also granted the “authority
to sell 169 has.” within the adjudicated 445 has. San Pedro property in
Norzagaray, Bulacan. And lastly, the Securities and Exchange Commission gave him
full authority and reserved to him alone the use of the name of “Don Mariano E.
San Pedro Foundation, Inc.” as title of foundation. IN GRATITUDE TO THE GOVERNMENT
AND THE PEOPLE, when Don Alejandro San Pedro prepared and personally wrote his
holographic Last Will & Testament, he first secured enough part (20%) of the San
Pedro estate for the sake of his heirs and his illegitimate and legitimate sisters
in pro-indiviso equal shares; then he sought to inform all and sundry the
necessity to invest the Don Mariano E. San Pedro Foundation, Inc. with enabling
fund totalling 80% of the whole San Pedro estate for the sake of the country, for
the advancement of science and technology, for the modernization of industries,
for the rehabilitation and upgrade of human settlements, and for the maintenance
of peace and order in the country. FINAL JUSTICE IS POETIC JUSTICE. And lastly,
since the syndicates and the unscrupulous malefactors of the Titulo Propriedad
4136 have greatly abused and exploited the name of our beloved Don Mariano E. San
Pedro in amassing hundred thousand hectares, and in adversely occupying vast
tracts of land, as inventoried in the 1976 Order of Judge Fernandez, and in the
collection of double II plans in the name of Don Conrado Ignacio: it is the stand
of this representation and of the Don Mariano E. San Pedro Foundation, Inc., in
regard to ownership of those lands, that: The law on agency holds! And we declare,
that, howsoever much they have acquired and however far they have brought to
exploit the name of Don Mariano San Pedro, there will we come over to prosecute
the interest of the San Pedro estate—which is now owned, administered and held in
trust by the San Pedro Foundation......for Philippines progress and world
understanding .

(SUCH IS THE NATURE OF “ESTATE OF THE DECEASED”. Before its final “execution” in a
will or the termination of its “administration”, it partakes of a dynamic
character, enabling it to grow by virtue of sound management by a succession of
its administrators or tenants or their voluntary counterparts, or a windfall may
come from nowhere to enrich it more. Or that due to bad management, the estate is
dissipated; but if there is a showing of fraud or bad faith, the administrator,
trustee or tenant, voluntary or not, he alone becomes responsible; and like in
agency and as implied trustee, his gains in using the name and body of the estate
redound not to him but always to the estate, while he alone suffers, and shall be
prosecuted for the loss and damage he incurred and voluntarily committed.--Adapted
from varied legal definitions given to “estate of the deceased” by Black’s Law
Dictionary,) IN THIS CONNECTION: THE 50,000 HAS. LANDS IN QUEZON, RIZAL AND LAGUNA
could not have been validly acquired by Green Square Properties Corporation from
any supposed seller it transacted that only misrepresented the San Pedro estate.
(Pls. see G.R. No. 139274, Oct. 2001.) The original Tax Declaration issued in
favor of the heirs of Don Mariano San Pedro is, and remains, valid. WE MUST BEAR
IN MIND that such Tax Declaration for the 50,000 has. property in Quezon Rizal and
Laguna provinces are in the name of Heirs of Don Mariano E. San Pedro. They are
here alive, judicially confirmed as “next of kin” and “true legal heirs” of Don
Mariano, and vested with power to succeed the deceased and to administer the San
Pedro estate. NOW THAT THE PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT OF QUEZON received mandate from
Hon. Supreme Court in refusing to honor tax payments by Green Square, the real,
original and legal right and privilege of ownership remain with the said true
owners of the property, or of the San Pedro estate,—whose present institutional
judicial administrator is the Don Mariano E. San Pedro Foundation, Inc. THE
PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT (in violation of the Constitutional right to property of the
judicially confirmed next of kin and true legal heirs of Don Mariano San Pedro)
cannot invalidate it now in the aftermath of the criminal sales transactions
between said fraudulent parties. THE FRAUDULENT ALLEGED-ADMINISTRATOR, who is
supposedly an officer of the Court, but does not have any legal mandate on record
(or whose mandate has expired on the date of sales-transaction with Green Square,
in August 1996), together with the Hon. Court who approved the transaction, must
bear full responsibility of the criminal act of large-scale estafa. (The legal San
Pedro estate, much less the San Pedro Foundation—being the institutional judicial
administrator, is innocent and clean on this sales-transaction, they are the
victims here, and should not be visited by the effects of guilt of fraudulent
parties in the said criminal sales-transaction.) FOR ITS PART, GREEN SQUARE, a
company involved in realty business as it is, if it is not a colluding co-
conspirator in the criminal transaction, must have exercised caution and should
always bear in mind the adage of “Caveat emptor”, even as (particularly) because
of its greed, it chose not to transact with the rightful owner, Don Alejandro P.
San Pedro, Sr., who, at the right time, had just been determined as next of kin
and true legal heir of Don Mariano E. San Pedro, in addition to being appointed by
the jurisdictional and fact-finding Hon. Court as the new Special Administrator of
the “estate of Don Mariano E. San Pedro”. (Pls. see Bulacan RTC, Br. 15, Spec.
Proc. Case No. 312-B, Pres. Judge Carlos Ofilada, Court Order, dated Jan. 31,
1996, with bond posted, and issued Letters of Special Administration dated April
15, 1996. Pls. compare said dates with Green Square’s date of fraudulent-
acquisition--August 1996, allegedly from the “estate of Don Mariano E. San
Pedro”.)
