00:30Attorney?
00:31Maraming nga nagtatanong, Fifi, kung ano nga ang mga karapatan at responsibilidad na magkarelasyon na magkasama sa iisang bubong kung saan ang isa sa kanila ay mayroong usawa.
00:41At upang malinawa natin, mga ka-RSP, tungkol sa usapik ito, tatalakay natin kung ano ang legal epekto nito.
00:49Okay, Attorney, we want to know, kailangan natin dinawin, ano po ba ang status ng pakikisama sa taong may asawa? Ito ba ay legal o hindi?
00:57Okay. Umuulan sa labas, Fifi, pero mukhang mainit at madaming gustong maluod kasi napakainit ang topic natin today.
01:06Yes.
01:07Okay, so going back to your original question, of course, sa mata ng ating batas, ang kasal hanggat ito ay hindi napapuwalang visa ng korte ay bananatiling valid and subsisting.
01:20In other words, it has to be respected.
01:23Okay.
01:23Attorney, kapag babae po ang kasal at nakikisama siya sa hindi niya asawa, ano pong epekto nito?
01:29So kung yung babae kasal at nakikisama siya sa isang lalaki na hindi niya asawa, may legal consequence yun.
01:35Okay.
01:36It is a crime under the law.
01:38Under the law, tinatawag itong adultery.
01:40Kung yung babae kasal, nakipag-sexual intercourse to a man who is not her husband rather, that is adultery, may imprisonment ito na 2 years and 4 months hanggang 6 years.
01:51So kahit nakasal, pero alam ba ako meron namang agreement with the husband?
01:56Agreement will not be considered by law.
01:59As long as the marriage is still valid and subsisting, wala pang court order dissolving the marriage.
02:04Still, it has legal effect and it has to be respected.
02:07Okay, I don't know if this question should be misogynistic, pero we asked a while ago kapag babae, paano naman kapag lalaki po ang kasal at nakikisama sa hindi niya asawa, anong epekto nito?
02:17So yung lalaki naman, kasal siya at nakikisama siya sa babaeng hindi niya asawa, may legal consequence nito.
02:24Okay.
02:24You can be charged of concubinage.
02:26Ah, so may pagkakaiba sa adultery at concubinage.
02:31However, yung concubinage under revised penal code, mas mahirap siyang patunayan.
02:36Okay.
02:36Unlike in adultery, kasi adultery, pag yung babae, sexual intercourse lang yung kailangan mong patunayan.
02:42Pero kung yung lalaki, may tatlo lamang na circumstances.
02:46Kung pwedeng maging liable yung lalaki sa concubinage, una, binabahay mo yung kinakasama mo sa conjugal dwelling ninyo, that's one.
02:55Okay, conjugal dwelling, okay.
02:56Second one is you had sexual intercourse doon sa kinakasama mo under scandalous circumstances.
03:02Kailangan scandalous circumstances.
03:04Sa adultery, hindi.
03:05Hindi.
03:05Ano yung, may video lang or makita on the spot?
03:08May video, dapat scandalous siya.
03:11Okay.
03:11Hindi siya dapat tinatago.
03:13Scandalous circumstances.
03:13Okay.
03:14Okay.
03:14So, of course, binabahay mo na yung kinakasama mo sa ibang bahay at yung already kung nagsasama kayo bilang husband and wife.
03:23Okay.
03:23So, kailan tayo, pwilan natin mako-consider that a certain pagsasama ay okay lang despite kung may asawa, despite kung kasal kayo.
03:33Like, meron namang, meron namang pakasunduan yung dalawa or agreement or ano ba pwede natin kontrol nito.
03:41Someone na, alam mo yun, parang okay na sa akin.
03:44Parang tanggap ko na.
03:45Magre-reach ba tayo sa adultery and concubinage kapag nag-file ako ng kaso?
03:49Pero pag di nag-file ang kaso, wala mangyayari?
03:51Well, legally, hindi talaga siya allowed.
03:53Okay.
03:54But of course, under the law, yung adultery and concubinage can only be filed by the offended party.
03:59Okay.
03:59So, in other words, kung hindi naman mag-file yung legal mong asawa, then you cannot be charged of adultery or concubinage.
04:06Ayun, ano mga reason kaya? Siguro baka dahil sa yaman o pamilya din.
04:10So, mga anak.
04:10Yes, yes.
04:11Ayun, that's the factors.
04:13Eh, pwede po ba magpamana or magbigay ng property or inheritance ng taong may asawa sa kanyang kinakasama?
04:19If not, ano pong pwedeng legal remedy for this?
04:22So, in terms of property, of course, kung nagsasama kayo yung kinakasama mo may asawa, hindi ka pwede mag-donate doon sa kinakasama mo.
04:30Okay.
04:30And in the event that there'll be a donation or disposition of your property in favor doon sa kinakasama mo na hindi mo asawa, that can be annulled or nullified by the court.
04:40Pwede nga habulin, in other words.
04:42Ayun.
04:42Kung sakaling may hindi ba kakunawa na, alimbawa, sa pera o property attorney, paano po ito'y na-handle ang batas?
04:49Sa mata ng batas, yung relationship ninyo with legal impediment, meaning yung isa may asawa, yung isa wala, mahirap siyang patunayan, dapat mong protektahan yung kagapatan mo.
05:01Kasi pag mayroon kayong property that you bought or acquired during the subsistence of your relationship, you have to prove your actual contribution.
05:11Okay, as a paramour.
05:13Yes. Dapat mayroon kang inambag, may binayad ka, may contribution ka, in order to acquire that property.
05:20Tapos, i-accounting pa ba yun at titignan kung ilan yung hati mo, hindi naman?
05:24Yes. So, kung baga kung ano yung napatunayan mo, na-contribution mo, that will be your proportionate share in the property that you have acquired.
05:34Okay. Any cases na hinandil mo na ganito? Very complicated, attorney.
05:37Madaming ganyang mga kaso.
05:39Talaga?
05:39Madaming ganyang kaso at it is emotionally charged.
05:42Okay.
05:43Kasi syempre, it does not only involve the legalities, but also a lot of emotions.
05:48Kasi we're talking about relationships.
05:50Okay. How do we determine the charges for that? Like for instance, emotional charges.
05:54Is it being set by the party?
05:56Okay. Doon sa emotionally charged, kasi syempre, yung iba ayaw naman talaga mahiwalay.
06:02Yung isa naman gusto na and all.
06:04But if you're talking about emotional abuse or psychological violence, pwede din yan.
06:09May bago tayong decision na sexual infidelity can be a cause for psychological violence.
06:15Ayun. Attorney, what if chances are, nagsasama yung either babae o lalaki, kung sino man yung may paramour sa kanila, and then nagkaroon ng illegitimate child or children, paano ang pagmana rito?
06:27Okay. Yung illegitimate child, of course, mayagan din siyang rights, but mas konti yung rights niya as compared to illegitimate child.
06:35To be determined by the court as well?
06:37Yes, but usually kalahati. Kung kalahati na matatanggap, yung illegitimate child, kalahati nung share ng legitimate child.
06:46Ayun.
06:46In general.
06:47Payo na lang, attorney, para sa mga ganitong mga may set-up, kailangan, protektado ba sila or what?
06:52Yes, of course, so ganitong mga set-up, dapat protektado ka, lalong-lalo na kung with legal impediment yung kinakasama mo.
07:01So you have to document to prove your actual contribution in acquiring the property.
07:06And at the end of the day, yung pagmamahal or relationship, it requires respect.
07:10Respect sa bawat isa, but also respeto din sa legal na pananagutan mo.
07:15Ikotor, nipipili ka ba ng partner na may legal impediment?
07:19Legality aside, personally, I think true love should not create chaos. It should bring peace.
07:27So hindi pagmamahal ang paggagawa ng away?
07:31Kung nagbibigay sa'yo ng chaos, it's not true love. It should bring peace, not chaos.
07:36Taray na mo. Maraming salamat sa toyo dyan, eh.
07:38So kay ni Roel Ilagan, maraming salamat sa pagmamahagin na mahalang informasyon patungkol sa usaping ito.
07:44At para sa ating mga ka-RSP, mahalagang mag-inform tayo sa ating mga legal na karapatan at responsibilidad.
07:51Lalo na kung pumasok sa ganitong uri ng relasyon, klarong komunikasyon, at kalaman sa batas ang susi
07:58para maiwasan ang hindi pagkakaunawaan at protektahan ang ating sarili.
08:03Dahil sa dulo na lahat, ang tanong ay dapat, legal ba?
