Under the Notarial Rules, the fact that the signatory is personally known to the notary public may excuse him only of presenting his competent evidence of identity. Personal appearance is still an absolute requirement.

Here, A cannot notarize the Contract of Lease since the personal appearance requirement is not met.

Thus, A was incorrect.

The Bar Examinations are ultimately a numbers game. The more correct answers you accumulate across all subjects, the greater your chances of passing. Every point matters, and no subject should be treated as an afterthought.

The key to answering situational-type bar questions is mastering the long-standing doctrines that govern them. An added advantage is being familiar with the different factual scenarios in jurisprudence where these doctrines have been applied, enabling you to identify the controlling rule even when the facts are presented differently.

In ๐Š๐„๐˜๐’ ๐“๐Ž ๐“๐‡๐„ ๐๐€๐‘, these doctrines are paired with carefully selected bar-style questions and concise case illustrations, allowing you to appreciate not only the rule of law but also the factual circumstances that trigger its application. The goal is not merely to memorize legal principles, but to develop the analytical skill to recognize them in any bar examination problem.

The (SC) has ruled that a husband and wifeโ€™s mutual desire to end their marriage, by itself, is not enough to prove collusion in a petition for declaration of nullity of marriage. A lack of objection is not the same as collusion.

In a Decision written by Associate Justice Maria Filomena D. Singh, the SCโ€™s Third Division ruled that there was no collusion between the spouses in a petition to declare their marriage void. โ€œCollusionโ€ means that the spouses secretly agreed to fake or misrepresent facts in order to nullify their marriage.

The SC voided the marriage due to the husbandโ€™s psychological incapacity.

The wife filed the petition before the Regional Trial Court (RTC) alleging that her husband was unable to fulfill his marital duties because of continued physical, psychological, and economic abuse, which she said began even before their marriage.

When the husband did not file his answer to the petition, the RTC directed the Provincial Prosecutor to investigate possible collusion between the spouses. The Associate Provincial Prosecutor reported that there was no collusion.

During trial, the wife presented several witnesses while the husband presented none. He also did not oppose the petition.

Despite this, the RTC dismissed the case, ruling that the evidence did not sufficiently prove psychological incapacity.

The RTC pointed out that the husbandโ€™s father admitted discussing his testimony with his son, and that the husband was willing to have the marriage dissolved.

Explaining that collusion is a secret agreement to defraud or obtain something illegal, the SC noted that although the RTC observed suspicious circumstances, these did not clearly prove that the spouses conspired to fake grounds to nullify their marriage.

The SC emphasized that a mutual desire to end the marriage does not automatically mean collusion. A spouseโ€™s agreement or lack of objection is not the same as a secret scheme to mislead the court.

Without proof that the spouses faked evidence or suppressed valid defenses, collusion cannot be established.

It added that the husbandโ€™s failure to file an answer or present evidence does not, by itself, prove collusion.

In the case of Mesina v. Heirs of Fian, the Supreme Court held that the exclusion of the indispensable parties does not amount to a failure to state the cause of action, because the inclusion of the indispensable party is not an essential element of a cause of action. Consequently, the infirmity is properly a non-joinder of an indispensable party. Moreover, the Rules of Court provides that non-joinder of an indispensable party is not a ground for dismissal.

Here, the fact that the co-heirs were not impleaded constitutes non-joinder of indispensable parties and not failure to state the cause of action. Thus, the defendant is incorrect since non-joinder of indispensable parties is not a ground for dismissal.

In the Bar Examinations, the examiner does not always directly test a single rule or provision. More often, the examinee is challenged to distinguish between two related concepts governed by different provisions of the Rules, especially if they are made an issue in a case decided by the Supreme Court.

Thus, identifying the issue is itself part of the examination. The issue presented in a Bar question is not always a given. It must first be discerned from the facts before the correct rule can be applied.

Here, the issue is not only whether dismissal is proper, but also whether the ground for the dismissal is correct. To correctly answer the former, the examinee must first be firm as to the latter.

Distinguishing these four types of jurisdictions is a fundamental yet frequently tested area in Remedial Law. The rules are spread across substantive and procedural law, with specific exceptions and nuances that many candidates struggle to recall under pressure.

๐Š๐„๐˜๐’ ๐“๐Ž ๐“๐‡๐„ ๐๐€๐‘ presents them in one consolidated Doctrine Mapping.

The matrix clearly shows:

โ€ฃ Jurisdiction over Subject Matter (governed by substantive law, including special rules under RA 9700)
โ€ฃ Jurisdiction over the Person (procedural law, voluntary or coercive process)
โ€ฃ Jurisdiction over Res or Property in Litigation (actual/constructive seizure or provision of law)
โ€ฃ Jurisdiction over Issues (allegations, agreement, or waiver)

This side-by-side presentation helps candidates master the sources, acquisition, and distinctions for stronger recall during the bar exam.
