walang quick answer yata yang quick question mo.
1) don't use accuse if it's a civil case. call the other guy defendant. small claims ito di ba? yung akusado, sa criminal yan.
2) proof that you sent demand? the demand letter and the post office registry receipt with return card. yung last known address ok na yan or the address mentioned in the contract. you had a transaction with him and you didn't know his personal circumstances?
3) kung sakaling mananalo ka paano mo ma-execute yung judgment against your debtor kung di mo alam yung exact address niya? so ano gagawin mo? kailangan alam mo kung may real property ba siya. so, punta ka sa registry of deeds of his last known address baka may naka pangalan sa kanya para ma - attach mo o mag sleuthing ka baka malalalaman kung saang banko naka-deposito yung kayamanan niya para ma-attach mo rin o sa LTO baka may sasakyan si magulang para ma-attach mo rin.
4) alam mo kailangan talagang malaman mo yung address, not so much of the requirement that there must proof of service of demand letter, but the necessity of him receiving the court summons kasi kapag di niya na- receive yang summons na yan the court cannot acquire jurisdiction over his person. if the the court did not acquire jurisdiction over his person, any decision rendered by the court is void.
5) so paano na yan? kailangan malaman mo saan yung ari-arian niya mentioned in no.3 above. kung alam mo na, at di mo pa rin alam saan makita si magulang o baka nangingibang bansa, summon by publication then the attach the property.
6) kung sakaling manalo kana at na- attach mo yung property niya, i-auction yan ng court sheriff and the proceeds will be used to satisfy his debt to you and the expenses incurred in the auction. the person who won in the auction would only be given a certificate of sale, not deed of sale because si magulang has the right of redemption or equity of redemption before the confirmation of sale (that is, before the lapse of one year from the issuance of the certificate of sale).
