Jamby Madrigal: I’m not greedy, it’s a hatchet job on me

Enrile’s view

Chito Madrigal passed away on March 24 leaving her fortune to her husband, former Foreign Affairs Minister Manuel Collantes, Jamby’s elder sister Susana Madrigal, a grandchild, Vicente P. Gustav Warns, and a niece, Gizela M. Gonzalez-Montinola, whose husband, Bank of the Philippine Islands president Aurelio Montinola, executed the childless billionaire’s will two years ago.

Madrigal’s colleague, Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile, opined that Madrigal was fighting a lost cause.

“I would not begrudge her claiming something from her aunt. But she is not a forced heir,” Enrile said. “Maybe her lawyer knows something I have not learned when I was in law school. But unless the Civil Code was changed, I think she will lose.”

Enrile said Madrigal could not do anything if she was left out of her aunt’s will.

“In the case of Chito Madrigal, I’m talking now without knowing all the facts. If she was married to Maning her widower, then only Maning Collantes is a forced heir and his entitlement is equal to the share of a legitimate child,” said Enrile.

“Being a niece, you are not a forced heir, you do not inherit by law, you inherit by the grace of the deceased.”

Compulsory/forced heirs succeed to the estate whether the deceased likes it or not. They cannot be deprived of participation in the inheritance except by disinheritance properly effected following the requirements of the law.

Jamby fights for share of aunt's inheritance

[SIZE=3] [SIZE=2]A feud is brewing among members of the Madrigal clan as Sen. Ma. Ana Consuelo "Jamby" Madrigal fights for her share of inheritance from her late aunt, socialite Chito Madrigal Collantes.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]Collantes, who died last March 24, left assets reportedly worth billions of pesos. But in her last will and testament, she did not include Sen. Madrigal.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]However, the senator's sister, Chuchu Madrigal Eduque, was stipulated to receive 40 per cent of Collantes' residuary estate.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]Residuary estate is defined in law dictionaries as what is left of an estate after debts, taxes, expenses, and specified gifts have been paid and distributed. It is "often the largest portion." [/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]"Ang isyu dito hustisya at prinsipyo. Hindi pera ang habol ko dito. (The issue here is justice and principle. I am not after the money.)," Madrigal told ABS-CBN News.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]Reports said the senator was not included in Collantes' will because the late socialite already spent a lot of money for Sen. Madrigal's failed bid for a Senate seat in 2001 and in her successful campaign in 2004.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]It's futile: Enrile[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile, a lawyer, said Madrigal's fight for what she believes is her inheritance is futile because she isn't Collantes' child.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]Under the law, he said, only the children and the spouse of a deceased person have the right to fight for their share of an inheritance.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]"Unless the civil code has changed, I think she will lose. Eh kung ayaw kang pamanahan, anong magagawa mo? (If she does not want to give you inheritance, what can you do?)" Enrile said.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]Madrigal said that at the moment the issue is a family affair, but she will release details once it becomes a public affair.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]"'Pag malaman nyo yung katotohanan, it will be one of the biggest telenovelas. And you will be there to know," Madrigal said. Report from Lynda Jumilla, ABS-CBN News[/SIZE]

Hindi daw pera ang habol niya. Baka bahay, lupa o kotse...

"Pag malaman nyo yung katotohanan, it will be one of the biggest telenovelas. And you will be there to know," Madrigal said.

Hindi kaya siya 'anak' noong Chito Madrigal?

Para raw telenovela and that is according to her.........

Inaapi siya ng mga kapatid niya kaya nag-aral ng karate sa tulong ng kanyang tiya(dito nagsimula ang pagiging lalaki niya). Nagkaroon ng boyfriend pero nahuli niyang may kasamang lalaki kaya naging "Jamboy" siya. Tapos, para gumanti mga kapatid niya, pinakidnap siya at tinubos ng tiya niya. Para gumanti, tumakbong senador para hindi na siya apihin. Then, the story goes on ang on.:gayfight:"Ng Dahil sa Pera" yun ang pamagat na nasa isip ko(sensya na kung corny, di ako marunong gumawa ng script)


Gawa tayo ng kwento kung ano nga iyon.

Apparently Jamby lost her case and maybe her mind. Ayaw pa umamin natalo siya, even when she gets alienated from the Madrigal clan.

Court junks Jamby bid to annul late aunt's last will

A Makati Regional Trial Court has thrown out Sen. Maria Ana Consuelo "Jamby" Madrigal’s petition to annul the last will and testament of her aunt and namesake, Consuelo "Chito" Madrigal-Collantes, who excluded the lawmaker as one of the heirs to her multi-million peso fortune.

In a decision dated July 2, Judge Oscar Pimentel said Madrigal’s motion amounted to a petition for annulment of his decision two years ago validating Collantes’ will.

"The decree of probate is conclusive... and cannot be impugned. This court’s final decision dated September 20, 2006 must stand," Pimentel said in his five-page order.

He gave the executors of the will, Collantes’ nephew-in-law Aurelio Montinola III, and lawyer Perry Pe, to administer and dispose of Collantes’ properties that amount to P26.13 million.

In his decision, Pimentel said Madrigal was free to file the appropriate case to annul the court’s original judgment upholding Collantes’ will.

At the same time, amid claims by Madrigal that her aunt’s fortune was much more than P26 million, Pimentel said any other property owned by Collantes that may be discovered hereon and not covered by the will should be settled in accordance with the rules on legal succession.

Drawn up when the socialite was still alive, the will explicitly bequeathed her properties to her husband, former foreign affairs minister Manuel Collantes, a grand-nephew, a number of nieces and nephews, including Madrigal’s older sister, Susana. The senator and another sister were left out.

Victory just the same

"Madrigal, however, said the ruling was a victory against the alleged crimes committed by her relatives, her own sister included, in supposedly appropriating Collantes’ fortune to themselves.

Crime does not pay because it was proven that there is justice in the Philippines because the court recognized that nieces and nephews are included as heirs," Madrigal said, insisting that her aunt's fortune was more than P26.13 million.

Ernesto Francisco Jr., the senator's lawyer, said they would not longer move for reconsideration of the ruling but instead, have the will declared invalid before the Court of Appeals. Madrigal has claimed the signature on her aunt’s will was forged.

Valid will

But Pe, in a telephone conversation, merely laughed off Madrigal’s claims. He declined to be interviewed on camera but allowed himself to be quoted thus: "The order speaks for itself. It upholds Doña Chito’s will as valid."

A source close to the Madrigal family insists all of Collantes’ known properties were covered by the will. As to the P26.13 million estimated value, the source emphasized this was based on the value of the property when these were acquired by Collantes several decades ago. The source also dismissed Madrigal’s claim the court order acknowledged her and other relatives as legal heirs.

"You don’t have to go to court to be declared a legal heir. The issue here is whether she is a forced heir and has claim over the properties cited in the will. And she is not," the source said.
