COMPLAINT-AFFIDAVIT

THE UNDERSIGNED COMPLAINANT respectfully alleges:

I, Katya Garci, of legal age, Filipino, single, the Collection’s Officer and
legal representative in this case of National Bank of Angeles, Inc.
(“NBAI”) a domestic corporation duly organized and existing under and by
virtue of Philippine laws, with principal office at 24 th Floor Zuellig Building,
Makati Ave. corner Paseo de Roxas Ave, Philippines, after having been duly
sworn to in accordance with law, hereby accuses:

Anthony James (“James”), single, a resident of 123 Lakers Road,


Antipolo, Rizal where he may be served with summons and notices may be
served for violation of BP22 committed as follows:

2. That on 01 January 2020, the respondent borrowed from the


complainant through its authorized representative May Bush, at the
company’s principal office, a sum of money amounting to Ten Million Pesos
(PhP10,000,000.00) with an agreed interest of 20% interest per month as
evidenced by the Contract of Loan herein attached as Annex “A” and form
an integral part of this complaint;

3. That on the same day the respondent issued a Promissory Note


promising to pay the plaintiff Twelve Million Pesos (PhP12,000,000.00)
corresponding to the amount of the loan plus interest. As security he then
issued a series of Twelve (12) post-dated Bank of the Philippine Islands
checks, with the check numbers 00001, 00002, 00003, 00004, 00005, 00006,
00007, 00008, 00009, 00010, 00011, 00012 respectively with a face value of
2

One Million Pesos (PhP1,000,000.00) each that are demandable every first
of the month starting from July 1st 2020 ending on June 1st 2021. The
Promissory Note is attached herein as Annex “B” and the Twelve (12) post-
dated checks are attached herein as Annex “B1-B12” respectively;

3. That when Check Nos. 00001, 00002, 00003 were deposited on


July 1st, August 1st, September 1st 2020 respectively, at the Bank of the
Philippine Islands Rufino Tower Branch in Makati, all of them were
returned due to insufficiency of funds;

4. That the complainant sent a Notice of Dishonor and Demand of


Payment to the defendant, giving the latter Five (5) days to pay the Three
Million Pesos (PhP3,000,000.00) or the face value of the three checks that
were dishonored by the bank. However, despite the receipt of the letter, the
defendant still refused to comply with our demand. The Notice of Dishonor
and Demand for Payment is attached herein as Annex “C” and the Registry
Return Receipt issued by the Philippines signed by the defendant as an
evidence that he received the Notice of Dishonor and Demand for Payment
as Annex “C-1”.

5. That due to the continuous failure of the defendant to make good of


his obligation the corporation suffered financial setbacks which resulted to a
manifest prejudice and damage to the corporation.

6. Further in order to enforce its rights and interests, the corporation


sought the services of a legal counsel with attorney’s fees amounting to One
Hundred Thousand Pesos (PhP 100,000.00) and an appearance fee of
Twenty Thousand Pesos (PhP 20,000.00) per hearing as evidenced by
Annex “D” – Contract for Legal Services;

7. That the plaintiff has paid for litigation expenses amounting to


Twenty Thousand Pesos (PhP 20,000.00) as evidenced by Annex “E” –
Official Receipt;

8. That I am therefore executing this complaint affidavit in order that


a criminal case for violation of Batas Pambansa Blg. 22 may be filed against
the respondent Anthony James for the purpose of recovering the face value
of the above mentioned checks, plus the corresponding interest, damages
and legal costs which may have been incurred by the corporation in
connection with this case;

9. That to the best of my knowledge the defendant Anthony James


may be served with subpoenas and other processes of this Honorable Office

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto affixed my signature this 23rd
