REJOINDER TO REPLY AFFIDAVIT

I, BRUNO MARS, Filipino, single, of legal age and with

residence and postal address at 456 Ayala Avenue, Makati City,
after having been sworn on oath in accordance with law, depose
and say:

1. That defendant herein reiterates what she stated in his

ANSWER as being the truth and nothing but the truth on the
existence of the Contract of Lease between the former and
complainant ED SHEERAN;

2. That defendant was in good faith upon paying his

monthly rentals to WILLIAM SHEERAN, brother of herein
complainant from June 2016 to January 2017, prior to the
institution of this present case.

1
 3. That defendant was made to believe that WILLIAM
SHEERAN was instructed and authorized by Complainant to collect
the monthly rentals and due to his relation to complainant, herein
defendant made no inquiries as to his authority because the same
was living with complainant.

4. That it was almost six months since that he had been

paying his due rentals before he was informed that none of his
paid rentals was handed over to complainant. Defendant, in full
good faith believed that he had settled his obligations.

5. That defendant made it known to complainant that his

monthly obligations were duly paid to complainants brother and
showed him the copy of the acknowledgment receipts signed by
the latter from June 2016 to January 2017, Exhibit- 1 of the
Answer.

6. That defendant never refused any payment, being such

the case, he should never be ordered to vacate the premises nor
pay the complainant the monthly rentals in question.

7. That from the facts herein presented, it is immaculately

clear that no valid cause exist for the defendant to be civilly liable
to the complainant.

8. All told, the case for UNLAWFUL DETAINER be should be

dismissed for lack of legal and factual basis.

Respectfully submitted,

BRUNO MARS
Affiant
