Defendant by the undersigned counsel Court most respectfully
moves that the attachment issued ex-parte by this Honorable Court be discharged on the following grounds:
1. The defendant emphatically denies that he received in
full the construction materials mentioned in the complaint.
2. It is not true, as stated in the affidavit of the plaintiff, that
there is no other sufficient security for the claim sought to be recovered in this action. The defendant is possessed of substantial properties whose value is worth several times the amount claimed by the plaintiff. The issuance of a writ of attachment against defendant’s properties is consequently unwarranted highly prejudicial to, and will cause, the defendant, irreparable damage and injury. At any rate, defendant is hereby posting a counter bond issued against the writ of attachment now deposited with the BPI bank.
3. The defendant denies the allegations in the complaint
that they are guilty of fraud in contracting the obligations considering that there were several payments made to the plaintiff, and the defendant is asking for an accounting of all the materials delivered less the payments made.
WHEREFORE, it is urgently prayed that the Order of
attachment, issued ex-parte by this Honorable Court on May 3, _________ at the instance of the plaintiff, be discharged and lifted.
Such other relief and remedies as may be deemed just and
equitable under the premises are likewise prayed for.
