Thanks for the warm greetings, mga frens.
congrats sir! ganda ng set-up nyo..san pala kayo sa marikina? salamat...
Thanks a lot, sir. Marikina Heights.
Ganda ng law office mo sir barrister, more power! Question lang atty. .can we be charged of noise pollution in case na mag reklamo ang neighbor pag malakas and sound ng HT natin?
Thanks a lot, bosing.
There's no crime of "noise pollution" in our statutes, and I'm not aware of any ordinances (laws of local application) penalizing it.
Don't confuse our laws with U.S. laws. Sa U.S., there are many state laws and local ordinances penalizing excessive noise. Their laws and ordinances usually define it as "any noise tending to unreasonably disturb the peace and quiet of the persons in the vicinity thereof." It's usually classified as a Disorderly Conduct, for which a violator may be arrested, sentenced to short jail time and/or fined. Most "loud noise complaints" involve loud parties.
In the Phil., kung maingay ang kapitbahay mo, pasensiya ka. The most you can charge your neighbor with is unjust vexation, a very light offense under the Revised Penal Code -- baka ma-dismiss pa ng prosecutor. Kasi I've never heard of anyone charged criminally for excessive noise in the Phil. before, so it's probably going to be unprecedented. Sa civil case naman, puwede ang action for damages or an action for abatement of private or public nuisance with damages. Pero ang mga ganitong civil actions for excessive noise ay mga talagang non-stop ang ingay, like noise from a Meralco substation.
For example:

Thanks a lot for the kind remarks, sir.
Actually nag-umpisa ang upgrade ko dahil sa RW-10. Napadaan lang ako sa Spectra, nakita ko yung sub. Ayun. Upgrade na pati receiver and 5 speakers.
ok panyero. congrats again.
bakit limited lang? do you work in the government?
I prefer to spend more time on other small businesses. It's easier on the nerves. BIR lang ang problema. Mahirap ang maraming kaso, panyero. Tatanda ka agad sa kunsumisyon.
ok.i'm a law student.makes me want to study more to have that set up.
That's great, panyero. It's good to hear from a future colleague.
Ang hirap maging law student - palaging kulang ang oras, ano? Konting tiyaga na lang. Matatapos din ang kalbaryo.
Exquisite set-up there for a law office, Barrister. If I should be arrested and charged with anything, I will surely contact you for my defense. So after bail, I can work with you in your office on my case. Care to PM me your contact details?
Thanks for the compliment, idol! YGPM. Civil law lang ako (property, obligations & contracts), but with your high IQ, you'd make an excellent associate. May you never need the services of a lawyer!
