under the LAND REGISTRATION ACT (Act no. 496, P.D. no. 1529 AN ACT TO PROVIDE FOR THE ADJUDICATION AND REGISTRATION OF TITLES TO LANDS IN THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS) and the PUBLIC LAND ACT (Com. Act no. 141 AN ACT TO AMEND AND COMPILE THE LAWS RELATIVE TO LANDS OF THE PUBLIC DOMAIN) LRA There exists an imperfect title requiring judicial confirmation. PLA Property owned by the state is granted, under certain conditions, to an applicant, with title thereto issuing upon compliance with the requirements of the law. The grant is in the nature of a contract between the applicant and the state; recourse to the court is not absolutely indispensable. If the application has been denied or the grant has been revoked, the applicant/ grantee cannot anymore avail of another application or grant, nor he be allowed to register the property in his name (fatal to subsequent attempt at registration). Denial of registration carries with it the risk of the property being taken by state as a consequence. Not a proceeding in rem, since it is between the applicant/ grantee and the state; however, a title once issued after ownership is vested on applicant/ grantee is effective as a Torrens Title and binding on the whole world. Entry and possession is generally granted upon successful application if the applicant is not already in possession of the property.

REVERSION
A writ of possession will be issued as a matter of right in favor of a successful registrant, which can only be availed of once and only effective against those possessing the property before and at the moment of issuance. Titled property is not subject to reversion (generally)
Even after the lapse of one (1) year after registration, the property may be reverted to the state on the grounds of fraud or alienation or encumbrance within the prohibited period.
(2) Land Titles and Deeds THREE PRINCIPLES BEHIND THE TORRENS SYSTEM
1. MIRROR PRINCIPLE every transaction, lien or encumbrance involving titled property is accurately reflected on the face of the title. The actual status of the titled property can thus be seen by mere examination of the title. parties to a transaction need not look beyond what is apparent on the face of the title for hidden defects or unrecorded encumbrances. the Torrens system assures that damages resulting from the implementation of the system will be answered by a state assurance fund. For the purpose of the continued operation of the system, the state is made suable in the appropriate instances.
