NAME: GAETOS, KRISTAN RAE Y.

QUESTION/PROBLEM:
QUESTION 01: (10 pts) While the car of X was parked by the roadside, debris fell on it from the
construction handled by Engr. Y. Under the circumstances, does it follow that Engr. Y is liable to X for
the damage?
QUESTION 02: (10 pts) Has X the right to ask indemnity from R, his employer, on the ground that when
the accident occurred X was then on his way to transact business with a client of R?

QUESTION 01: Engr. Y is liable for the damage caused by the debris. Under Article 1157, sources of
obligations, quasi-delicts, it states that any damage arising through an act of omission. This includes
falling debris from the construction handled by Engr. Y. It is said that a contractor must protect the
work place from any danger or damages that may arise.

QUESTION 02: X cannot ask for indemnity for indemnity from R, because R and X does not have a signed
contract yet. There must be a direct connection of R and X. It is said that X was on his way to transact
business with R. You can ask indemnity if you two have a signed contract.

I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this assignment, nor have I knowingly tolerated
any violation of the honor code.
