GROUNDS FOR CANCELLATION OF HEIRS’ LIEN

4. TCT No. 076-2022002327 was registered in the name of Petitioner on 19 April 2022. TCT
No. 076-2022002327 was derived from Katibayan ng Orihinal na Titulo [Original
Certificate of Title (OCT)] No. 2013000633, which was registered in the name of Romulo
T. Kiamzon, a copy of which is hereto attached as Annex “B”.

1
5. The date of the instrument referred to in the annotation quoted in Paragraph 2 of this Petition
is 21 June 2017. More than two (2) years had passed, and since then, no claim by any
disenfranchised heir or creditor has been filed. Thus, the period allowed by law or the
Rules of Court (Section 4, Rule 74) to file a claim has already lapsed.

6. Based on the foregoing, the reglementary period of two (2) years for any disenfranchised heir
or creditor of the Estate of Romulo T. Kiamzon, to file a claim over the parcel of land
presently covered by TCT No. 076-2022002327 has already expired or lapsed, and no claim
has been made or filed by a legal heir or creditor of Romulo T. Kiamzon against his
estate. Therefore, the annotation covering the Heirs’ Lien quoted on Paragraph #2 of
this Petition may now be cancelled.

PRAYER

WHEREFORE, it is respectfully prayed and moved that this Honorable Office CANCEL the
Heirs’ Lien quoted on Paragraph #2 of this Petition annotated on Transfer Certificate of Title
[TCT] No. 076-2022002327 issued under the name of herein Petitioner.

Other reliefs as are just and equitable under the circumstances are likewise prayed for.
