subject property and that there are no conflicts or legal encumbrances
between/among with respect to said exact area boundaries; Copy of the
Affidavit of Adjoining Owner with respective Certified True Copy of the
title is herein attached as Exhibit “G”.

5. Prompted by this event, Petitioner sought the assistance of the Registry

of Deeds Meycauyan to verify the details appearing in the Transfer
Certificate of Title and found out that there was indeed a discrepancy in
the area provided in the title vis-à -vis in the approved survey plan.

6. Said discrepancy was inadvertently committed while the technical

description for the new TCT of the property was encoded.

7. Thus, this instant Petition is being filed pursuant to Section 108, P.D. No.
1529 provided as follows:

xxx

Section 108. Amendment and alteration of certificates. No

erasure, alteration, or amendment shall be made upon the
registration book after the entry of a certificate of title or of a
memorandum thereon and the attestation of the same by the
Register of Deeds, except by order of the proper Court of First
Instance. A registered owner or other person having interest
in the registered property, or, in proper cases, the Register of
Deeds with the approval of the Commissioner of Land
Registration, may apply by petition to the court upon the
ground that the registered interest of any description, whether
vested, contingent, expectant or inchoate appearing on the
certificate, have terminated and ceased; or that new interest not
appearing upon the certificate have arisen or been created; or that
an omission or an error was made in entering a certificate or
any memorandum thereon, or on any duplicate certificate: or
that the same or any person in the certificate has been changed or
that the registered owner has married, or, if registered as
married, that the marriage has been terminated and no right or
interest of heirs or creditors will thereby be affected; or that a
corporation which owned registered land and has been dissolved
has not yet convened the same within three years after its
dissolution; or upon any other reasonable ground; and the
court may hear and determine the petition after notice to all
parties in interest, and may order the entry or cancellation of
a new certificate, the entry or cancellation of a memorandum
upon a certificate, or grant any other relief upon such terms
and conditions, requiring security and bond if necessary, as it
may consider proper; Provided, however, That this section shall
not be construed to give the court authority to reopen the
judgment or decree of registration, and that nothing shall be done
or ordered by the court which shall impair the title or other
interest of a purchaser holding a certificate for value and in good
faith, or his heirs and assigns without his or their written consent.
Where the owners duplicate certificate is not presented, a similar
petition may be filed as provided in the preceding section.

All petitions or motions filed under this section as well as any

other provision of this decree after original registration shall be
filed and entitled in the original case in which the decree of
registration was entered.
xxx
(Emphasis and underscore ours)
 WHEREFORE, it is respectfully prayed that the petition be granted and
the Registry of Deeds be ordered to a new title bearing the correct details of
the property respectively pursuant to the Technical Descriptions duly
approved by the Department of Natural Resources.

Other just and equitable relief and remedies are likewise prayed for.
