Check
(2013)
No.VI. Lito obtained a loan of P1,000,000
from Ferdie, payable within one year. To
secure payment, Lito executed a chattel
mortgage on a Toyota Avanza and a real
estate mortgage on a 200-square meter
piece of property.
(B) Lito's failure to pay led to the extrajudicial foreclosure of the mortgaged real
property. Within a year from foreclosure,
Lito tendered a manager's check to Ferdie to
redeem the property. Ferdie refused to
accept payment on the ground that he
wanted payment in cash: the check does
not qualify as legal tender and does not
include the interest payment. Is Ferdie's
refusal justified? (4%)
SUGGESTED ANSWER:
A check, whether a managers check or
an ordinary check is not legal tender,
and an offer of a check in payment of a
debt is not a valid tender of payment and
