- 0:05we'll be discussing on
- 0:08um
- 0:09the justifying circumstances under
- 0:12articulation
- 0:28okay
- 0:31justifying circumstances
- 0:40when you talk about justifying
- 0:41circumstances what do you mean
- 0:44if present what is the consequence if if
- 0:47there is a justifying circumstance
- 0:50in a particular case
- 0:52if there's a justifying circumstance
- 0:54then
- 0:56it is deemed as the app is in accordance
- 1:00with law
- 1:02that is it is legal
- 1:05that the upper form is no full
- 1:08so therefore in justifying there is no
- 1:12civil liability a criminal liability
- 1:16there is no criminal liability because
- 1:18the app is going to be
- 1:20in accordance with the law okay it is
- 1:24legal
- 1:26and how do you compare this to article
- 1:2912
- 1:31article 12 speaks about accepting
- 1:34circumstances
- 1:37okay what is the similarity and the
- 1:39differences between the two
- 1:42okay the similarity is that both of them
- 1:46have no
- 1:48criminal liability
- 1:53as we mentioned
- 1:54a while ago
- 1:56justifying there is no criminal
- 1:58liability because
- 2:00the app is in accordance with loop
- 2:04so the app is though full
- 2:08in cream in uh
- 2:10accepting there is also no civil liberty
- 2:12no criminal ability
- 2:14but the reason is that is different from
- 2:17that of the justifying
- 2:20if in the justifying the esteem to be
- 2:22lawful and accepting the app is what
- 2:25um
- 2:26there is a crime but there is no
- 2:29criminal ability
- 2:33but there is no criminal liability
- 2:37there is no criminal liability because
- 2:40of the absence of the
- 2:44elements of voluntaries
- 2:48what's
- 2:58and
- 3:00intelligence and
- 3:02intent like freedom freedom is negated
- 3:06by
- 3:07irresistible force
- 3:09irresistible force
- 3:11is
- 3:12what
- 3:13okay uh is this an accepting
- 3:15circumstance
- 3:19if a crime is committed by invisible
- 3:22person
- 3:23or by it by an insane person
- 3:26or one which is committed by a minor who
- 3:29is less than 15 years of age
- 3:31or above 15 below 18 acting without
- 3:34deserving he lacks intelligence
- 3:37okay
- 3:41a 10 year old child who stabbed and
- 3:43killed this classmate
- 3:46who is also a 10 year old child
- 3:49okay is there a crime committed yes
- 3:53a classmate died
- 3:56is there a criminal ability no
- 3:59because they're
- 4:00up because of the absence of
- 4:02intelligence
- 4:07is ten years and below there is no
- 4:09criminal liability
- 4:11so
- 4:14justifying no criminal ability in
- 4:17accepting no criminal ability
- 4:20justifying because it is perfectly
- 4:22lawful or legal or in accordance with
- 4:25law
- 4:26in exempting no and there's a crime but
- 4:30there is no criminal ability because of
- 4:32the absence of qualitativeness
- 4:34okay and so far as civil liability
- 4:37this is where they differ
- 4:40in uh
- 4:45justifying there is also
- 4:48no
- 4:49civil
- 4:51liability
- 4:56talk about justifying no criminal as
- 4:59well as no
- 5:01cv liability
- 5:05is is this rule an absolute rule no
- 5:09there is an exception which is
- 5:11paragraph
- 5:14okay
- 5:15paragraph 4 speaks about avoidance of
- 5:18greater evil
- 5:21what about
- 5:22in exempting an exempting
- 5:26okay
- 5:27opposite to that of justifying there is
- 5:30civil
- 5:31liability
- 5:37usually when
- 5:38it's asked in the bar exam
- 5:41you differentiate between the two
- 5:43differentiate justifying from that of
- 5:45accepting circumstances
- 5:49so no criminal ability justifying no cv
- 5:53liability as well no criminal no civil
- 5:56liability except paragraph four
- 5:59in accepting no criminal ability however
- 6:02it differs in justifying inductor is
- 6:05single liability
- 6:07except
- 6:08paragraphs four
- 6:10and seven of what article 12.
- 6:15now due to paragraph four of article
- 6:22accepting
- 6:23there is availability except paragraph
- 6:26four and
- 6:27seven
- 6:30sports speaks about uh
- 6:32accident
- 6:35and seven speaks about prevented by some
- 6:38low full
- 6:39or what we call as insuperable cause
- 6:45this instance says there is no there are
- 6:48no cv liability
- 6:51but the general rule is that there is
- 6:53availability
- 6:55so this is how they differ both of them
- 7:00okay
- 7:04now let's go to the instances of
- 7:06justifying circumstances
- 7:10in the first instance the first two self
- 7:13defense
- 7:24uh
- 7:24the second instance under justifying is
- 7:28defense
- 7:30of a relative
- 7:34the third is defense of
- 7:40a stranger
- 7:44okay
- 7:47number one so far self defense is
- 7:49concerned
- 7:59you have a low full aggression
- 8:07which is also the first and the first
- 8:09element of defense of a relative and the
- 8:12fans of australia
- 8:16unlawful aggression there's no
- 8:18self-defense defense of a relative as
- 8:21well as defense of a stranger
- 8:23second there is a reason reasonable
- 8:27necessity of the means employee
- 8:30reasonable
- 8:32rnf necessity of the means employed to
- 8:36prevent or
- 8:38repel the same
- 8:42this is also the second element of
- 8:44defense of our relative and defense of
- 8:46this stranger
- 8:48third
- 8:51this is how they differ and so far as
- 8:53self-defense is concerned this is
- 8:55peculiar to it there is lack
- 8:58of so patient
- 9:03provocation
- 9:05on the part of the person defending
- 9:10himself
- 9:13lack of sufficient provocation on the
- 9:16part of the person defending
- 9:18himself
- 9:20okay
- 9:21defense of a relative
- 9:24defense of morality what is the third
- 9:26element
- 9:30case in case the provocation
- 9:33was given by the person attacked or the
- 9:36person being defended to
- 9:39the person
- 9:45the the person defending
- 10:17who is uh being defended too
- 10:20by the accused in case
- 10:22the provocation comes from him
- 10:25for as long as the accused who defended
- 10:27him have no part they're in then he can
- 10:31claim defense of a reality
- 10:34third
- 10:36defense of a stranger
- 10:39talk about defense of a stranger
- 10:42the third element they differ in the
- 10:44term in the third element
- 10:47okay uh he not he should not be induced
- 10:51by
- 10:53revenge
- 10:55resentment or evil okay
- 10:58okay i'm sure you memorize this already
- 11:01revenge
- 11:02resentment
- 11:04or evil voting
- 11:09so the on the third element they differ
- 11:11but on the first and the second
- 11:14they are perfectly the same
- 11:17but all you have to know is
- 11:19if sofas our defense of a relative is
- 11:22concerned
- 11:23you should know who are the relatives
- 11:26if it does not fall under this one
- 11:29it probably will be in the defense of
- 11:31stranger provided that all of the
- 11:34elements are present
- 11:35provided that he is not induced by
- 11:38revenge
- 11:39by revised resentment or
- 11:42he had other reasons why he
- 11:45seemingly defended the stranger
- 11:48but because there is already an existing
- 11:51match between him
- 11:53and the victim and he had his evil
- 11:56motive or resentment or it is an act of
- 11:59revenge
- 12:00uh which is the primary consideration
- 12:03why he defended the stranger
- 12:05then it is that applicable ticket that
- 12:07basis
- 12:10let's go on one by one on what is a low
- 12:13fuel
- 12:26okay
- 12:27you talk about unlawful aggression what
- 12:30does it mean
- 12:32uh basic
- 12:33uh principles in
- 12:36unlawful aggression is that number one
- 12:39it should not be induced by revenge
- 12:42uh
- 12:43it is
- 12:44cannot be based on suspicion and
- 12:47uh
- 12:48gut feel
- 12:49or conjectures
- 13:02it must be actually
- 13:06or imminent it cannot be based on
- 13:10surmises conjectures
- 13:13or suspicion
- 13:15it must be actual or imminent when you
- 13:17talk about the word imminent what does
- 13:19it mean it means that it is at the point
- 13:22of happening
- 13:23it is the point of happiness
- 13:26okay there is what
- 13:29very
- 13:31parent one's
- 13:33life
- 13:37limb
- 13:38or
- 13:39right
- 13:44a property coupled with also fair to us
- 13:46like when you talk about peril
- 13:49there is a
- 13:51danger
- 13:54or trap
- 13:57there is a danger or threat to one's
- 13:59life limb or right which is actual or
- 14:02even
- 14:04so if you're going to apply this
- 14:07self defense there is an actual threat
- 14:09towards life
- 14:11or lean or a strike
- 14:29danger or threat
- 14:31same goes with the defense of a relative
- 14:34there must be
- 14:36a
- 14:38threat and danger or peril to the life
- 14:41of the person you are defending
- 14:46young person defend
- 14:48who is allegedly
- 14:50uh
- 14:51defending
- 14:52a relative
- 14:54parent relative
- 14:56danger
- 15:02there is no
- 15:03uh defense of a reality
- 15:06why because there is no local aggression
- 15:09and so also goes through the defense of
- 15:11a stranger
- 15:17or dangerous
- 15:18life
- 15:19lean or right
- 15:22if there is none then forget about
- 15:25defense defense of a relative defense of
- 15:28a stranger defense of
- 15:30oneself
- 15:31okay
- 15:34when you talk about uh
- 15:36reasonable necessity of the means of
- 15:43what is the consideration
- 15:45consideration is that
- 15:49if there is
- 16:01[Music]
- 16:07that the action is disproportionate
- 16:09right
- 16:11again we we we
- 16:15we will ask if there is trail to do this
- 16:17thing to lifelink alright
- 16:20now uh does it also mean that just
- 16:23because a person is uh
- 16:26being attacked with a web with a knife
- 16:29or with a balisong as a weapon
- 16:32he can only defend himself by using a
- 16:35the same thing
- 16:37a knife or a ballison
- 16:40where he is we where he has already a
- 16:43gun tucked in his face
- 16:45to defend himself
- 16:48no but
- 16:49so if there is uh
- 16:52the test of reasonableness that's a
- 16:54reasonable well unless if it is the
- 16:56if the weapon is the only
- 17:01available means to defend oneself
- 17:15foreign
- 17:22this is only the available
- 17:25means to defend yourself at that
- 17:27particular time when there is peril to
- 17:29your life then by all means use it
- 17:33so that's the test of reasonableness
- 17:35that's the first one second one is if
- 17:38uh if the person has acted under
- 17:42the instinct of
- 17:43self-preservation
- 17:50if he acted under the instinct of
- 17:53self-preservation
- 17:55at that moment
- 17:57to defend himself like self defense no
- 18:00by all means use it
- 18:02but always do so okay
- 18:05you are not
- 18:06playing repetitions
- 18:11when you talk about lack of
- 18:13provocation the third element
- 18:16the
- 18:17lack of sufficient progression
- 18:23let's talk about sufficient propagation
- 18:31does it talk about provocation lack of
- 18:34promotion no
- 18:37it talks about lack of sufficient
- 18:40provocation
- 18:46examination when you
- 18:49and you always only indicated
- 18:51provocation that is wrong
- 18:54because there could be provocation the
- 18:56provocation is not sufficient okay
- 19:00when you talk about suffocation if it is
- 19:02proportionate
- 19:06proportionate or adequate
- 19:11and equate
- 19:12for one posterior its commission
- 19:14adequate to steer
- 19:17one
- 19:18to each commission
- 19:24that's the meaning of lack of sufficient
- 19:27propagation
- 19:32a person can still raise
- 19:35uh self-defense even if there's
- 19:36provocation yes
- 19:39okay so i will go to show you
- 19:42uh situations when
- 19:44one can raise still self defense okay
- 19:47maybe you can still raise self defense
- 19:51under the following condition even if
- 19:54there is provocation
- 19:58number one
- 20:00okay
- 20:02if there is provocation
- 20:06but it is not sufficient
- 20:11so person can still raise
- 20:14uh
- 20:16self-defense even if there's promotion
- 20:19first long as it is not
- 20:21sufficient provocation contemplated
- 20:23under the revised panel code
- 20:27or it is not adequate to steer one to
- 20:30its commission
- 20:31so
- 20:32still the accused may
- 20:35raise the same
- 20:38so
- 20:41number two
- 20:42even if there's sufficient provocation
- 20:46but if it's not
- 20:51if it comes from a stranger
- 20:54indian angal is a person
- 20:56claiming
- 20:59uh
- 21:00self defense
- 21:02and number three
- 21:04is
- 21:04final circumventing sufficient
- 21:06provocation
- 21:08coming from doctors even if there's
- 21:10official provocation
- 21:12from the accused
- 21:14for as long as if not
- 21:17immediately
- 21:20preceding
- 21:22react
- 21:23okay
- 21:24it is not immediately preceding the app
- 21:27we can claim still self
- 21:29difference
- 21:35so ergo
- 21:37okay as i mentioned a while ago
- 21:39a person can still claim
- 21:42self defense
- 21:46if
- 21:47uh when there is provocation on the
- 21:50following
- 21:51number one
- 21:54uh
- 21:55the progress provocation
- 21:58but not sufficient
- 22:02numbers secondly there is
- 22:04a sufficient provocation but it comes
- 22:07from a
- 22:09third person
- 22:11and number three if there is sufficient
- 22:14provocation coming from
- 22:17the uh
- 22:20person defending
- 22:23for as long as
- 22:26the accused of the person claiming
- 22:28self-defense
- 22:30for as long as it is not
- 22:33immediately receiving yeah okay
- 22:38not
- 22:39immediately
- 22:41like me being
- 22:43a
- 22:44app
- 22:49i know
- 22:50so where can you not trade self defense
- 22:52so here
- 22:55you cannot claim
- 22:57uh
- 22:58no claim
- 23:00of
- 23:02self
- 23:04defense
- 23:05under this following what we should
- 23:09if there is
- 23:11sufficient
- 23:13provocation
- 23:16from the accused
- 23:21which is immediately receiving the app
- 23:26immediately
- 23:29receiving
- 23:31the act
- 23:34notice
- 23:41immediately preceding the
- 23:44even if there's sufficient propagation
- 23:46that immediately preceding the app
- 23:52however no claim of self-defense if it
- 23:55is immediately
- 23:57proceeding
- 24:01but unsufficient provocation immediately
- 24:04preceding the app now no claim of
- 24:06self-defense
- 24:08if the provocation is not immediately
- 24:10perceiving the app there can be
- 24:12self-defense
- 24:14for example
- 24:31in a particular birthday party
- 24:35for no reason at all a slappy and we of
- 24:38course
- 24:39felt humiliated at that point
- 24:42but he did not want to
- 24:43make a revenge at that time because
- 24:45there's so many people around and you
- 24:47respect the
- 24:49the one who celebrated the first day
- 24:52so he planned on taking a refresh
- 24:55so on july 1 a month after
- 24:59a
- 25:00b
- 25:02uh
- 25:04made the plan to
- 25:05make a revenge
- 25:08on july 1 one month after the incident a
- 25:11intended
- 25:13stop a
- 25:16now
- 25:17fortunately for a he was able to parry
- 25:21the
- 25:21assault of b
- 25:23and to defend himself
- 25:26stop and kill me
- 25:30two incidents that happened
- 25:32june 1 and july 1.
- 25:34june 1
- 25:38but on july 1
- 25:40one month after it was b
- 25:43no who took a revenge and
- 25:45and tried to stop a
- 25:47fortunately for eight
- 25:49a was able to parry they uh blow and
- 25:52instead stop and kill b as an act of
- 25:55self-defense
- 25:58uninspired
- 26:00now he was prosecuted for the death of
- 26:04they claimed
- 26:06self-defense on his part
- 26:09is the argument uh raised by a
- 26:12proper or not
- 26:14okay assuming the two elements are
- 26:16present first there's a lawful attention
- 26:18letter to light one
- 26:20and a reasonable necessity because he
- 26:23had another instinct of
- 26:25self-preservation now the only thing to
- 26:27determine is the third element
- 26:31there is sufficient provocation on the
- 26:33part of a yes because of what happened
- 26:35on june 1.
- 26:37is it not immediately preceding the app
- 26:39or immediately preceding the app
- 26:42it is not immediately perceiving the app
- 26:45so therefore ergo he can claim still
- 26:48self-defense why it happened until what
- 26:51and uh
- 26:53there are two incidents june 1 and july
- 26:561.
- 26:57so the the sufficient provocation is not
- 27:00immediately preceding the app because
- 27:03the sufficient compensation happened a
- 27:05month ago
- 27:07now
- 27:08if it all happened on june 1
- 27:12a slap b
- 27:15so as an app of revenge be put alive
- 27:19and about to stop
- 27:22fortunately for a he was able to bury it
- 27:25and instead stop and kill me
- 27:29it all happened on children can a claim
- 27:31self-defense
- 27:33no
- 27:34no because there is official provocation
- 27:36on june 1. a of all of a sudden slapped
- 27:39b
- 27:41and the app of defending himself
- 27:43happened only just few minutes ago were
- 27:46it not for the slap of
- 27:48uh oh nothing made against me we would
- 27:51not have pulled up this time
- 27:54oh immediately
- 27:56so here
- 27:58there is one cannon claim self defense
- 28:29instead he'll be
- 28:31he cannot play

- 32:13then your antenna or aunts or uncles
- 32:16would be the third
- 32:17single degree
- 32:19and then the fourth she will degree is
- 32:21your first castle
- 32:23so up to that extent only
- 32:41i'll function the first question we will
- 32:43consider is this as a relative within
- 32:46the fifth degree right
- 32:49so it's nice that the the child of your
- 32:52first classic
- 32:54is not included among the enumerations
- 32:56anymore
- 32:58right
- 32:59so if you defended the child of your
- 33:02first casting it's not a real defense of
- 33:04a relative
- 33:05but it could be a defense of a stranger
- 33:09provided that he is not induced
- 33:11by revenge my resentment or evil will be
- 33:16okay
- 33:18an example let's just give an example of
- 33:21this
- 33:37defense of
- 33:39a relative
- 33:45say a
- 33:48to b1 at b2
- 33:59v2 waited for
- 34:01v1 we went to the uh
- 34:10so he went
- 34:11x
- 34:13and they had an altercation x and v y
- 34:17so they have an altercation and then
- 34:19they have it became a heated argument
- 34:21that
- 34:22you know uh b1
- 34:25no
- 34:26uh excessive one is a block by belter
- 34:30you actually mold x
- 34:33so what happened is that so b1 was on
- 34:35top of x
- 34:37x was lying helpless
- 34:40so hapless the shot and b1 continued to
- 34:43strike
- 34:45and steal
- 34:46box
- 35:01that
- 35:01he saw that v1 his mother was the one
- 35:05boxing x was already
- 35:07defenseless at that time
- 35:10so b2 because b1 was his brother went
- 35:14and stopped x which was
- 35:17a mortal wound
- 35:19on the part of x and he died
- 35:23prosecuted for the death of x and
- 35:25somebody b2
- 35:28it was a defense of a relative because i
- 35:30asop what my brother fighting
- 35:34question can he claim a defense of a
- 35:37relative
- 35:38no he cannot why
- 35:41because at the moment
- 35:43when he entered
- 35:47the premises
- 35:49and it's obi-wan and
- 35:52is there a threat
- 35:55a danger on the life of p1 at the time
- 35:58that he entered
- 36:00the scene
- 36:03now there is their peril to his life
- 36:06or right
- 36:08there's none right
- 36:09in fact may one should have stopped
- 36:11because x x which also was already
- 36:14defenseless at that time
- 36:17or if and
- 36:19um
- 36:20by doing so then you will become b2
- 36:23would would be
- 36:24a principal also
- 36:27for moling or injuring x
- 36:30because b one could only uh perform an
- 36:33object with one
- 36:35force to defend himself but since x was
- 36:38already
- 36:39a defenseless at that time he should
- 36:40have stopped
- 36:42so when b2 and 30 became also a
- 36:45principal
- 36:47it would have been different if it was x
- 36:50x
- 36:51who was on top boxing his
- 36:54brother v1
- 36:56and b1 was helpless at that time that
- 36:59people
- 37:00entered the picture
- 37:02and metoo
- 37:04stubbed and killed x
- 37:06then
- 37:07that will be
- 37:09uh a proper defense of a relative
- 37:15the potential there is parallel to one's
- 37:17life or leave of beyond
- 37:21yeah
- 37:22now
- 37:23even if it was b1
- 37:26though
- 37:27uh
- 37:29they had an altercation with x c b one
- 37:32uh
- 37:33uh
- 37:34that that
- 37:49x prime over v1 but when b2 entered the
- 37:52picture
- 37:53for as long as he saw that his brother
- 37:55was in danger
- 37:57then he can perfectly uh
- 37:59defend his brother although
- 38:01first law asked me to had no part 30
- 38:06and the same also goes with a stranger
- 38:10the same also goes with the stranger
- 38:13tandan is a stranger not induced by
- 38:17revenge resentment for people
- 38:20if he had other reasons
- 38:22to defend
- 38:23the stranger like he would want to take
- 38:26a revenge
- 38:29on the person
- 38:32that
- 38:33seemingly attack
- 38:35the stranger
- 38:37then he cannot
- 38:39and will not be able to waste the
- 38:41defense of
- 38:43strangers
- 38:44because he is induced by
- 38:47such revenge
- 38:50next
- 38:55let's go to uh defense i
- 38:58so let's
- 39:10okay
- 39:12so uh
- 39:14let's go to the accident what is an
- 39:17accent accident is when
- 39:19um
- 39:22i'm sorry avoidance of greater evil
- 39:24avoidance of greater evil
- 39:26when the evil sought to be avoided
- 39:29actually
- 39:32and um
- 40:00uh paragraph four speaks about
- 40:04avoidance of greater ego
- 40:08avoidance of later evil
- 40:12the evil thought to be avoided actually
- 40:15exists the evil must actually exist
- 40:19if the evil thought to be avoided is
- 40:21merely expected or anticipated or may
- 40:24happen
- 40:26in the future now then it's not
- 40:28applicable
- 40:30and the greater evil should not be
- 40:32brought about by the negligence or
- 40:35importance of the actor
- 40:38when the accused was not avoiding any
- 40:40evil
- 40:41he could not invoke
- 40:43the justifying circumstance of avoidance
- 40:46of a greater evil or injury
- 40:48the evil which brought about a greater
- 40:51injury must not be a result also
- 40:54from a violation of law
- 40:57by the actor
- 41:02see
- 41:03a was already
- 41:06a was uh on the point of
- 41:10annex
- 41:11[Music]
- 41:16boy
- 41:17g is engaged to be married
- 41:20a
- 41:23boy
- 41:25but on the night of their
- 41:28wedding
- 41:32she had the soul searching and the soul
- 41:35searching is that
- 41:37and um
- 41:38is
- 41:39uh whether he actually truly loves this
- 41:42guy
- 41:43oh my name see boy he spent for all the
- 41:46uh expenses
- 41:49of their marriage
- 41:51a church

- 42:05so comes the wedding day the following
- 42:07day
- 42:09g did not appear
- 42:11so b was really
- 42:13uh fuming mad
- 42:15and it felt humiliated and embarrassed
- 42:17before the presence of
- 42:19their uh guests and sponsors
- 42:26which is slander by team
- 42:42yeah
- 42:44so what is the evil shot to be avoided
- 42:47in this case
- 42:48the evil thought to be avoided in this
- 42:50case is
- 42:52going into a
- 42:54love how do you characterize that
- 42:56marriage
- 43:06so that is the evil thought to be
- 43:07avoided
- 43:09okay and it is perfectly uh a proper
- 43:12defense
- 43:14but will she incur criminal liability
- 43:16yes because under
- 43:18uh
- 43:19article 11 okay
- 43:21paragraph four avoidance of twitter evil
- 43:24this is the only instance where there is
- 43:27actually a civil liability
- 43:32number five is fulfillment
- 43:34of duty or lawful exercise of one's life

- 45:18or in the lawful exercise of a right or
- 45:21office that's number five number six is
- 45:24any person who asks
- 45:26in obedience to an order issued by a
- 45:29superior
- 45:36um there is a uh something a lawful
- 45:40exercise of life or office
- 45:44so um what is this doctrine of self-help
- 45:49uh
- 45:49the doctrinal salvation southwest under
- 45:52article
- 45:53429 of the civil code
- 45:57the owner or local processor of a thing
- 46:00has the right to exclude any person
- 46:04from the
- 46:05enjoyment and disposal

- 46:11force as maybe reasonably necessary to
- 46:14repel or prevent an alcohol or
- 46:16threatened unlawful physical infection
- 46:19so
- 46:20i improper teemo somebody invaded that
- 46:22no mass of some real property you can
- 46:25defend
- 46:26you can use a reasonable force to defend
- 46:29your property that's a doctrine of
- 46:31self-help
- 46:33what about lawful exercise of
- 46:36right
- 46:37it is not necessary that there be a
- 46:39lawful aggression
- 46:41against the person charged with the
- 46:43protection of the property
- 46:46if there is a lawful aggression against
- 46:49the person
- 46:50not charged with the property
- 46:52protection and property then i
- 47:08number six obedience to an order issued
- 47:11for some lawful purpose
- 47:15what are the requisites the patent
- 47:18lawful order no full means
- 47:21so number one
- 47:23of course term accepting obedience to an
- 47:26order
- 47:27issued for some lawful purpose so
- 47:29therefore there should be an order
- 47:32an order
- 47:34issued by sophia that's number one
- 47:37number two is that the order must be for
- 47:40some
- 47:41lawful purpose
- 47:43number three is that the means used by
- 47:45the subordinate to carry outside order
- 47:48is
- 47:49low full
- 47:50so lawful
- 47:52purpose
- 47:53flowful means no
- 47:56but the person who gives the order and
- 47:58the person who executed it must be
- 48:01acting
- 48:02within the limits of the lord
- 48:07perfectly lawful or perfectly illegal
- 48:19the soldiers were
- 48:22ordered to
- 48:24secure building one and building two
- 48:27now they were able to secure building
- 48:29one
- 48:32and um they had some prisoners of war
- 48:36who surrendered to them surrendered
- 48:40the weapons no
- 48:42but their assignment is also to go to
- 48:46building two to secure the same
- 48:49so what must uh they do
- 48:52hey what was what must we do to these
- 48:55prisoners of war
- 48:57i said that we have to secure building
- 48:59two
- 49:00so they they uh
- 49:02the
- 49:03the
- 49:04lieutenant order
- 49:06is a sergeant to kill all the prisoners
- 49:09of war
- 49:11because there will be a burden to
- 49:13secure building building
- 49:17now prosecuted for the death of their
- 49:19prisoners
- 49:21the assay sergeant
- 49:23claimed
- 49:26obedience to a
- 49:29lawful order
- 49:30question
- 49:32okay is that proper or not depending on
- 49:36the answer is no
- 49:38why because the order is
- 49:41unknown full
- 49:43why do you say it's unknown food because
- 49:45every soldiers no they know
- 49:48that killing
- 49:49if their prison is not justifiable under
- 49:53any circumstance
- 49:55now well unjustified
- 50:07and this is guaranteed under the geneva
- 50:09convention for the philippines of course
- 50:12recognizes
- 50:14that same and is given
- 50:16a signatory to it
- 50:21now
- 50:22ergo
- 50:24so therefore
- 50:25and in this case gazette
- 50:27it is patently a lawful so if it is
- 50:29unpatently unlawful and the subordinates
- 50:33still followed the order then you cannot
- 50:35claim
- 50:36a
- 50:37uh this last paragraph as a defense as a
- 50:42justified circumstance
- 50:45so also
- 50:46ergo
- 50:47if the order is unlawful but it is not
- 50:50patently unknown full
- 50:54that can still that person can claim
- 50:57uh
- 50:58this justifying circumstance of lawful
- 51:01orders
- 51:06there's a military operation
- 51:09of course your duties
- 51:13to obey you don't have to think
- 51:15no foo every time
- 51:17or not
- 51:21now if it is not patently unlawful still
- 51:24can claim uh
- 51:26this one
- 51:28obedience to a lawful order
- 51:31now if it is patent you know very
- 51:33glaring and lawfully
- 51:40okay
- 51:41okay let's go to accepting circumstances
- 51:46as i mentioned in accepting
- 51:47circumstances
- 51:49there is a crime but there is no
- 51:52uh criminal
- 51:54liability
- 51:58let me check if i have the total
- 52:00permission here
- 52:12okay
- 52:13a circumstances which exempt from
- 52:15criminal ability
- 52:18the following are exempt from criminal
- 52:20liability
- 52:21an immission or insane person
- 52:25an invisible or
- 52:27a person in insanity
- 52:30unless the latter had acted to the
- 52:33elusive interval
- 52:35uh first question how do you distinguish
- 52:38investigate from insanity
- 52:42distinguished
- 52:45or insane unless the latter had happened
- 52:48during
- 52:49lucid turbine
- 52:51so invisibility is always accepting okay
- 52:55uh imbecilly an invisible person is
- 52:58exempt in all
- 53:00cases
- 53:02from criminal liability
- 53:05an imbecile is one one uh who while in
- 53:08advance
- 53:10in age has a mental development
- 53:12comparable to that
- 53:15of children between how many years two
- 53:18years old two seven years of age some
- 53:21young mental development comparables are
- 53:23two to seven years of age
- 53:26one about insanity is insanity always
- 53:28accepting no
- 53:30no
- 53:31because in some
- 53:33insane person is not so example if it
- 53:35can be shown that he acted
- 53:38during a
- 53:39lucid interval when
- 53:54insane uh person acts with intelligence
- 53:59and when you say absent intelligence so
- 54:03uh same chat that's no myth
- 54:08what is the uh
- 54:11presumption
- 54:12of presumption of insanity
- 54:15or presumption of in of sanity
- 54:18all persons are presumed as what sane or
- 54:21insane
- 54:25okay the presumption is of sanity
- 54:29the presumption is that all persons are
- 54:32sane
- 54:34of course the presumption limits of
- 54:35perception which can be rebutted no
- 54:38so
- 54:39when a person was insane at the time of
- 54:42the permission of the felony
- 54:45he is exempt from criminal ability
- 54:49when he was saying at the time of the
- 54:51commission
- 54:52of the crime
- 54:55but he became
- 54:56insane at the time of trial what is the
- 54:59consequence
- 55:01he's criminally liable but
- 55:03no
- 55:04uh
- 55:06nagging incention during the trial then
- 55:08the trial will be suspended for the
- 55:10moment
- 55:12until he regains his
- 55:14sanity
- 55:17so
- 55:18evidence of insanity the evidence of
- 55:21sanity must refer to the time preceding
- 55:24the app
- 55:25under prosecution or to the very moment
- 55:29of the execution of
- 55:36if he is insane at that time then he's
- 55:39accepted
- 55:41if he was acting on during
- 55:44lucid interval at the time that he
- 55:46executed or committed the crime then he
- 55:48is liable
- 55:50if he became only insane at the time of
- 55:53trial then the trial will be suspended
- 56:02let's go to
- 56:04uh
- 56:08a person and uh
- 56:10yeah under nine years of age
- 56:14uh this is of course you know this
- 56:15already that because this was already
- 56:18i mean that by juvenile justice and
- 56:21welfare
- 56:23if the age of the child
- 56:30what is is is minority
- 56:33an accepting circumstance it depends
- 56:37if the age of the child is
- 56:50if the child age of the child is 15 or
- 56:55below
- 56:58so this is total or absolute
- 57:02irresponsibility
- 57:08meaning to say there is no
- 57:11criminal liability if the age is 15 or
- 57:15below
- 57:17exactly
- 57:20you don't even have to distinguish
- 57:22whether he acted with or without
- 57:25first long as you can show
- 57:27the child's birth certificate and you
- 57:29can prove that p is 15 or below then
- 57:32total exception
- 57:35second if the age of the child is above
- 57:39and you talk about about 15 that's 15
- 57:42years old or below
- 57:44above 15 and below 18
- 57:47okay
- 57:49you will have to distinguish whether he
- 57:51acted with
- 57:53without discernment
- 57:58or with
- 58:00the sermon
- 58:04if you acted without this sermon that is
- 58:07also accepting
- 58:12but if he acted with this disturbance
- 58:15it's no longer accepting and later you
- 58:17will know when uh we're discussing
- 58:20mitigating circumstance that
- 58:22it is a privilege mitigating
- 58:24circumstance
- 58:36or below total
- 58:38exemption
- 58:39above 15 below 18 for as long as you can
- 58:42show
- 58:43that that use is uh
- 58:45conducted without discernment then he is
- 58:48not
- 58:49criminally liable
- 58:50but he acted with this servant it's not
- 58:53an exempting circumstance this becomes
- 58:55what a privilege
- 58:58mitigating circumstance
- 59:10yeah i hope everything
- 59:11is right
- 59:19okay
- 59:20number four any person who acted
- 59:26who while performing a lawful app with
- 59:29no care causes injury
- 59:32by mere accident without fault or
- 59:36uh
- 59:37intention of causing it this is again
- 59:39a circumstance uh
- 59:42together with uh paragraph seven
- 59:45when there is no civil liability so
- 59:48elements and generating elements a
- 59:50person is performing
- 59:52a lawful act
- 59:53secondly that he acted with no care
- 59:56thirdly he causes an injury to another
- 59:59by mere accident importantly it is
- 1:00:02without
- 1:00:04fault or intention
- 1:00:06of causing it
- 1:00:08so what is an accident an accident is
- 1:00:10something that happens
- 1:00:12outside
- 1:00:13this way of our will
- 1:00:17and although it comes about through some
- 1:00:20up of our will
- 1:00:22it lies beyond the bounds of humanly
- 1:00:25foreseeable consequences
- 1:00:28so if the consequences are
- 1:00:30plainly foreseeable it will be
- 1:00:32deadly yes a case of that yes
- 1:00:35but if it lies beyond the bounds of
- 1:00:38humanly foreseeable the
- 1:00:41things no consequences then it is an
- 1:00:43accident
- 1:00:45number five
- 1:00:47any person who acts under the compulsion
- 1:00:50of an irresistible force
- 1:00:52elements
- 1:00:53okay
- 1:00:55when you talk about irresistible force
- 1:00:58that force is what there is a physical
- 1:01:01force
- 1:01:02number one elements the number one the
- 1:01:05compulsion is by means of a physical
- 1:01:08force
- 1:01:09second and that physical force must be
- 1:01:12irresistible
- 1:01:13third and that physical force must
- 1:01:17come from a third person
- 1:01:23like your head butt in your head what's
- 1:01:26up with the firearm
- 1:01:31you bury this guy otherwise
- 1:01:34this physical force i'm being exerted in
- 1:01:36your
- 1:01:51so will we be criminally reliable no
- 1:01:53because now there is an irresistible
- 1:01:56force
- 1:01:58the butt of the gun
- 1:02:01being uh used to hit he said
- 1:02:04unless he uh
- 1:02:08uh with an order to order that
- 1:02:12the body of a particular crucial
- 1:02:15so there is there is a physical force
- 1:02:17being exerted
- 1:02:20usually when this is us you compare
- 1:02:23paragraphs five to six
- 1:02:25paragraphs pipe again it speaks about
- 1:02:28irresistible force
- 1:02:29a physical force
- 1:02:32but paragraph six speaks about when a
- 1:02:34person who acts under the impulse of an
- 1:02:36uncontrollable fear
- 1:02:39of an equal or greater injury
- 1:02:43so what uh are the elements of uh
- 1:02:46number six
- 1:02:49number one
- 1:02:50the threat which causes the fear is of a
- 1:02:52greater than
- 1:02:56which causes the fear is of an evil
- 1:02:59greater than or at least equal to
- 1:03:02that which is
- 1:03:04required
- 1:03:06that in which
- 1:03:07he is required to commit
- 1:03:10second that it promised an evil of such
- 1:03:13gravity and evidence that the ordinary
- 1:03:16man
- 1:03:17would have suffered to get
- 1:03:19the basis of duress
- 1:03:22duress as a valid defense should be
- 1:03:24based on real
- 1:03:26imminent or reasonable fear for one's
- 1:03:28life or live
- 1:03:30it should not be again based on remote
- 1:03:33fear or speculative fear or
- 1:03:36possible
- 1:03:38fear
- 1:03:41so uh in irresistible force the offender
- 1:03:43uses violence or physical force
- 1:03:47but here
- 1:03:48in a controllable fear the offender
- 1:03:51employs intimidation or trapped in
- 1:03:54compelling another telegraph
- 1:04:07which is irresistible this is the one
- 1:04:26so that's the threat of being of
- 1:04:28equality it's the life of this person
- 1:04:32where he is commanded to
- 1:04:33uh commit that crime to kill that person
- 1:04:36and
- 1:04:37also the life of his daughter
- 1:04:41it can be equal or greater injury then
- 1:04:44this is not a plot will not apply
- 1:04:50otherwise
- 1:04:51i will fail you in your criminal law
- 1:04:54review class
- 1:04:57so equal
- 1:04:59but it's between the life menu
- 1:05:04and
- 1:05:05compared with that of just a person is
- 1:05:08just about to fail
- 1:05:11he's creating a lot of you glass
- 1:05:13so it's not happening
- 1:05:15the segment the seven is when prevented
- 1:05:17by some
- 1:05:19lawful or insufferable costs
- 1:05:25so give me the requisites
- 1:05:28what are the requisites of lawful or
- 1:05:30inseparable outcomes
- 1:05:32number one
- 1:05:33that they act is required by law to be
- 1:05:36done
- 1:05:38there is a law that requires the
- 1:05:39performance of a particular act
- 1:05:42second is that a person fails to perform
- 1:05:45such a
- 1:05:47and third that is failure to perform
- 1:05:49such a was done
- 1:05:52due to some
- 1:05:53lawful or insufferable clause
- 1:05:59um
- 1:06:04a person is uh
- 1:06:08there is a crime committed in the
- 1:06:10presence of
- 1:06:12a police officer
- 1:06:16and
- 1:06:18this happened in the remote area
- 1:06:22mountains
- 1:06:43this is
- 1:06:57um
- 1:07:01a comedian a crime in the presence of a
- 1:07:04police officer
- 1:07:07so what is the obligation of the police
- 1:07:09officer
- 1:07:11breaking down
- 1:07:19against hey
- 1:07:21so this is our srs and under the
- 1:07:24law
- 1:07:26yes uh the duty to file a case to
- 1:07:29deliver the case of the proper judicial
- 1:07:31authority
- 1:07:3412 18 and 36
- 1:07:4012 for light felonies
- 1:07:43again for correctional
- 1:07:46and 36 for
- 1:07:49three
- 1:07:51affected
- 1:08:02uh
- 1:08:04he only
- 1:08:05has 12 hours
- 1:08:07to file a case against
- 1:08:11this aim
- 1:08:12and there's no means of trust
- 1:08:14transportation to go down let's say
- 1:08:17police officer
- 1:08:18so they have to go down
- 1:08:21and just to adjust the police station a
- 1:08:23lobby national 14 arms
- 1:08:26and then another
- 1:08:28uh
- 1:08:29what are
- 1:08:3015 cars
- 1:08:32exceeded delicious uh
- 1:08:34well
- 1:08:35so ordinarily he is liable for arbitrary
- 1:08:38detention
- 1:08:40but because he is prevented by some
- 1:08:42lawful or inseparable cause as this one
- 1:08:46but there is no means of transportation
- 1:08:48going down and spain is controlled
- 1:08:50there's no negligence
- 1:08:52and even formed on his part then uh
- 1:08:55this is as a justifying circumstance
- 1:09:02okay
- 1:09:04okay let's go to mitigating
- 1:09:05circumstances
- 1:09:07yeah
- 1:09:09mitigate me
- 1:09:14and
- 1:09:17let's compare this with activated
- 1:09:22mitigating
- 1:09:24uh circumstances if present would uh
- 1:09:28lessen the penalty
- 1:09:30without any aggravating
- 1:09:33circumstances
- 1:09:35in aggregating if uh present without any
- 1:09:37mitigating then the penalty will be
- 1:09:40in uh
- 1:09:41increase to
- 1:09:43its maximum
- 1:09:46there are two uh
- 1:09:48uh kinds of mitigating symbols
- 1:09:53which are number one ordinarily
- 1:09:58and secondly it's a privilege
- 1:10:05in aggravating
- 1:10:07there is
- 1:10:09generic
- 1:10:11thing second we have
- 1:10:28number
- 1:10:42special um
- 1:10:44complex right sorry the penalty in
- 1:10:46complex one is the same
- 1:10:48for the most serious primer seem to be
- 1:10:50imposing its maximum failure so it
- 1:10:52cannot be observed
- 1:10:54okay mitigating ordinary privilege
- 1:10:58meeting ordinary if present without any
- 1:11:01aggravating then the penalty will be
- 1:11:03reduced to its million
- 1:11:05period as a general rule
- 1:11:08meaning
- 1:11:12if present will reduction of
- 1:11:16uh
- 1:11:17by one or two
- 1:11:18degrees
- 1:11:20lower
- 1:11:24so a privilege
- 1:11:25meaning to say when you talk about uh
- 1:11:27privilege mitigating you talk about
- 1:11:30lowering it by 80 degree
- 1:11:33and ordinary if present
- 1:11:36you reduce it to apru
- 1:11:43periods
- 1:11:45this is not applicable to
- 1:11:47penalties which do not have a preview
- 1:11:50like what death
- 1:11:57so they don't have
- 1:11:59they do not have a period why because
- 1:12:02they are deemed to be
- 1:12:04indivisible penalties
- 1:12:07you talk about indivisible penalties
- 1:12:09volatile minimum medium and maximum
- 1:12:11period
- 1:12:12so when you talk about periods a
- 1:12:14reduction into its minimum period
- 1:12:17we talk about a case where it is
- 1:12:20applicable to divisible
- 1:12:23like
- 1:12:24reclusion
- 1:12:26temporal
- 1:12:2712 years
- 1:12:29one day to 20 years
- 1:12:32okay
- 1:12:35you divide it into three equally you
- 1:12:38have the medium
- 1:12:41and
- 1:12:42you have at the left is the minimum at
- 1:12:44the right we have capacity
- 1:12:46period
- 1:12:49so the horizontal pertains the period
- 1:12:54now ordinary mitigating it applies to a
- 1:12:57divisible penalty it's not applied when
- 1:12:59the penalty is death and reclusion
- 1:13:01perpetua
- 1:13:02when it's a privilege mitigating it
- 1:13:05applies to both
- 1:13:07uh divisible or indivisible penalties so
- 1:13:10if the penalty is a reclusion perpetua
- 1:13:14and a person is acting
- 1:13:16a minor 17 years of age acting with
- 1:13:19discernment
- 1:13:20then the penalty will be reduced by one
- 1:13:22degree so from recreation perpetua you
- 1:13:25have the culture
- 1:13:29okay
- 1:13:31so
- 1:13:33be able to identify
- 1:13:35what are the mitigating circumstances
- 1:13:38be able to identify what are the
- 1:13:41aggravating circumstances
- 1:13:43so the memories will add
- 1:13:58huh
- 1:14:12on a
- 1:14:14before a person in authority or an agent
- 1:14:17of a person in authority
- 1:14:20so it's a private person
- 1:14:23although he surrendered it's that
- 1:14:24voluntary it's not mitigating
- 1:14:26circumstances
- 1:14:31and once you identify the same as a
- 1:14:34mitigation
- 1:14:36you will also have to look whether it's
- 1:14:38an ordinary or privileged
- 1:14:40mitigating the same manner that
- 1:14:44in article 14 once you see
- 1:14:46an aggravating circumstance you do that
- 1:14:48obsessed
- 1:14:51uh automatically because
- 1:14:53the ones that we use for the under the
- 1:14:56rule of upsetting remember this
- 1:15:01is an ordinary mitigating us against a
- 1:15:05generic aggravating
- 1:15:16what if it is an inherent one
- 1:15:19no what if it is an element of the crime
- 1:15:22what if it's a qualifying and repeating
- 1:15:28chinese wizard
- 1:15:29homicide
- 1:15:31with a generic aggravating circumstance
- 1:15:33of murder that's wrong
- 1:15:35because the crime is now murdered it
- 1:15:38becomes
- 1:15:39what treachery becomes a
- 1:15:41qualifying circumstance
- 1:15:54there's an abuse of a public authority
- 1:15:58generic aggravating
- 1:16:01no in the crime of conversation
- 1:16:03it's not a generic aggravating it's
- 1:16:06inherent
- 1:16:07you cannot
- 1:16:08a public position engineering in the
- 1:16:11frame of conversation
- 1:16:13why it because the person who committed
- 1:16:15it is an accountable public officer
- 1:16:33regardless of the number of the
- 1:16:36mitigating or uh ordinary mitigating
- 1:16:40so as early as now
- 1:16:42i am already reminding you this case
- 1:16:48and aggravating circumstances
- 1:16:51you will not be able to answer a a a a
- 1:16:55question on indeterminate sentence
- 1:16:58law
- 1:16:59questions if you're not familiar or if
- 1:17:02you have not memorized what are the
- 1:17:04mitigating activating
- 1:17:10a person has acted under irresistible
- 1:17:13force
- 1:17:22irresistible force is what kind of
- 1:17:24circumstance
- 1:17:26it is an accepting circumstance
- 1:17:41admission of guilt
- 1:17:55um
- 1:18:09is a
- 1:18:10admission of guilt before the prosecutor
- 1:18:14no in the conduct of preliminary
- 1:18:16investigation
- 1:18:18or mitigating circumstance no because it
- 1:18:21must be
- 1:18:22done where
- 1:18:24in open court no before the prior to the
- 1:18:28presentation of the prosecution's
- 1:18:29evidence but it should be done in an
- 1:18:32open court and not before an admin body
- 1:18:35so what does it tell you
- 1:18:37it only goes to show that
- 1:18:39not only that you should be able to
- 1:18:41memorize but you should be able to know
- 1:18:42the elements as well
- 1:18:45and after knowing that identifying that
- 1:18:47it's a mitigating circumstance then
- 1:18:50uh you have to classify it whether it's
- 1:18:52an
- 1:19:06and you're unable to
- 1:19:09simply
- 1:19:10just
- 1:19:12identify what are those ordinary
- 1:19:14mitigating circle sensors
- 1:19:20let's go to uh
- 1:19:24mitigate mitigating
- 1:19:30the following are mitigating
- 1:19:31circumstances
- 1:19:34okay when all the elements necessary to
- 1:19:36justify the app
- 1:19:39uh
- 1:19:41or to exempt from criminal ability are
- 1:19:44not attacked
- 1:19:45so let's go for example
- 1:19:50on
- 1:19:52this one
- 1:19:55all the elvis stresses are not
- 1:19:58except what is the rule okay
- 1:20:01so
- 1:20:02the
- 1:20:03self-defense
- 1:20:07url low for the direction
- 1:20:10reasonable necessity of the means to
- 1:20:12prevent or repel the same third is lack
- 1:20:14of sufficient prolongation
- 1:20:17okay uh
- 1:20:20assuming
- 1:20:23assuming that the ones who are
- 1:20:25present
- 1:20:27is unlocked a lawful aggression
- 1:20:36then what is the consequence this is
- 1:20:39an ordinary mutated
- 1:20:47if a local aggression is present
- 1:20:49the second and the third are not present
- 1:20:52then
- 1:20:52ordinarily
- 1:20:55if a lawful aggression is present
- 1:20:58vision bullet says it is present the
- 1:21:00third one is not present
- 1:21:02then it's a privilege to begin
- 1:21:07it's not simply
- 1:21:08a mitigating but it's a privilege
- 1:21:11if a lawful aggression is present
- 1:21:15second is not present law of sufficient
- 1:21:18provocation is present
- 1:21:20in other words the first and the third
- 1:21:21elements are present it's a privilege
- 1:21:24mitigating service
- 1:21:27okay
- 1:21:28if a no unknown follow glacier is
- 1:21:31present
- 1:21:32but two entries are present then
- 1:21:35it has to vary because why because a
- 1:21:37lawful aggression is an indispensable
- 1:21:40requisite
- 1:21:48okay
- 1:21:49now if these three are present
- 1:21:52then it's no longer a mitigating
- 1:21:54circumstance
- 1:21:56it's
- 1:21:57actually a justifying circumstance of
- 1:21:59self-defense if all the elements are
- 1:22:01present
- 1:22:04but
- 1:22:06if the majority are present then
- 1:22:10it's uh
- 1:22:11it's a privilege with the gates
- 1:22:15okay
- 1:22:31okay
- 1:22:35um
- 1:22:40let's go to
- 1:22:42kanina's age of a child which is uh
- 1:22:46above 15 below 18 happening with dessert
- 1:22:50which is
- 1:22:54if the age of the child is above 15
- 1:22:56and below 18 then you will have to
- 1:22:58distinguish whether you acted with or
- 1:23:00without the survey
- 1:23:02if you acted without discernment then
- 1:23:05it's an accepting circumstance if i
- 1:23:07acted
- 1:23:08with discernment then it is not an exam
- 1:23:10thing but it is a
- 1:23:12privilege mitigating
- 1:23:14uh
- 1:23:16circumstance
- 1:23:18so when you talk about the concept of uh
- 1:23:21acting with discernment what does it
- 1:23:23mean
- 1:23:24acting with disturbance simply means
- 1:23:26that whether the person
- 1:23:29uh
- 1:23:31know the consequences of islam he knows
- 1:23:34what is right and what is wrong
- 1:23:40then he acted with this survey in one
- 1:23:42case
- 1:23:43supreme court
- 1:23:45is when you
- 1:23:47waited for the parents of the victim to
- 1:23:50come out of their house and then when
- 1:23:52they when they left the house then
- 1:23:54that's the time that they committed the
- 1:23:56crime then
- 1:23:57it only shows that
- 1:23:58the child had acted with the servant and
- 1:24:01so therefore he is criminally reliable
- 1:24:03although it constitutes us
- 1:24:05as a privilege
- 1:24:08mitigating circumstance
- 1:24:10okay
- 1:24:14uh there's also in complete justifying
- 1:24:16circumstance the man of performance of
- 1:24:18duty
- 1:24:21uh
- 1:24:22there are two deposits that must be
- 1:24:24present in order that
- 1:24:26uh
- 1:24:27circumstance under article 11 number
- 1:24:29five may be taken as a justifying
- 1:24:32one china
- 1:24:34that you acted in the performance of a
- 1:24:36duty
- 1:24:37or in the lawful exercise of fright or
- 1:24:39official
- 1:24:41uh talk to themselves
- 1:24:43and then
- 1:24:44the second is the injury
- 1:24:46cause or offense committed
- 1:24:50be the necessary consequence of the new
- 1:24:53performance of the duty or the global
- 1:24:55exercise of this right
- 1:25:07as a
- 1:25:09mitigating circumstance
- 1:25:16against one
- 1:25:19okay third is
- 1:25:21that sufficient
- 1:25:23and then a provocation or earthling
- 1:25:27or
- 1:25:32that offender
- 1:25:35third paragraph that offender had no
- 1:25:37intention to commit seoul
- 1:25:42so the circumstance can be taken into
- 1:25:44account only when the facts
- 1:25:46proven
- 1:25:47show that there is a notable and evident
- 1:25:50disproportion
- 1:25:52between the means employed to execute
- 1:25:56the criminal act and its consequences
- 1:25:59of course when we talk about uh
- 1:26:01intention
- 1:26:03uh
- 1:26:04it is
- 1:26:05an internal state of intention and it
- 1:26:08can be
- 1:26:09judged only by
- 1:26:11the
- 1:26:12manifestation of the external apps
- 1:26:15so the intention as an internal app is
- 1:26:18judged not only with the proportion of
- 1:26:20the means employed by him
- 1:26:22so the evil produced by his app but also
- 1:26:25by the fact that tableau was or was not
- 1:26:28a
- 1:26:29at a vital
- 1:26:31part of the body
- 1:26:34number three the number four what is
- 1:26:36provocation
- 1:26:41that sufficient provocation or threat
- 1:26:45on the part of the offended party
- 1:26:46immediately proceeding yeah so what are
- 1:26:49the requisites
- 1:26:52uh playful and if it's a video
- 1:26:53provocation
- 1:26:55it is understood
- 1:26:57any
- 1:26:58unjust or improper panda unjust or
- 1:27:01improper conduct or an act of the
- 1:27:04offended party
- 1:27:05capable of exciting
- 1:27:08inciting or irritating anyone
- 1:27:12so provocation
- 1:27:14that the provocation must be sufficient
- 1:27:17that it was originated from the offended
- 1:27:19party
- 1:27:20and the third that
- 1:27:22provocation must be immediate
- 1:27:25to the commission of the client by the
- 1:27:27person who is proposed
- 1:27:45with no apparent reason
- 1:27:47slap b and b pull down a ballista and
- 1:27:50stab a okay
- 1:27:52so he is criminally liable
- 1:27:55but
- 1:27:57he can uh claim sufficient provocation
- 1:28:01as a matter of privilege of mitigating
- 1:28:04circumstances
- 1:28:05so there was a
- 1:28:07sufficient provocations in impulsion
- 1:28:09second it originated from
- 1:28:11the offended party
- 1:28:15and that the provocation must be
- 1:28:17immediate
- 1:28:21i mean happened
- 1:28:23just before
- 1:28:24uh
- 1:28:26yeah
- 1:28:28after he was immediately
- 1:28:30slapped in his face
- 1:28:35number four immediately uh
- 1:28:40immediate vindication
- 1:28:42immediate authentication
- 1:28:47um
- 1:28:50there must
- 1:28:52there must be an immediate investigation
- 1:28:54of a grave offense
- 1:28:56to the one committing the felony
- 1:28:59his spouse ascendants descendants
- 1:29:01legitimate natural or adopted brothers
- 1:29:03or sisters
- 1:29:04or relatives by affinity within the same
- 1:29:08degrees so how do you compare usually
- 1:29:12how do you compare
- 1:29:13four and five
- 1:29:15but let us give first the requisites of
- 1:29:18immediate vindication
- 1:29:22you don't know my grape offense so there
- 1:29:24must be a green offense
- 1:29:26performed or done to the one either to
- 1:29:28the one committing the felony or his
- 1:29:31relatives
- 1:29:32who are his spouse against senators
- 1:29:35and etc
- 1:29:37notice under this uh immediate
- 1:29:40indication
- 1:29:41it limits the relatives only by affinity
- 1:29:44within the same degree so what are
- 1:29:47relatives by constantinity within the
- 1:29:50fourth say will degree
- 1:29:51in the listeners a self-defense launcher
- 1:29:54and apply
- 1:29:56okay second requisite is that the felony
- 1:29:59is committed in with the investigation
- 1:30:01of such great effects
- 1:30:04so uh a lapse of time is allowed
- 1:30:08between the vindication
- 1:30:11and the doing of the grave effects
- 1:30:13so between the grave offense and the
- 1:30:15immediate vindication there could be a
- 1:30:17grip
- 1:30:18there could be a lapse of time
- 1:30:21so how do you compare immediate
- 1:30:23vindication from uh sufficient
- 1:30:26provocation
- 1:30:27in the case of provocation it is made
- 1:30:30directly only to the person committing
- 1:30:32the felony
- 1:30:37vindication
- 1:30:39very clear the engraved offense may be
- 1:30:41committed against the offender's
- 1:30:43relatives that only agrees himself
- 1:30:46but also against its relatives
- 1:30:49you know enumeration relatives are not
- 1:30:51included
- 1:30:52in uh
- 1:30:54sufficient provocation
- 1:30:57okay
- 1:30:59and of course there is as i mentioned
- 1:31:02there it must be a grave offense to the
- 1:31:04offender
- 1:31:06or to his relatives
- 1:31:09now that rape offense kelangan bayern
- 1:31:12should it be a felony no not necessarily
- 1:31:16that the great offense did not
- 1:31:18necessarily be a a crime
- 1:31:23so our
- 1:31:25important
- 1:31:26distinction is that
- 1:31:28the sufficient provocation or threat
- 1:31:30immediately preceded the app
- 1:31:32meaning to say that there is no interval
- 1:31:34of time between the provocation and the
- 1:31:37commission of the crime
- 1:31:39in while in immediate vindication there
- 1:31:41is proximity time or lapse of time or
- 1:31:45interval of time
- 1:31:47between those agreed offense at young's
- 1:31:51commission of the crime
- 1:31:56so
- 1:32:07when the insult was made again as i
- 1:32:10mentioned it does not necessarily
- 1:32:13and that that one great offense is a
- 1:32:15failure
- 1:32:16insult but insult that's that will be uh
- 1:32:21considered as a great offense in one
- 1:32:23case
- 1:32:45it was considered
- 1:32:47this case
- 1:32:49as a great offense and so therefore
- 1:32:52chicken a bill of immediate
- 1:32:55authentication as a mitigating
- 1:32:57circumstance
- 1:33:00number six
- 1:33:02number section five
- 1:33:04passion and obfuscation
- 1:33:07fashion and obfuscation
- 1:33:09the the person
- 1:33:11having acted upon an impulse so powerful
- 1:33:14as naturally to have produced passion in
- 1:33:16the frustration
- 1:33:18so this paragraph requires that number
- 1:33:20one that use acted under an impulse
- 1:33:24number two the impulse must be so
- 1:33:26powerful as
- 1:33:28that
- 1:33:29it naturally produces passion or obesity
- 1:33:34so requisites there must be an app both
- 1:33:37unlawful and sufficient to produ to
- 1:33:40produce such a condition of mind
- 1:33:44and that set up which produced the past
- 1:33:47the obfuscation was not far removed
- 1:33:50from the commission of the crime by a
- 1:33:53considerable length of time
- 1:33:56during which the perfect perpetrator
- 1:33:58might recover his
- 1:34:01normal equanimity
- 1:34:04so meaning to say
- 1:34:07no passion of escalation after 24 hours
- 1:34:10no
- 1:34:11uh the defense must prove that the act
- 1:34:13which produced passion or forcation took
- 1:34:15place
- 1:34:16at a time not far removed from the
- 1:34:18commission of the pride
- 1:34:21and it must be the result of a sudden
- 1:34:24impulse of natural uncontrollable fury
- 1:34:29legends
- 1:34:58it must arise from a lawful sentiment
- 1:35:01it must arise from a long sentence
- 1:35:25foreign
- 1:35:40as a
- 1:35:42passion of a special
- 1:35:44a question can you raise that
- 1:35:46no you cannot because it must arise from
- 1:35:49my life
- 1:36:07how do you
- 1:36:08distinguish passion obfuscation from
- 1:36:10irresistible force
- 1:36:19accepting a passion
- 1:36:21is a mitigating circumstance
- 1:36:24an irresistible force young accepting
- 1:36:31compassionate false creation cannot give
- 1:36:33rise to an irresistible force because a
- 1:36:35irresistible force requires a physical
- 1:36:38force
- 1:36:40and passion of stern fashion infusion is
- 1:36:43in the offender himself
- 1:36:44young irresistible force must come from
- 1:36:47a third person
- 1:36:49okay
- 1:36:50and passion of frustration mice arise
- 1:36:52from lawful sentiments whereas
- 1:36:55irresistible force is
- 1:36:57unknowful
- 1:37:01number six offender had voluntarily
- 1:37:03surrendered to a person in an authority
- 1:37:06or agent or confession of guilt before
- 1:37:10the court
- 1:37:12okay let's go to uh
- 1:37:14voluntary surrender
- 1:37:16number one the offender had not been
- 1:37:18actually
- 1:37:24secondly
- 1:37:25he must be a
- 1:37:27surrender we must surrender to a person
- 1:37:30in authority or
- 1:37:32to the latter's agent or to the agent of
- 1:37:35a person in authority
- 1:37:37that the surrender must be voluntary
- 1:37:42in authority is one directly invested
- 1:37:44with jurisdiction
- 1:37:46and agents of a person in authority are
- 1:37:49those uh
- 1:37:50charged with the maintenance of public
- 1:37:52order or protection and security
- 1:37:55of life and property
- 1:38:00oxygen having
- 1:38:06to submit himself unconditionally to the
- 1:38:09authorities
- 1:38:13and the purpose is to of course to
- 1:38:16save
- 1:38:18the trouble and expenses
- 1:38:21necessary necessarily included in his
- 1:38:24search and culture
- 1:38:29it will not actually save trouble and
- 1:38:30expense
- 1:38:32on the part of the government this then
- 1:38:34this will not be considered
- 1:38:38voluntary confession of guilt
- 1:38:40spontaneous and confession of guilt
- 1:38:42again as i mentioned before secondly the
- 1:38:45confession of guilt was made in open
- 1:38:47court
- 1:38:48that is before the competent court that
- 1:38:51is trying the case
- 1:38:53and that the confession third mass of
- 1:38:56git was paid prior to
- 1:38:59the presentation of the evidence for the
- 1:39:01prosecution
- 1:39:02angle if the plea of guilt is made on
- 1:39:05appeal then it is not mitigating
- 1:39:09is the plea of guilt as i mentioned
- 1:39:11earlier and the preliminary
- 1:39:12investigation is not only of guilt at
- 1:39:15all
- 1:39:16okay
- 1:39:20what about extra judicial confession the
- 1:39:22extrajudicial conference confession made
- 1:39:25by docus is not voluntary confession
- 1:39:28as contemplated in nervous penalty
- 1:39:31because that confession was made outside
- 1:39:33of the world
- 1:39:35again as i mentioned a confession of
- 1:39:37guilt must be made in
- 1:39:39open court
- 1:39:48let's go to physical defect
- 1:39:51left down blind
- 1:39:58physical defect must restrict his means
- 1:40:00of action defense or communication
- 1:40:05big physical defect referred to in this
- 1:40:07paragraph is
- 1:40:10is such as being armless or crippled or
- 1:40:15which restricts his
- 1:40:17actions defense or communication
- 1:40:21whereby his means to act defend himself
- 1:40:23or communicate
- 1:40:25with his fellow beings are limited
- 1:40:30but this physical defect is not
- 1:40:32mitigating in the crime of rape
- 1:40:35or times against chastity
- 1:40:37or in atlanta or in glance against
- 1:40:39property
- 1:40:42illness
- 1:40:45such illness
- 1:40:48of the offender as would diminish the
- 1:40:50exercise of his willpower
- 1:40:53without however depriving him of his
- 1:40:56consciousness of his app
- 1:40:58okay
- 1:40:59so the elements is that the illness of
- 1:41:01the offender must diminish
- 1:41:04the exercise of his willpower
- 1:41:06but it should not deprive the offender
- 1:41:08of the consciousness of his acts why
- 1:41:11because if he is deprived of the
- 1:41:13consciousness
- 1:41:14of his acts then that is already an
- 1:41:17acceptance an accepting circumstance
- 1:41:20when the offender completely lost the
- 1:41:22exercise of his willpower
- 1:41:26it is deemed as an exempting
- 1:41:28circumstances
- 1:41:32then the last one
- 1:41:35uh
- 1:41:36analogous circumstances
- 1:41:39finally any other circumstance of a
- 1:41:42similar nature and analogous to those
- 1:41:44above match
- 1:41:46so
- 1:41:48over 60 years old
- 1:41:50with failing sight
- 1:41:52similar to over 70 years of age
- 1:41:55mentioned in paragraph 2
- 1:41:57article 13.
- 1:41:58okay
- 1:42:23also a a person who killed his debtor
- 1:42:25who tried to escape and refuse to pay
- 1:42:27his debt
- 1:42:29is entitled to this mitigating
- 1:42:31circumstance
- 1:42:32similar to that of passion and
- 1:42:34association
- 1:42:36or impulse of jealousy
- 1:42:38of
- 1:42:39of jealous
- 1:42:40feelings similar to that of passion and
- 1:42:44obesity
- 1:42:49okay
- 1:42:52voluntary restitution of stolen property
- 1:42:56may be deemed
- 1:42:58similar to that or analogous to that of
- 1:43:01voluntary surrender mentioned in
- 1:43:03paragraph 7.
- 1:43:06extreme poverty and necessity similar to
- 1:43:09incomplete justified justification based
- 1:43:12on
- 1:43:13state of necessity
- 1:43:20the condition of running amok is not
- 1:43:24mitigating
- 1:43:27okay
- 1:43:29so yeah
