Facts:
On 15 July 15, respondent entered into an agreement with
petitioner designating him as administrator of the lot but did
not comply with the terms of the agreement when he failed to
till the vacant areas. Thus, Zaldivar terminated his services
and ejected him. When Salmorin refused, Zaldivar filed a
complaint for unlawful detainer in the MCTC (CC: 229-H). In
his Answer, Salmorin alleged the existence of a tenancy
relationship thus, the case was an agrarian matter over which
the MCTC had no jurisdiction.
Issue:
Whether or not MCTC has no jurisdiction over the subject
matter.
Ruling:
Since the MCTC has jurisdiction over Civil Case No. 229-H,
we will refrain from discussing the right of Zaldivar to possess
Lot No. 7481-H as it is more correctly the subject of the
appropriate action in the trial court.
