Mrs. S borrowed P20,000.00 from PG. She and her 19-year-old son, Mario, signed the promissory note for the loan, which note did not say anything about the capacity of the signers. Mrs. S made partial payments little by little. After several years, she died leaving a balance of P10,000.00 on the note. PG demanded payment from Mario who refused to pay. When sued for the amount, Mario raised the defense that when he signed the note he was still a minor. Should the defense be sustained? Why?

- Your client was the beneficiary of an annuity contract purchased by her stepmother. When the stepmother died, the insurance company paid the client $400,000 and sent her a Form 1099 indicating that the taxable portion (i.e., the amount in excess of the investment in the contract) was $50,000. However, according to the client, her father fraudulently convinced her that he was the intended beneficiary.
