The document provides information about land titling processes in the Philippines. It discusses that land titles can be acquired either through judicial proceedings by filing for registration in court, or administrative proceedings by applying for a patent from the DENR. It outlines different types of patents (homestead, free, miscellaneous sales) that can be obtained to acquire titles to public lands, and describes the basic steps and requirements involved in each process.
The document discusses and compares the Deed and Torrens systems of land registration.
[1] The Deed system involved exhaustive searches of title documents back to the original Crown grant, which was complex, expensive and uncertain. [2] The Torrens system introduced in Malaysia simplified conveyancing by making registration of titles and dealings compulsory, with the register providing conclusive evidence of ownership. Key principles are the mirror and curtain principles. [3] The objectives were to provide certainty, security of title and facilitate transfer compared to the defects of the Deed system.
This document discusses land titling in the Philippines. It begins by outlining the basic principles of land ownership, distinguishing between public domain lands owned by the state and private domain lands disposed of by the state. It then describes the sources of private land titles, including direct grants from the state like free patents, homestead patents, and sales patents. It also discusses indirect grants through judicial decrees. The document provides statistics on patents and decrees issued from 2009-2013. It outlines the government agencies involved in land titling and their roles. Finally, it discusses efforts to increase titling of residential lands and how titles can be used as collateral to access credit.
The document outlines the process for residential free patent applications in the Philippines, which involves lot identification, verification of the applicant's claim, field verification, and records verification. It describes the steps in detail, including establishing parcel boundaries, verifying occupancy and ownership, ensuring land qualifications, and multiple reviews. Residential free patents are available for residential lands up to certain area limits depending on location, and have qualifications for Filipino citizenship and long-term occupancy.

This document discusses the procedure for acquiring state land under the National Land Code (NLC) of Malaysia. It summarizes a court case where an applicant paid the land revenue amount 8 months after the specified deadline in the notice. A third party challenged the alienation, arguing the approval had lapsed. However, the court held that the state authority accepting late payment implied a fresh approval. The decision showed that paying land revenue within the deadline is not mandatory under NLC, and the registration of title is the primary consideration in establishing ownership of the land.
A man can acquire land through various means such as inheritance, sale, will, mortgage, etc. When land changes ownership, the new owner must apply for mutation to update the land records. Mutation involves inserting the new owner's name in the record-of-rights (khatiyan). Registration transfers ownership legally, while mutation updates the government land records. Mutation is required for both agricultural and non-agricultural land, though failure to mutate does not affect title for non-agricultural land. The legal basis for mutation is found in the State Acquisition and Tenancy Act of 1950.
The document discusses the key features and concepts of a Registrar's Caveat (RC) under Malaysian law. It explains that an RC is entered by the Registrar to protect land from fraudulent or improper dealings. The Registrar has discretion to enter an RC when necessary to prevent fraud, protect government interests, or rectify errors. An RC prevents dealings on the land but does not affect prior registered interests. The document outlines the procedures for entering, duration of, and removing an RC through the Registrar or courts.
The document discusses two acts related to protecting judges - the Judicial Officers' Protection Act of 1850 and the Judges (Protection) Act of 1985. The 1850 act provides that judges and others acting judicially cannot be sued for official acts done in good faith. It also protects those executing court orders. The 1985 act provides additional protection for judges, establishing that no court can entertain civil or criminal cases against a person for acts done in their official judicial capacity, except as allowed by other government authorities. Both acts aim to protect judges in the discharge of their judicial duties.

A Land Acquisition and Licensing For Property Development In IndonesiaLeks&Co
This document provides an overview of land rights and land registration in Indonesia. It discusses the main types of land rights including ownership rights, cultivation rights, building rights, use rights, and management rights. It also describes land registration objects and the land registration system. The legal basis for land rights and registration are the Basic Agrarian Law and related government regulations on cultivation rights, building rights, use rights, and land registration.
Alienation refers to the act of transferring possession of state land from the state authority to another person or body. Under the National Land Code 1965, the state authority can alienate land for up to 99 years by granting ownership rights, subject to payment of land revenue. The key effects of alienated land include the proprietor obtaining a title to the land and secured rights to develop and invest in the land for a long period. However, the proprietor must adhere to any express or implied conditions relating to the permitted land use. Overall, alienation allows the state to dispose of land while providing proprietors certain benefits and long-term security over the land.
The document discusses four cases related to temporary occupation licenses (TOL) under Malaysian land law:
1) Mohamed v Kunji Mohidin - A holder of a TOL to pluck coconuts was awarded damages after another licensee cut down trees on the land.
2) Julaika Bivi v Mydin - A TOL holder can bring an ejectment action against a trespasser occupying part of a house on the licensed land.
3) Hee Cheng v Krishnan - An attempted sale of rights under a TOL was deemed unlawful under the Contracts Ordinance.
4) Paruvathy d/o Murugiah v Krishnan - The principle
1) The document discusses the nature and scope of a Registrar's Caveat under Section 320(1) of the National Land Code, which allows the Registrar to enter a caveat on land to protect against fraud or improper dealings or to protect certain interests.
2) It outlines the Registrar's powers to enter a caveat and the circumstances under which a caveat can be entered. An aggrieved party can appeal the Registrar's decision or apply to have the caveat removed.
3) The effect of a caveat is to prevent dealings on the disputed land. A caveat does not have an expiration date and continues until cancelled by the Registrar either on their
The acquisition of certain area at ayodhya act, 1993Leo Lukose
This document summarizes the Acquisition of Certain Area at Ayodhya Act, 1993 which was enacted by the Parliament of India. The key points are:
1) The Act provides for the acquisition of the area in Ayodhya including the disputed site of the Babri Masjid-Ram Janmabhoomi by the central government due to a long standing religious dispute over the site that affected public order.
2) It transfers the rights, title and interest in relation to the acquired area to the central government and allows the government to manage the property.
3) The Act establishes provisions for paying compensation to owners of acquired land and properties and appointing a Claims Commissioner to determine claims regarding compensation
Adverse possession occurs when a trespasser possesses land for a statutory period without the landowner taking action to remove them. Under the Limitation Act 1980, unregistered land can be acquired through adverse possession after 12 years. For registered land, the 2002 regime requires the squatter to possess for 10 years before applying to be registered as the owner. If the original owner does not respond within 65 days and the squatter can show possession was not by consent, the squatter will gain legal ownership of the land. The key requirements for adverse possession are actual possession, intention to possess, and the statutory time period.
The document provides an overview of key Indian land acquisition acts:
1) The Land Acquisition Act of 1894 allows the government to acquire private land for public purposes, paying compensation based on market value. It remains the primary legislation on land acquisition.
2) The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act of 2013 reformed the 1894 act by strengthening consent clauses, introducing SIA and R&R.
3) Key sections of the 1894 act outlined include provisions for land surveys, notifications, hearings and Collector awards on compensation within deadlines.
A copy of the lawsuit filed Sept. 15, 2011 by landowner and resident of the Township of Middlefield (Otsego County, NY) Jennifer Huntington against the township seeking to overturn Middlefield's recent ban on gas drilling. Huntington claims it violates New York State law which reserves the right to regulate oil and gas drilling in the state.
The document discusses the concepts of immediate indefeasibility and deferred indefeasibility under Section 340 of the National Land Code (NLC) of Malaysia. It summarizes several key court cases that have interpreted Section 340 differently, coming to conflicting conclusions on whether it provides for immediate or deferred indefeasibility. The most recent Federal Court case in 2010, Tan Ying Hong v Tan Sian Sang, applied the concept of deferred indefeasibility and declined to follow the earlier 2001 Federal Court decision in Boonsom Boonyanit v Adorna Properties, which had established the precedent of immediate indefeasibility.
The document provides an overview of the process of alienating state land in Malaysia. It begins by defining alienation as conveying or giving away the right and title to a piece of state land. It then outlines the main steps in the alienation process, which include applying for the land, approval and payment of land revenue, surveying, and preparing and registering the title. It discusses important concepts like qualified and final titles, as well as the effects of registering the title, which makes it conclusive evidence of ownership and gives the proprietor indefeasible rights over the land.
This document summarizes the procedures for alienation, assignment, and transfer of state government lands in India. It outlines the following key points:
1) Alienation of land means granting state land for public purposes to individuals/organizations on payment of market value or concession. Applications must follow the prescribed form and procedures in relevant orders.
2) Assignment of land means granting unused waste or poramboke lands to landless individuals, with priority given to landless agricultural laborers. The Mandal Revenue Officer can assign up to 2.5 acres of wetland or 5 acres of dryland.
3) State lands can be transferred between government departments by the Collector, or to central departments, up to 0.

Legal scrutiny relating to title of the landWeOwn.in
This document outlines 8 key legal documents and considerations when scrutinizing the title of a property in India:
1) Documents showing the chain of ownership such as sale deeds or gifts.
2) Urban Land Ceiling clearance if the property is in an urban area and exceeds certain size limits.
3) Property records like Form 2 and 7/12 extract showing owner names and property details.
4) Index II document from the Sub-Registrar mentioning past buyers and sellers.
5) Title search report from a lawyer examining ownership records for the last 13 years.

1. Accretion is the process by which soil is gradually deposited along river banks, increasing the land area. For accretion to occur, the deposit must be gradual and imperceptible and caused by the river current. The owner of the adjacent land gains ownership of the accreted land.
2. Avulsion is the sudden removal of land by water. If the detached land remains identifiable, ownership is not changed. The owner must remove the land within 2 years.
3. Under the Torrens system, titles are presumed valid and indefeasible against claims not annotated on the title. However, ownership can still be disputed and registration does not necessarily prove ownership.

L'indice de performance des ports à conteneurs de l'année 2023SPATPortToamasina
Une évaluation comparable de la performance basée sur le temps d'escale des navires
L'objectif de l'ICPP est d'identifier les domaines d'amélioration qui peuvent en fin de compte bénéficier à toutes les parties concernées, des compagnies maritimes aux gouvernements nationaux en passant par les consommateurs. Il est conçu pour servir de point de référence aux principaux acteurs de l'économie mondiale, notamment les autorités et les opérateurs portuaires, les gouvernements nationaux, les organisations supranationales, les agences de développement, les divers intérêts maritimes et d'autres acteurs publics et privés du commerce, de la logistique et des services de la chaîne d'approvisionnement.
Le développement de l'ICPP repose sur le temps total passé par les porte-conteneurs dans les ports, de la manière expliquée dans les sections suivantes du rapport, et comme dans les itérations précédentes de l'ICPP. Cette quatrième itération utilise des données pour l'année civile complète 2023. Elle poursuit le changement introduit l'année dernière en n'incluant que les ports qui ont eu un minimum de 24 escales valides au cours de la période de 12 mois de l'étude. Le nombre de ports inclus dans l'ICPP 2023 est de 405.
Comme dans les éditions précédentes de l'ICPP, la production du classement fait appel à deux approches méthodologiques différentes : une approche administrative, ou technique, une méthodologie pragmatique reflétant les connaissances et le jugement des experts ; et une approche statistique, utilisant l'analyse factorielle (AF), ou plus précisément la factorisation matricielle. L'utilisation de ces deux approches vise à garantir que le classement des performances des ports à conteneurs reflète le plus fidèlement possible les performances réelles des ports, tout en étant statistiquement robuste.

Update as of 7 Feb 2017 6:11 AM: Read this blog below of Atty. Laserna. Though this is quite
long but it's worth reading it.
TITLING OF LANDS:
For purposes of legal research of foreign readers visiting this blog, on the subject of the legal
system involving the titling of public lands in the Philippines, may I share some basic readings
thereon as published in the website of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources
(www.lmb.denr.gov.ph). I have also added a relevant 1999 Supreme Court decision on the same
subject matter.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How can one acquire TITLE?
For original registration, when no title has yet been issued over a parcel
of land, it can be acquired either by:
1. Judicial proceedings - by filing petition for registration in Court.
2. Administrative proceedings - filing an appropriate application for
patent (e.g. homestead) in the Administrative body (DENR) and
registration of this patent becomes the basis for issuance of the
Original Certificate of Title by the Register of Deeds.
What are the main classification of lands as to ownership?
1. Private properties - those which are titled.
2. Public lands - those which have not been titled as
well as those public dominion or outside the commerce
of man such as road, public plaza and rivers.
What are Public Lands?
All Lands that are not acquired by private person or corporation, either by grant or purchase are
public lands. The common understanding therefore, is that all lands which have no title or not
registered to private individual are public land. These are
grouped into:
1. Alienable or disposable (A & D Lands) - those that can be acquired or issued title. Our
constitution provides that only agricultural lands can be disposed of to private citizens.
2. Non-alienable lands - includes timber or forest lands, mineral lands, national parks. No title
can be issued over any portion within this area.
What are the modes of disposition or how can one acquire title over A&D lands? The modes are:
1. by Homestead Patent
2. by Sales Patent
3. by Lease
4. By Free Patent or Administrative legalization
2. What are the evidence or proof of ownership over a parcel of land?
The best evidence of ownership is the certificate of title duly issued by the Register of Deeds
concerned. However, in the absence of a title, tax
declaration coupled by actual possession and existence of improvement also substantiate claim
for ownership.
What is a TITLE?
A title refers to the legal right to own a property and the certificate of title is the document which
confers such right of ownership to an individual, association or corporation.
How can one acquire TITLE?
For original registration, when no title has yet been issued over a parcel of land, it can be
acquired either by:
1. Judicial proceedings - by filing petition for registration in Court.
2. Administrative proceedings - filing an appropriate application for patent (e.g. homestead) in
the Administrative body (DENR) and registration of this patent becomes the basis for issuance of
the Original Certificate of Title by the Register of Deeds.
In subsequent registration of Title, what are necessary to effect the same?
Transfer of title is effected by executing a document such as deed of sale wherein the registered
owner (seller) transfer the ownership to a buyer. The capital gains tax and other taxes must be
paid before clearance can be secured from the BIR. This will be submitted to the Register of
Deeds concerned, together with the title which will be surrendered for issuance of a new title in
the name of the buyer.
Subsequent registration of title is a function and jurisdiction of the Register of Deeds under the
LRA as the land involved is already a private property outside the jurisdiction of the DENR.
In case the registered owner dies, how can ownership be transferred to the heirs?
When a registered owner died without leaving a last will and testament, the heirs can transfer the
title to themselves by executing an extra-judicial settlement of the estate, on condition that the
heirs are in agreement of how to
dispose the properties. If there is conflict and heirs can not agree, they should
bring a case before the court which will make a decision for them.
Is possession the same as ownership? Who are informal settlers??
No. Possession means actual and exclusive control of property by physical occupation and this
could be in good faith or in bad faith. On the other hand, ownership implies the legal right of
possession, control and enjoyment by the owner who has established evidence that he owns the
property.
Informal settlers are those in possession of land without the benefit of a title and without consent
of the owner. Their possession is not permanent and has no legal basis for occupation. The
possessor must strive to acquire title to the land before his possession can become permanent.
In cases where there are conflicting claims, who shall have a better right?
In cases where both claimants have no title, there are many factors to consider
like actual possession. The one who occupies the land especially in good faith has
better right as against someone with doubtful documents or has recently acquired
rights without knowledge of the one in possession. However, all factors must be
fully evaluated to determine preferential rights....
FREE PATENT
