Unlawful Detainer

In Cabrera

v.

Getaruela,

the

Court

held

that a

complaint

sufficiently alleges a cause of action for unlawful detainer if it


recites the following:
(1) initially, possession of property by the defendant was by
contract with or by tolerance of the plaintiff;
(2) eventually, such possession became illegal upon notice by
plaintiff to defendant of the termination of the latters
right of possession;
(3) thereafter, the defendant remained in possession of the
property and deprived the plaintiff of the enjoyment
thereof; and
(4) within one year from the last demand on defendant to
vacate the property, the plaintiff instituted the complaint
for ejectment (Ruben C. Copuz, rep. by Atty.-in-fact
Wenifreda C. AgullanaVs. Sps. Hilarion Agustin and
Justa Agustin, G.R. No. 183822. January 18, 2012).
