    MANIFESTATION with
    MOTION FOR RESETTING
    Comes now, ACCUSED DONNALOU PADA Y REYES, by and
    through undersigned counsel, unto this Honorable Court, most
    respectfully aver that:

    1. After the last hearing held on March 1, 2019, Accused herein


    conferred with private complainant to try and settle matters
    amicably for after all, they are blood relatives. Thereafter,
    Accused had been exerting efforts to reach out to private
    complainant and profess her sincere remorse and willingness to
    rebuild their relationship as close relatives;

    2. Fortunately, private complainant herself expressed her


    willingness to accept the heartfelt apology of the Accused and to
    eventually reach a settlement that is just for this case;

    3. However, with profound regret, the undersigned counsel cannot


    make it on the hearing scheduled on March 27, 2019 due to the
    fact that on the same day, the undersigned is going to travel by
    land from Iloilo to Dumaguete to be able to join the MCLE which
    is set on the 28th to the 29th. Regrettably, the undersigned can no
    longer defer undergoing MCLE because as a new lawyer
    admitted to the BAR on June 4, 2018, the undersigned is required
    to complete 12 units of MCLE before April 2019;

    be reset to April 05, 2019 or on any date that is convenient to the
    calendar of the court;

    5. This motion is submitted in utmost good faith and not intended


    to delay the proceedings of the instant case.

    PRAYER

    WHEREFORE, premises considered, it is most respectfully


    prayed unto the Honorable Court to reset the March 27, 2019

    calendar of the Honorable Court.
