Rights ng ama sa anak nya kahit hindi kasal sa nanay ng bata.

[icebreaker27]

mga ka-PT, ask ko lang sana kung anong mga karapatan ng ama sa anak nya kung hindi naman sila kasal ng nanay ng bata tapos hiwalay na sila.. may way ba na mapunta sa custody ng ama yung anak nila?
Thanks po sa sasagot..

The Statement should be, ano ang obligasyon ng ama sa kanyan anak.

Dahil sa hindi sila kasal at the time of the birth of the Child, matatawag ang bata na Illegitimate Child under REPUBLIC ACT NO. 8533 (Art. 165. Children conceived and born outside a valid marriage are illegitimate, unless otherwise provided in this Code.)

Legitimate and illegitimate children shall have the right to receive financial support from their parents (Article 195, Family Code of the Philippines). But unlike a legitimate child who is automatically entitled to support, an illegitimate child’s right to support shall only arise if he was recognized by his father as his illegitimate child.

So, an illegitimate child recognized by his Father is entitled to Support.

Art. 194. Support comprises everything indispensable for sustenance, dwelling, clothing, medical attendance, education and transportation, in keeping with the financial capacity of the family.

The education of the person entitled to be supported referred to in the preceding paragraph shall include his schooling or training for some profession, trade or vocation, even beyond the age of majority. Transportation shall include expenses in going to and from school, or to and from place of work. (290a)

Illegitimate child also have the right to use the surname of his father (Section 1, RA 9255), and the right to inherit from him through succession (Article 887, Civil Code of the Philippines).

salamat po sir habagat..isa pa po sana,my paraan po ba na mapunta sa tatay ang custody sa bata?

[chillout]

The Family Code provides that:

"Art. 176. Illegitimate children shall use the surname and shall be under the parental authority of their mother, and shall be entitled to support in conformity with this Code. The legitime of each illegitimate child shall consist of one-half of the legitime of a legitimate child. Except for this modification, all other provisions in the Civil Code governing successional rights shall remain in force.

Art. 213. In case of separation of the parents, parental authority shall be exercised by the parent designated by the Court. The Court shall take into account all relevant considerations, especially the choice of the child over seven years of age, unless the parent chosen is unfit."

However, in a case, the Supreme Court held that:

"Only the most compelling of reasons, such as the mother’s unfitness to exercise sole parental authority, shall justify her deprivation of parental authority and the award of custody to someone else. In the past, the following grounds have been considered ample justification to deprive a mother of custody and parental authority: neglect or abandonment, unemployment, immorality, habitual drunkenness, drug addiction, maltreatment of the child, insanity, and affliction with a communicable disease."

Stated shortly, a mother will lose the parental authority over the child if the stated grounds are proven. The court will always have the welfare and the best interest of the minor as controlling interest in making decision as to the custody, care and control of the child.

to make things easier to understand....ganito ang sagot ay wala. kung hindi kasal ibig sabihin illegitimate yung bata.
para mag karoon ng karapatan yung ama? dapat irecognize nya muna yung bata. yan unang step bago natin pag usapan ang mga exemption sa ibang batas.
please lets explain the law yung punto na maiintindihan ng mga layman.

[Habagat12]

Sir Memento Mori, respect na lang po natin ang mga contribution na sagot ng mga ka PT natin. Siguro naman eh hindi naman ganun kahirap intindihin ang mga naunang sagot sa tanong ni Sir icebreaker 27. Nagkaiba lang sa pag atake sa tanong pero ang punto ay pareho at madali din namang intindihin. Mas magandang mag cite din ng legal basis when answering a query para naman may reference din.

More power sa lahat at peace mga ka PT!

If they are not married, under no obligation ang ama na makipagbalikan  sa ina ng kanyang anak. But if they are married then ibang usapan na yan kasi may legal contract na and they are bound to follow and observe that "Special Contract".

Ako naman kasal ang mga magulang ko. But when the time came na nag split ang parents ko, I was left with my grandmother na ermat ng mom ko. Yung mom ko nag abroad at dahil nag split na sila ni erpat ay hindi na siya umuwi, nagtago na dun kumbaga.

Yung erpat ko sinubukan akong kunin sa lola ko dahil siya naman nga daw ang ama at siya ang dapat na mag alaga sakin. Hindi pumayag ang lola ko kaya nauwi sa mga bangayan and eventually sa korte ang naging paghahatol about sa custody. I was only 5 years old then nga pala.

Ang siste during that time ay unemployed si erpat and ang grounds for their split up ni ermat ay dahil sa drug addiction. Lola ko naman business woman. The case was settled in a private room instead of the court room dahil medyo sensitive ang kaso. The judge favored my grandmother for custody and was assigned as my legal guardian. Erpat ko was only given visitation rights, once a week only.
