the evidence is offered, and the latter fails to produce it after reasonable notice;
(c)When the original consists of numerous accounts or other documents which cannot

DOCUMENTS: RULES ON ELECTRONIC EVIDENCE
Art. 789. When there is an imperfect description, or when no person or property exactly answers
the description, mistakes and omissions must be corrected, if the error appears from the context
of the will or from extrinsic evidence, excluding the oral declarations of the testator as to his
intention; and when an uncertainty arises upon the face of the will, as to the application of any of
its provisions, the testator's intention is to be ascertained from the words of the will, taking into
consideration the circumstances under which it was made, excluding such oral declarations. (n)
(1) Those entered into in the name of another person by one who has been given no authority or
legal representation, or who has acted beyond his powers;
(2) Those that do not comply with the Statute of Frauds as set forth in this number. In the
following cases an agreement hereafter made shall be unenforceable by action, unless the same,
or some note or memorandum, thereof, be in writing, and subscribed by the party charged, or by
his agent; evidence, therefore, of the agreement cannot be received without the writing, or a
secondary evidence of its contents:
(d) An agreement for the sale of goods, chattels or things in action, at a price not less than five
hundred pesos, unless the buyer accept and receive part of such goods and chattels, or the
evidences, or some of them, of such things in action or pay at the time some part of the purchase
money; but when a sale is made by auction and entry is made by the auctioneer in his sales
book, at the time of the sale, of the amount and kind of property sold, terms of sale, price, names
of the purchasers and person on whose account the sale is made, it is a sufficient memorandum;
(e) An agreement of the leasing for a longer period than one year, or for the sale of real property
or of an interest therein;
RULE 130 Sec. 10 . Interpretation of a writingaccording to its legal meaning. The
language of a writing is to be interpreted according to the legal meaning it bears in the
place of its execution, unless the parties intended otherwise. (8)
CHAPTER 5 INTERPRETATION OF CONTRACTS
Art. 1370. If the terms of a contract are clear and leave no doubt upon the intention of the
If the words appear to be contrary to the evident intention of the parties, the latter shall prevail
over the former. (1281)
subsequent acts shall be principally considered. (1282)
comprehend things that are distinct and cases that are different from those upon which the
parties intended to agree. (1283)
understood as bearing that import which is most adequate to render it effectual. (1284)
Art. 1374. The various stipulations of a contract shall be interpreted together, attributing to the
doubtful ones that sense which may result from all of them taken jointly. (1285)
Art. 1375. Words which may have different significations shall be understood in that which is
most in keeping with the nature and object of the contract. (1286)
Art. 1376. The usage or custom of the place shall be borne in mind in the interpretation of the
ambiguities of a contract, and shall fill the omission of stipulations which are ordinarily
established. (1287)
Art. 1377. The interpretation of obscure words or stipulations in a contract shall not favor the
party who caused the obscurity. (1288)
Art. 1378. When it is absolutely impossible to settle doubts by the rules established in the
preceding articles, and the doubts refer to incidental circumstances of a gratuitous contract, the
least transmission of rights and interests shall prevail. If the contract is onerous, the doubt shall
be settled in favor of the greatest reciprocity of interests.
If the doubts are cast upon the principal object of the contract in such a way that it cannot be
known what may have been the intention or will of the parties, the contract shall be null and void.
Art. 1379. The principles of interpretation stated in Rule 123 of the Rules of Court shall likewise be
observed in the construction of contracts. (n)
RULE 130 SECTION 11
Sec. 11 . Instrument construed so as to give effect to all provisions. In the
construction of an instrument, where there are several provisions or particulars, such a
construction is, if possible, to be adopted as will give effect to all. (9)
Art. 791. The words of a will are to receive an interpretation which will give to every expression
some effect, rather than one which will render any of the expressions inoperative; and of two
modes of interpreting a will, that is to be preferred which will prevent intestacy. (n)
RULE 130 SECTION 12:
Sec. 12 . Interpretation according to intention; general and particular provisions. In
the construction of an instrument, the intention of the parties is to be pursued; and
when a general and a particular provision are inconsistent, the latter is paramount to
the former. So a particular intent will control a general one that is inconsistent with it.
RULE 130 SECTION 13
Sec. 13 . Interpretation according to circumstances. For the proper construction of an
instrument, the circumstances under which it was made, including the situation of the
subject thereof and of the parties to it, may be shown, so that the judge may be placed
in the position of those who language he is to interpret. (11)
RULE 130 SECTION 14:
RULE 130 SECTION 15
Sec. 15 . Written words control printed. When an instrument consists partly of written
words and partly of a printed form, and the two are inconsistent, the former controls the
latter. (13)
RULE 130 SECTION 16
Sec. 16 . Experts and interpreters to be used in explaining certain writings. When the
characters in which an instrument is written are difficult to be deciphered, or the
language is not understood by the court, the evidence of persons skilled in deciphering
the characters, or who understand the language, is admissible to declare the characters
or the meaning of the language.
RULE 130 SECTION 17
Sec. 17 . Of Two constructions, which preferred. When the terms of an agreement
have been intended in a different sense by the different parties to it, that sense is to
prevail against either party in which he supposed the other understood it, and when
different constructions of a provision are otherwise equally proper, that is to be taken
which is the most favorable to the party in whose favor the provision was made. (15)
RULE 130 SECTION 18
Sec. 18 . Construction in favor of natural right. When an instrument is equally
susceptible of two interpretations, one in favor of natural right and the other against it,
the former is to be adopted.
RULE 130 SECTION 19:
Sec. 19 . Interpretation according to usage. An instrument may be construed
according to usage, in order to determine its true character.
Art. 10. In case of doubt in the interpretation or application of laws, it is presumed that the
lawmaking body intended right and justice to prevail. (n)
Art. 11. Customs which are contrary to law, public order or public policy shall not be
countenanced. (n)
Art. 13. When the laws speak of years, months, days or nights, it shall be understood that years
are of three hundred sixty-five days each; months, of thirty days; days, of twenty-four hours; and
nights from sunset to sunrise. If months are designated by their name, they shall be computed by
the number of days which they respectively have. In computing a period, the first day shall be
excluded, and the last day included. (7a)
