Question 14
14. On February 25, 2019, Bob approached Edward to borrow Php 100,000.00 purportedly to settle some obligations, promising that he would pay the loan using a postdated check. Convinced by Bob's promises of repayment with interest, and because of their closeness as former classmates in high school, Edward agreed to lend the said amount. As payment, Bob made, drew, issued in favor of, and delivered to Edward in the latter's residence at No. 112 Maria Orosa St., Ermita, Manila, CBC Savings Bank Check No. 32710 postdated August 25, 2019 in the amount of Php 105,000.00. When the check was presented for payment on its due date in CBC Savings Bank Quezon City Branch, it was dishonored due to: “Drawn Against Insufficient Funds” (DAIF).
On January 22, 2020, Edward sent a demand letter to Bob to pay the face valueof the check, but said demand, although received by Bob, was not heeded.
Hence, the check remained unpaid, with no arrangement for its payment.
