married, with address at San Jose Village, Umapad, Mandaue City, Cebu
where he may be served with summons and other processes of this

3. This Honorable Court issued an Order dated June 15, 2017 fixing the
amount of monthly support that Respondent should provide to
Petitioner’s son, BRANDON ENCARNACION VILLALON, effective June 2017
in the amount of Twenty-five Thousand Pesos (P25,000.00). A copy of the

Reconsideration on July 14, 2017, as shown by, hereto attached copy of
the said Motion for Reconsideration marked as Annex “B”;
5. Petitioner filed its Comment and Opposition to the Motion for

Reconsideration of the Respondent on August 9, 2017 which is attached
herewith as Annex “C”;
6. Respondent then filed a Manifestation dated March 16, 2018, to be

allowed to give support in the lower amount of P8,000.00. Copy of said
Manifestation is hereby attached as Annex “D”;
7. The Court resolved the foregoing Manifestation in its Order dated June 8,

through counsel, filed a Motion to this Honorable Court, to Cite
Respondent in Indirect Contempt; attached herewith as Annex “F”;
9. However, this Honorable Court has denied the Motion in its Order dated
July 6, 2018, as it prefers that charges for Indirect Contempt shall be
commenced by a verified petition with supporting particulars and
certified true copies of documents involved therein, thus, this Petition.
PRAYER
WHEREFORE, premises considered, it is most respectfully prayed of this

Honorable Court to hold Respondent Jesus Christopher V. Villalon in Indirect
Contempt for not complying the Order of the Court, a clear resistance to the lawful
order and opposition to the authority of this Honorable Court which is highly
contemptible. Holding Respondent in Indirect Contempt is necessary to preserve
the dignity of the court from Respondent’s offensive personalities and
contumacious refusal to comply with the Order.
Such other reliefs just and equitable under the circumstances present are
likewise prayed for.
Most respectfully submitted.
July 19, 2018. Cebu City, Philippines.
