    Letter To DO

    The letter is from a public attorney's office to a schools division superintendent regarding a complaint filed by one of the teachers, Ma. Elena N. Hercer-Magno. Hercer-Magno wanted to change the surname on her records from Hercer to Hercer-Magno to include her married name, but the request was refused by Linda Icaranom. The letter cites the law that allows a married woman to choose to use her maiden name, husband's name, or a combination of both. It demands that the superintendent take action to enforce Hercer-Magno's right to choose her surname, otherwise legal action will be pursued against Icaranom.

    Republic of the Philippines

    Department of Justice
    PUBLIC ATTORNEY’S OFFICE
    Catanduanes Provincial Office
    Virac, Catanduanes

    September 16, 2019

    SOCORRO V. DELA ROSA, CESO V


    Schools Division Superintendent
    Division of Catanduanes
    Virac, Catanduanes

    Thru: LINDA ICARANOM


    Administrative Assitant III

    Dear Madam:

    This relates to the complaint of our client, MRS. MA. ELENA N. HERCER-
    MAGNO, Teacher III of your school, that MRS. LINDA ICARANOM refused to
    accept the change of surname of our client from MA. ELENA N. HERCER to MA.
    ELENA N. HERCER-MAGNO in the rolls of your Division.

    It must be noted that under the law, specifically Title XIII, Use of Surname of the
    New Civil Code of the Philippines, Article 370 provides that: A married woman
    may use:

    1) Her maiden first name and surname and add her husband’s surname, or
    2) Her maiden first name and her husband’s surname, or
    3) Her husband’s full name, but prefixing a word indicating that she is his
    wife, such as “Mrs.”

    “Clearly, a married woman has an option, but not a duty, to use the surname of
    the husband in any of the ways provided by Article 370 of the Civil Code. She is
    therefore allowed to use not only any of the three names provided by the law but
    also her maiden name upon marriage. She is not prohibited from continuously
    using her maiden name once she is married because when a woman marries, she
    does not change her name but only her civil status. Further, this interpretation is
    in consonance with the principle that surnames indicate descent”

    Mrs. MA. ELENA N. HERCER-MAGNO has duly submitted with the Division
    Office all the documents necessary for the change of her name in the rolls but the
    same were not accepted by Mrs. LINDA ICARANOM and contending that she
    is already a married woman, so she must use the surname of her husband. As
    provided for by the law, it is the married woman-in-interest or involve should
    decide or has the right to choose to use the surname of the husband. It is clear
    that Mrs. LINDA ICARANOM has no legal standing or any right to intervene
    with our client’s choice of using surname.

    In view thereof, our client, through this office, respectfully demand for your office
    to take action within reasonable period of time from receipt hereof, otherwise we
    will be constrained to institute the necessary action against Mrs. LINDA
    ICARANOM before the proper court to enforce and protect the rights and
    interests of our client.

    Thank you.

    Respectfully,

    JANETH B. ALVAREZ
    Public Attorney I
