CANCELLATION OF ANNOTATION
PRESIDENTIAL DECREE No. 1529
Section 62. Discharge or cancellation. A mortgage or lease on

registered land may be discharge or canceled by means of an
instrument executed by the mortgage or lessee in a form sufficient in
law, which shall be filed with the Register of Deeds who shall make the
appropriate memorandum upon the certificate of title.
Section 50. Subdivision and consolidation plans.

xxx
The Commission may not order or cause any change, modification, or
amendment in the contents of any certificate of title, or of any decree
or plan, including the technical description therein, covering any real
property registered under the Torrens system, nor order the
cancellation of the said certificate of title and the issuance of a new
one which would result in the enlargement of the area covered by the
certificate of title.
Section 70. Adverse claim.

Whoever claims any part or interest in registered land adverse to the
registered owner, arising subsequent to the date of the original
registration, may, if no other provision is made in this Decree for
registering the same, make a statement in writing setting forth fully
his alleged right or interest, and how or under whom acquired, a
reference to the number of the certificate of title of the registered
owner, the name of the registered owner, and a description of the land
in which the right or interest is claimed.
The statement shall be signed and sworn to, and shall state the
adverse claimant's residence, and a place at which all notices may be
served upon him. This statement shall be entitled to registration as an
adverse claim on the certificate of title. The adverse claim shall be
effective for a period of thirty days from the date of registration. After
the lapse of said period, the annotation of adverse claim may be
canceled upon filing of a verified petition therefor by the party in
interest: Provided, however, that after cancellation, no second adverse
claim based on the same ground shall be registered by the same
claimant.
Before the lapse of thirty days aforesaid, any party in interest may file
a petition in the Court of First Instance where the land is situated for
the cancellation of the adverse claim, and the court shall grant a
speedy hearing upon the question of the validity of such adverse
claim, and shall render judgment as may be just and equitable. If the
adverse claim is adjudged to be invalid, the registration thereof shall
be ordered canceled. If, in any case, the court, after notice and
hearing, shall find that the adverse claim thus registered was frivolous,
it may fine the claimant in an amount not less than one thousand
pesos nor more than five thousand pesos, in its discretion. Before the
lapse of thirty days, the claimant may withdraw his adverse claim by
filing with the Register of Deeds a sworn petition to that effect.
Section 77. Cancellation of lis pendens.

Before final judgment, a notice of lis pendens may be canceled upon
order of the court, after proper showing that the notice is for the
purpose of molesting the adverse party, or that it is not necessary to
protect the rights of the party who caused it to be registered. It may
also be canceled by the Register of Deeds upon verified petition of the
party who caused the registration thereof.
At any time after final judgment in favor of the defendant, or other

disposition of the action such as to terminate finally all rights of the
plaintiff in and to the land and/or buildings involved, in any case in
which a memorandum or notice of lis pendens has been registered as
provided in the preceding section, the notice of lis pendens shall be
deemed canceled upon the registration of a certificate of the clerk of
court in which the action or proceeding was pending stating the
manner of disposal thereof.
Section 86. Extrajudicial settlement of estate.

When a deed of extrajudicial settlement has been duly registered, the
Register of Deeds shall annotate on the proper title the two-year lien
mentioned in Section 4 of Rule 74 of the Rules of Court. Upon the
expiration of the two-year period and presentation of a verified petition
by the registered heirs, devisees or legatees or any other party in
interest that no claim or claims of any creditor, heir or other person
exist, the Register of Deeds shall cancel the two-year lien noted on the
title without the necessity of a court order. The verified petition shall
be entered in the Primary Entry Book and a memorandum thereof
made on the title.
No deed of extrajudicial settlement or affidavit of adjudication shall be

registered unless the fact of extrajudicial settlement or adjudication is
published once a week for three consecutive weeks in a newspaper of
general circulation in the province and proof thereof is filed with the
Register of Deeds. The proof may consist of the certification of the
publisher, printer, his foreman or principal clerk, or of the editor,
business or advertising manager of the newspaper concerned, or a
copy of each week's issue of the newspaper wherein the publication
appeared.
-------------
Section 112 of Act No. 496 reads: No erasure, alteration, or

amendment shall be made upon the registration book after the entry
of a certificate of title or of a memorandum thereon and the
attestation of the same by the clerk or any register of deeds, except
by order of the court.

GOVERNMENT OF PHILIPPINES vs. FRANCISCO ABADINAS

G.R. No. L-45324 May 27, 1939
Section 112 of the Land Registration Act precisely provides that, after
the entry of certificate of title, the registered owner may at any time
petition the court in writing stating that new real rights have been
created which do not appear in the certificate. From which it follows
that, if a new right, like, for instance, the right over improvements, is
acquired by the owner, the court may, under the provisions of section
112, upon due notice to the interested parties, take cognizance of and
decide said questions and others to the end that it may order an
amendment of the corresponding certificate of title.
