COUNTER AFFIDAVIT
I, LANZ AIDAN L. OLIVES, single, of legal age, Filipino, with residence at
248 Salcedo St., San Antonio, Cavite City, after having been duly sworn in
accordance with law, hereby depose and state: THAT
1. I am the same person who is the respondent in the instant case;
2. Paragraphs 2, 3, 4, and 5 of the affidavit of Michelle A. Vale Cruz are
ADMITTED.
3. As regards paragraphs 6 and 7, the truth is: I became really depressed
after being terminated from my job but it is not true that I get mad to
her and our children easily. In fact, since I was always at home, I had
more time bonding with my children.

4. Paragraph 8 is DENIED. Although it is true that I became more

stressed because of unpaid billings, I never cursed in front of my
common-law wife and I never cursed her.
5. Paragraphs 9, 10 13, and 14 are DENIED. I never hurt the
complainant. During those though times, we were always fighting but
I never laid my hands on my wife.
6. As regards paragraph 13, the truth of the matter are as follows: On
November 2, 2015, it was complainants first day of work. She
previously informed me that her shift was from 8:00am to 5:00pm. It
was already 6:00pm and she has not arrived home yet. I tried calling
her several times but she did not answer. I was worried about her so I
decided to call some college friends over. The complainant arrived
around 11:00pm. During that time, I was having a few drinks with my
college friends. I noticed that she was driven home by a guy with a
car. When we entered our house, I asked her who that guy was. She
shouted at me and said, Wala ka na don! Sawang-sawa na ako sa
yo! Ako pa ang kailangang magtrabaho para sa atin! Mabuti pa ang
ibang lalake dyan! Wala kang kwenta! Enraged, I threw her bag and
some papers on the table in our living room. She also started throwing
her things to me. My friends and children approached us and tried to
stop us. As a result of the commotion, our son, Lance, fell on the
ground and was slightly hurt.
7. Paragraph 14 is DENIED.
complainants mother.

I never had a confrontation with the

8. Paragraph 15 is DENIED. The truth of the matter are as follows: I was

watching my son and our neighbors son play outside when I heard
my son said, Gago ka! Madaya! I apprehended my son right at that
very moment. I admonished him and told him that he should not be
saying bad words. However, I never hit my son.
9. The filing of the complaint is the complainants way of leaving me
because she intends to be with his paramour already. I have been
noticing that since she started applying for a job, there has been
always someone who drops her off a few blocks away from our house.
Also, she always gets calls and text messages late in the evening. And

on the day the complainant left me, she told me that she deserves
someone better than me, like his co-worker.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto affixed my signature this 13 th
day of April 2016 in the City of Cavite, Philippines
