For:
- versus -
CUSTODY of the MINOR
DIXIE KATE M. CODAMON
JANICE B. MANUEL, (HABEAS CORPUS)
Respondent.
x---------------------------------------------x
URGENT MOTION
COMES NOW, the Respondent, through the undersigned counsel,
and unto this Honorable Court, most respectfully states that:
1) Based on the recommendation of the court social worker, the
Respondent-movant is given the right to take the subject child
from the temporary custody of the Petitioner on weekends so as
to strengthen the bond between mother and child, which was
discussed during the last hearing on 12 October 2018;
2) Pursuant to the above, in the evening of 16 November 2018,
respondent-movant, accompanied by her spiritual adviser,
Bernadeth Labagan, went to the residence of Petitioner but was
turned away by the petitioner’s brother, one Jhun Lagdao, citing
that she cannot take said child, which was likewise reiterated by
the petitioner, claiming that he should also be allowed to have
custody of the parties’ other child, Dempsey M. Codamon, Jr.;
3) The behavior of the petitioner and his gang of thugs is
plainly in defiance of the Honorable Court’s Order, thus, should
be sanctioned accordingly;
4) In the meantime, it has become imperative that a court order
be issued directing the Honorable Court’s Sheriff or any
operative of the Philippine National Police to achieve the goal of
this Honorable Court, i.e. the establishment of a good
relationship of the child with both parents, as stated in its Order

dated 12 October 2018, on the 23rd of October 2018 and every
succeeding Friday, if necessary.
PRAYER
WHEREFORE, premises considered, it is so respectfully moved.
Other reliefs, just and equitable, are likewise prayed for.
This 19th day of November 2018, in the City of Baguio, Philippines.
