2. Determination as to the cause of action
A. The Plaintiff’s assertion 1) The Plaintiff’s assertion by coercion is that the Plaintiff issued the Promissory Notes and prepared the instant authentic deed for C as a result of the Defendant’s threat that he would file a complaint against the Plaintiff’s friendship C in fraud. As such, the Plaintiff asserts to the effect that the issuance of the Promissory Notes and the instant authentic deed are revoked by serving a written document dated December 16, 2013. 2) The Plaintiff’s testimony alone is insufficient to recognize that the Defendant made a coercion with respect to the issuance of the Promissory Notes and the preparation of the instant authentic deed, and there is no other evidence to acknowledge this otherwise, and therefore, this part of the Plaintiff’s assertion is without merit.
B. The Plaintiff’s assertion that was cancelled due to fraud is as follows: (a) prior to the issuance of the Promissory Notes in this case and the preparation of the notarial deed in this case, C had already made payment of its debt to the Defendant; (b) the Defendant had deceiving the Plaintiff as if the said debt was not extinguished.
