Law School Days: Second Semester, Third Year
The main reason I could not continue this series was I forgot the subjects I took from Third Year hence, particularly my electives. But since I found my transcript of records (rotting somewhere in my personal files), I have a guide so I can finish this series. So here we go again:
1. Succession- 4 units; Atty. Avelino Sebastian, Jr.
2. Taxation II- 3 units; Atty. Renato Bañez
3. Banking I- 2 units; Atty. Avelino Sebastian, Jr.
4. International Business Law- 2 units; Atty. Roy Rafols
5. Corporate Finance- 3 units; Atty. Herminio S. Ozaeta, Jr.
6. Insurance- 2 units; Atty. Jose Quimson
7. Partneship- 1 unit; (I actually forgot who taught it...)
8. Torts-2 units; Atty. Palacios
1. Yes, I actually had two subjects with Atty. Sebastian: one major subject (Succession) and one elective subject (General Banking). As usual, he called me everyday in succession, I'm used to that already. Our banking class was a mix of upper and lower batch students, with Atty. Sebastian's favorites from each batch (Anton Kho and myself) attending. That class was purely lecture. But guess who Atty. Sebastian called the only time he did ask a student to recite?
2. I remember pulling all-nighters to prepare for a presentation in Taxation II. I had my groupmates spend a night in my house to prepare and I was using Harvard Presentation Graphics (the ones used before Powerpoint came along and there was still no Windows, only DOS). Printing those slides to transparencies (again, no LCD projectors then, too) took a good portion of a day. Our professor took those slides since and I presume he used it as he was Commissioner of Internal Revenue at the time...
3. I remember Atty. Rafols "What are the dawkyumints?" question, as he talked in a particular "call-center" accent at the time.
4. And there was this "dead rat" incident with Atty. Palacios... During class, he thought he smelled a rat... and when he left, he was actually stepping on one...
5. Did not learn anything from Atty. Ozaeta, except what IPO means...
1. Dean's List for the fifth (consecutive) time.
2. I actually had no class scheduled every Wednesday for that semester and I spent my Wednesdays unwinding by renting a lot of Laser Discs (my "LD day"). Then my classmates always wonder why I'm always tired the day after... I miss those days...
2 Objection(s):
Hi there! I'm Mr. Ilaw Gelmar Cruz of San Beda Graduate School of Law. I was looking for the office number of Atty. Avelino Sebastian, Jr. So I googled it. And your blog came out. I read it and was glad to know that you are one of his favorites. Uhm, do you know where I can reach him? Thank you so much po. In case he asks, he was referred to me by his friend, Atty. Jose Tesoro. You can send the information to my email: ilawski@gmail.com. Thanks po.
Hello there!
The last time I met Atty. Sebastian was during the wake of my close friend last February. I forgot to get his number. Sorry.
I think he still runs his law office in Ortigas called Sebastian Liganor and Galinato. According to the net, this is the number 635-5071 to 73.
