CAMP John Hay Development Corporation (CJHDevCo) headed by trader Rober John Sobrepeña’s determination to stay in Camp John Hay in Baguio City is beyond normal.
It seems that the CJHDevCo management is literally waiting to be carried by authorities out of the premier facility since the court order have apparently fallen on their deaf ears.
Last April 20, 2015, the Office of the Ex-Officio Sheriff of the First Judicial Region, Branch 6, of the Regional Trial Court in Baguio City, released an order for the CJHDevCo to abandon Camp John Hay.
It has been almost a month since the order was released, but nobody seems to be packing their things. Sobrepeña’s camp claims that they could not immediately abandon the premises due to its existing sub-lease contract with those who have set up businesses inside Camp John Hay. This is not acceptable.
The CJHDevco explained that it has to refund to the traders inside Camp John Hay the amount they have paid to the corporation as rental fees among other obligations under the existing contract.
If this is Sobrepeña’s explanation, it is not acceptable that he returns the blame to the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) since it has already fulfilled its obligation to secure the rights of the traders who will be affected by the order for CJHDevCo to abandon Camp John Hay.
Last April 21, 2015, the BCDA, under its CEO Arnel Paciano Casanova, submitted to the court P1.42 billion. The fund will be used to refund the fees paid by traders whose contracts will be affected by the April 20, 2015 order of the RTC Branch 6 order.
Since the BCDA has already fulfilled its obligation, Sobrepeña should urge the court to release the said fund so that his sub-lessees could get their refunds.
If he could not immediately get the fund, Sobrepeña should fork out his own money and heed the court’s order to prevent things from getting more complicated.
