Estafa Case: Jurisdiction Issues in Makati by Thea Flores is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1. Fukuzume was charged with estafa for selling aluminum scrap wires to Yu and accepting payment but failing to deliver the goods. Yu filed a complaint in Makati court. 2. The RTC of Makati found Fukuzume guilty. The CA affirmed but modified the penalty. Fukuzume appealed. 3. The Supreme Court ruled the Makati court lacked jurisdiction, as the evidence showed the offense was actually committed in Parañaque, not Makati. They set aside the conviction without prejudice to filing in the proper court.
