Respondent attorney sold a portion of his land to the petitioner for P322,000 but was only paid P300,000. When petitioner asked for the land title, respondent could not provide it because he had mortgaged the land. Petitioner then demanded the money back but respondent refused. Petitioner filed a disbarment case against respondent for dishonesty. The court found respondent guilty of gross misconduct and dishonesty for his dealings with petitioner, which reflected poorly on his fitness to practice law.
