Maari bang bawiin ang lupa na binigay ng magulang mo?

What if binigyan ka na ng lupa ng magulang mo? Pwede pa ba nila ito bawiin? Touch move na ba ito? Madalas sa Pilipinas na binibigay na ng magulang yung mga ar-arian nila sa kanilang mga anak kahit buhay pa sila. O kaya, ipinapangalan na ito sa mga anak. Pero paano kung gusto na bawiin ng magulang yung lupa? Ganyan ang tanong ng reader natin today, na si Crystal B., who says: "Hi, attorney. I have this sister that wanted to divide our parents' properties even though they are still alive. Way back in 2011, one property (about 1 hectare or so) was transferred to her name, because she asked our parents that she will only use it for applying for a job in Canada. My mother is still the one paying for the tax on that land. Now, my brother and his wife are occupying the property. We already agreed before that we will give the land to our brother. However, my brother and sister have a big misunderstanding. She now wanted to divide my parents' property. My question here attorney is: Can our parents legally take back the land? Thank you." So today paguusapan ang: 1. Paano kung nai-transfer na ang property sa anak, pwede pa ba itong bawiin? 2. Ano ang tinatawag nating mga simulated contracts?
