Title IV Estoppel (1431-1439)

This document outlines estoppel principles under Philippine law. Key points include: 1. Estoppel prevents a person from denying or disproving an admission or representation that another has relied on. 2. Estoppel can arise from a statement or act ("in pais") or a formal deed. 3. If a non-owner sells property and later acquires title, title automatically passes to the buyer. 4. Someone cannot claim their own title against a buyer if they previously represented another person in the sale. 5. A lessee or bailee is estopped from asserting title against the lessor or bailor.
