T
undertaking with explanation for the late submission of his Notarial
Reports for the months of August, September and October 2023. For the
month of August, I had to go out of town because I wasemployedbya

Worried that I wouldn't be able to comply with my monthly Notarial
report, I employed a secretary to aid me. When the day for filing the
monthly notarial report for the month of September arrived, I was very
busy working on several important tasks that I had to delegate to my
secretary, the duty to file my monthly notarial report. However, my
secretary, due to medical reasons had to take a leave of absence and
because of this, I wasn't able to file my monthly report. In the month of
October,thingsbecameveryhecticwhennewsarrivedthatmymotherwas
suffering from cancer. I went on adownwardspiraltowardsdepression.I
spent sleepless nights watching over her, ceaselessly praying for her

U
consideration of this Honorable Court and further undertakes to be
compliant with the 2004 Rules on Notarial Practice.
Thank you and God bless.
