| Another factor which militates against petitioner's claim is the fact that there is no intention on the part of respondent to sell the property. P. D. No. 1517 applies where the owner of the property intends to sell it to a third party.[32] As alleged in her complaint, respondent merely intended to use the leased premises for herself and her siblings. Petitioner, therefore, cannot invoke P.D. No. 1517 to abatement of the complaint for ejectment. | |||||
