Moving of read only files under user security is allowed?

I don't have admin users set at all.

Let's start over,

I have the following directory structure.

  temp      dr-xr-xr-x
        testing    -r--r--r--
  writedir  drwxr-xr-x


Under unix (logged in as the user):
   if I do "mv temp writedir"  I get

   mv: cannot unlik `temp/testing': Permission denied
   mv: cannot remove directory `temp': Directory not empty
   mv: cannot remove `temp': Directory not empty


   my new directory structure is 


   temp      dr-xr-xr-x
        testing    -r--r--r--
   writedir  drwxr-xr-x
        temp      dr-xr-xr-x
             testing    -r--r--r--

Under samba (security = user) in my home share.  If I drag temp to writedir I get
   

      writedir  drwxr-xr-x
        temp      dr-xr-xr-x
           testing    -r--r--r--


Under samba ( security = user) in another share 

   parentdir dr-xr-xr-x
      temp      dr-xr-xr-x
           testing    -r--r--r--
      writedir  drwxr-xr-x


   drag temp to writdir gives

   parentdir dr-xr-xr-x
      temp      dr-xr-xr-x
      writedir  drwxr-xr-x
        temp      dr-xr-xr-x
           testing    -r--r--r--


What I want is to drag and get 

   parentdir dr-xr-xr-x
      temp      dr-xr-xr-x
           testing    -r--r--r--
      writedir  drwxr-xr-x
        temp      dr-xr-xr-x
           testing    -r--r--r--
