1/4 The scars of martial law run deep. They have left a lasting impact not only for the victims of abuses but also for our justice system and legal profession. Of all the gov’t institutions, our justice system suffered the most

Hindi mo ikamamatay ang pagpapakumbaba.

Nakakapangit ng inyong paghuhugas-kamay. Tingnan mo, nakapahamak ka na. 😂✌️

Tama, hindi madaling makalimot. Pero madali namang magbayad ng tamang buwis at magpakita ng katiting na pagsisisi. Mas mabilis gumaling ang sugat pag ginagamot.

Is this do-able? Yes. The DOJ could simply issue an administrative circular requiring prosecutors to comply with the shortened periods.

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

Provincial Prosecutor to act on the resolution can also be cut to 4 days. This would shorten the period by more than half, without sacrificing due process. If this was done in the SUV case, a warrant of arrest could have been issued within 3-4 weeks instead of 7 weeks.

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

The 10-day period for the prosecutor to resolve the preliminary investigation can be shortened to 4 days. The 5-day period for the prosecutor to forward the case to the City or Provincial Prosecutor can also be shortened to 3 days. And the 10-day period for the City or

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

The 10-day period provided in the Rules of Court to file a counter-affidavit could be shortened to 5 days. Extensions should not be allowed except in very narrow circumstances, and if granted, should not be more than 3 days.

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

MAY PARAAN PA KAYA PARA MAPABILIS ANG PROSESO? SA AKING PALAGAY, MERON.

In cases where the respondent may leave the country to avoid prosecution, prosecutors should have the power to conduct a fast-track preliminary investigation.

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

If there are requests for extension or postponements, it could take longer than that.

All of this is allowed by our Rules of Criminal Procedure. The purpose, of course, is to make sure that due process of law is followed.

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

If you add this all up, a warrant of arrest (assuming there is probable cause) can only be issued around July 28, 2022 – that’s around 7 weeks after the incident occurred. In my experience as a litigator, mabilis pa nga yan.

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

Within 5 days from doing so, the prosecutor must forward the records of the case to the City Prosecutor, who has 10 days to act on it. If the City Prosecutor decides to file the case with the court, the judge has 10 days to decide if there is probable cause to issue a warrant.

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

but based on news reports the respondent, Jose Antonio Sanvicente, did not submit his counter-affidavit. If he submits his counter-affidavit at the next hearing on June 23, 2022, the investigating prosecutor has 10 days to resolve the preliminary investigation.

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

Look at the timeline: The incident happened on June 5, 2022. The next day, the Mandaluyong police filed charges of frustrated murder and abandonment of victim against the owner of the SUV. The Mandaluyong Prosecutor’s Office began its preliminary investigation on June 17, 2022,

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

BA’T WALA PA RING WARRANT OF ARREST SA MANDALUYONG HIT AND RUN CASE?

May malaki kasing butas sa batas natin, at napakatagal ng proseso sa pag-issue ng warrant of arrest.

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

Defamation is a more general term; it can be oral, written or by deeds. Libel is specific; it’s defamation with an element of publication. Libel is written/published, while cyberlibel is published online. Slander is oral. Defamation is a more general that can cover any of those.

[Chel Diokno @ChelDiokno]

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIBEL AND DEFAMATION?

Marami ang nagtatanong dahil sa trial ni Johnny Depp at Amber Heard 😅 Here is my answer, in the Inquirer:

Hinihikayat po namin si Atty. @ChelDiokno na simulan na ang pagpunta sa gym, pag-eensayo ng action stunts dahil kami ang magpo-produce ng una niyang action film na pinamagatang MISTApportunity.

Hihikayatin din namin siyang magbawas ng talino para mas wonderful.
