2 days ago

Tama lang daw na maghain ng petisyon sa Korte Suprema para himukin ang Senado na simulan na ang proseso ng impeachment ni Vice Pres. Sara Duterte, ayon sa isang eksperto. Pero tingin din niya, malabong pagbigyan ito ng SC.

00:00It's only right to file a petition in the Supreme Court

00:03to urge the Senate to start the impeachment process of Vice President Sara Duterte

00:08according to an expert.

00:09But she also thinks that it's a waste to give it to the court.

00:13Why? Do you want to know why?

00:15Here's Ma'am Gonzalez.

00:19While the impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte is taking a long time in the Senate,

00:24political instability is occurring according to constitutional law expert Atty. Domingo Cayoza.

00:30That's why he's in favor of filing a petition for a mandate in the Supreme Court

00:35to urge the Senators to start the impeachment trial.

00:39The petition was filed by the former Special Government Council of the Presidential Commission on Good Government

00:44or PCGG, Catalino Henerilio Jr.

00:55Fourthly, the trial will start when they receive it.

00:59It means there will be no delay.

01:01They are using legal doubts or issues.

01:05In fact, their main reason is that the re-electionists need money.

01:12Others are afraid of the backlash of black voters.

01:17Cayoza said that the Senators now have a copy of the articles of impeachment

01:23VP Duterte should also be given a copy of the articles of impeachment.

01:26In the Constitution, the deadline is clear. It's just 10 days.

01:29Give it to him so that he can answer. Let's find out what his answer is.

01:33They just started it properly.

01:36It's unfair to the Vice President in a way.

01:39The complaint is already on the website.

01:42It's already in the public domain.

01:44But the other party hasn't received a formal answer yet.

01:48What's happening is that there are trolls and their interviews in the media.

01:51But in Cayoza's opinion, the Supreme Court gave the mandamus petition as an excuse for the separation of powers of judicature and legislature.

02:00The Supreme Court doesn't want a constitutional crisis.

02:03The Supreme Court doesn't care much because that's what we call separation of powers.

02:11It's a political question. When will it start?

02:15It is the wisdom of the elected Senators and your respect for a co-equal branch of government.

02:22Retired Associate Justice Antonio Carpio said earlier that he did not agree with the petition.

02:28Based on the Constitution, only the Senate has the power to hear and make decisions on all cases of impeachment.

02:35Only when there is a grave abuse of discretion can the Supreme Court come in.

02:41Just like during the time of the impeachment of Davide.

02:45It's up to the President to call a special session.

02:48You can't just issue a mandamus.

02:50We asked Vice President Sara Duterte and Senate President Cheese Escudero but they didn't have an answer.

02:57But Escudero said that he doesn't think that a special session for impeachment is necessary.

03:03The Vice President said that his legal team is preparing for impeachment.

03:08For the GMA Integrated News, Mav Gonzales for 24 Hours.
