Para sa isang legal expert, mainam na idiretso na sa Korte Suprema ang isyu kung ilang senador ang kailangang bumoto para ma-convict si Vice President Sara Duterte sa impeachment trial. Batid naman daw ng mataas na hukuman kung gaano kahalaga ang isyu para sa bayan, kaya hindi raw patatagalin ng korte ang kanilang
desisyon.

00:00Para sa isang legal expert, mainam na idiretsyo na sa Korte Suprema ang issue
00:04kung ilang senador ang kailangan bumoto para makonvict si Vice President Sara Duterte sa impeachment trial.
00:10Batid naman daw ng mataas na hungkuman kung gaano kahalagang issue para sa bayan.
00:15Kaya hindi daw patatagalin ng Korte ang kanilang desisyon.
00:18Narito ang aking report.
00:23Para maresolva ang kwestiyon ng kung ilang senador ang kailangan bumoto
00:27para makonvict si Vice President Sara Duterte,
00:30mag-iimbita ang Senate Impeachment Court ng Amici Curie o Friends of the Court sa September 16.
00:36Sana sa pamamagitan ng kanilang kaalaman at lawak ng kaalaman,
00:40kaugnay sa batas, sa saligang batas at kaya din,
00:42karamesan nila sa mga legal na bagay, ay mabigyan tayo ng kanilang kaisipan.
00:49Kaugnay sa isang ito, paborman o kontra sa magkabilang panig.
00:53We already talked about some retired justices of the Supreme Court,
00:58but I'm not yet at liberty to state their names because we have not yet gotten in touch with them.
01:03Kung si dating Philippine Bar Association, President Attorney Rico Domingo ang tatanungin,
01:08mas mainam kung idiretso na sa Korte Suprema ang issue.
01:11The Supreme Court has the sole discretionary power to interpret the Constitution.
01:15So, tanging Korte Suprema lang ang pwedeng mag-interpret ng Constitution.
01:19So, ibig ba talaga sabihin nito, hindi pwedeng impeachment court ang magsasabi on their own
01:27na kailangan two-thirds or pwedeng majority?
01:30Under the Constitution, ang trial ng impeachment would be solely or exclusively sa Senate.
01:36It's legal ang issue na ito ang Supreme Court.
01:40Kaya kung tatawagin pa natin, with all due respect, with the president's officer,
01:45to tawagin pa natin ang mico-scurie, ganoon din mangyayari dyan.
01:49Ang gagawin ng Supreme Court would be to take cognizance of that petition
01:52kung meron ang question along that line, at tatawagin din niya ang mico-scurie na yan.
01:57So, ang mangyayari dyan, pahahabay lang yan ang trial.
02:02Tingin ni Domingo, hindi pa tatagalin ng Korte Suprema ang pagdinig sa issue,
02:06lalo't mahalaga ito para sa bayan.
02:08The Supreme Court, nakikita nila ang primacy and the importance of this particular issue.
02:13Baka naman by December, if we post the petition this early,
02:18e by December, palagay ko po naman na may resolution na yan.
02:22Kaugnay naman sa plano ng prosekusyon na ipatawag si Vice President Duterte sa impeachment trial,
02:27tingin ni Atty. Domingo,
02:28May nangingibabaw ba doon sa dalawang karapatang yun?
02:31Ang constitution ba?
02:32May pinapangunahan or parang meron silang preferred right?
02:37Parang is there a right that they give more credit to or more proceedings to?
02:43Babalansin yan ang buti.
02:44But I think at the end of the day, we have to go to the constitutional prohibition against self-incrimination.
02:51Gusto mangyayari yan, ang practical effect niya.
02:53Even assuming, for the sake of argument, na pumunta si Vice Presidente at napunta sa witness stand,
03:02ang sasabihan lang niya, I invoke the right to self-incrimination.
03:06Ayun kay Atty. Michael Powa ng defense team, hindi naman sila nababahala sakaling magpalabas ng subpina laban sa vice.
03:12Hindi pa naman talaga siya ripe pag-usapan dahil napanggit nga ng ating distinguished prosecutor na si Atty. Capuna
03:20na hindi pa naman sila humihingi ng subpina at this point.
03:23Yeah, there are no worries at this point.
03:25We don't know kasi rin kung ano yung purpose nung magiging subpina sa kanya,
03:29kung ano yung magiging scope ng testimony na gusto nilang makuha sa kanya.
03:32Ang prosecution naman, sinagot ang ipinuto ni Lead Defense Counsel Atty. Sheila Sison
03:37na ang pagpapatawag sa Vice Presidente para tumestigo sa impeachment trial
03:41ay paglabag sa kanyang karapatan.
03:43You will not see that anywhere in the Constitution saying that any person has the right to not to take
03:50the witness stand.
03:51There's no such provision.
03:52The provision that you will see is right against self-incrimination.
03:56Kahit normal witness ka lang, you can also invoke that right.
03:59Pag pinatawag ka ng witness at may tinanong sa'yo na it will incriminate you,
04:06ayaw mo siyang sagutin, you can also invoke it.
04:08But, it will be on a per-question basis.
04:12Hindi mo pwedeng sabihin,
04:13hindi ako uupo dyan as testigo at all because of my right against self-incrimination.
