Supreme Court (SC) (MANILA BULLETIN)
Solicitor General Jose C. Calida is expected to present the side of the government after SC justices have finished their interpellations of the lawyers for the petitioners in the cases.
The first two sessions – last Feb. 2 and Feb. 9 – were concentrated on the arguments of the petitioners through their lawyers. Thereafter, the interpellations of the justices followed.
After Calida’s presentation of the government’s side, the SC is expected to call its two appointed “friends of court” – former Chief Justice Reynato S. Puno and former SC Associate Justice Francis H. Jardeleza – to give their opinions which may help the SC in resolving the petitions.
