Published May 19, 2021, 4:59 PM
The minority bloc in the House of Representatives assured parties involved in the on-going impeachment process against Supreme Court Associate Justice Marvic Leonen that “proper procedure” will be observed in resolving the case.
This developed as lawyer Larry Gadon, legal counsel for impeachment complainant Edwin Cordevilla, dared Leonen to give up his chairmanship of the 2021 Bar Examinations because the SC magistrate’s attention will be distracted by the impeachment case filed by his client.
Gadon said Leonen will also have his hands full defending himself from accusations that he failed to submit his Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Networth (SALN) for income he received while teaching at the University of the Philippines. ....

This developed as Gadon called on the House Committee on Justice to immediately set the hearing of the impeachment complaint against Leonen as soon as it is referred to the panel.
Gadon said that although they have gathered evidence that may warrant the filing of a quo warranto case against Leonen, his client, journalist Edwin Cordevilla, will continue to pursue the magistrate’s removal via impeachment. ....
