THE House committee on
justice is scheduled to vote tomorrow morning whether to impeach Supreme Court (SC)
Associate Justice Mariano C. Del Castillo amid strong protest from the House opposition bloc that the 60 session days as required by the
Constitution for the panel to submit a report before the plenary had already expired.
Iloilo Rep. Niel Tupas, chair of the House committee on justice, said there is no turning back on their agenda to determine whether probable cause exists on the complaint against Del Castillo as he reiterated that the 60 session days have not yet elapsed.
“As of the moment, the panel is scheduled to push through with the determination of probable cause and we have not yet reached the limit,†said Tupas. - source: Journal.com.ph
