Selection process for next Chief Justice of Supreme Court

The Judicial and Bar Council (JBC) allowed on Monday the use of cameras and tape recorders during the selection process for the next Chief Justice of the Supreme Court (SC).

"The Judicial and Bar Council has also resolved to allow cameras and tape recorders in the room where interviews of the candidates are held as well as live TV and radio coverage of the proceedings," SC Acting spokesperson Atty. Maria Victoria Gleoresty Guerra said in a press conference.

The position of Chief Justice was vacated with the impeachment of former Chief Justice Renato C. Corona for culpable violation of the Constitution and betrayal of public trust last May 29.

The JBC's latest ruling deletes Section 5, Rule 10 of the JBC Rules which provides that the interviews shall be conducted in public.

During the interview, only the members of the Council can ask questions to the candidate.

Among other things, the candidate can be made to explain any possible complaint or opposition against him. The proceedings shall be in writing.

Cameras and tape recorders, however, shall not be allowed inside the room. No live TV and radio coverage of the proceedings shall be permitted.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
