Supreme Court Spokesman and Court Administrator Jose Midas Marquez on Wednesday accused the Aquino government of emboldening the public to defy the courts.
Speaking during the Supreme Court’s annual media forum in Baguio City, Marquez said the judiciary is bearing the brunt of the impeachment trial and the public attacks of President Benigno Aquino III against Chief Justice Renato Corona.
“The dilemma lies not in the effect that these public attacks have on the Chief Justice himself; the dilemma lies in the fact that ultimately, it is the institution itself—the Judiciary—which will bear the brunt of these assaults,†Marquez said.
