ATTYS. JIMMY BONDOC AND JESS FALCIS CLASH OVER VP SARA’S MOTION TO DISMISS Atty. Jimmy Bondoc and Atty. Jess Falcis engaged in a heated debate on #PolitikoTalks over the legal strategy behind Vice President Sara Duterte’s bid to have her impeachment case dismissed. Bondoc defended the move as a routine legal tactic, arguing that defense lawyers are expected to first challenge a case on jurisdictional and procedural grounds before addressing the merits. He maintained that seeking a dismissal does not mean the defense is unwilling to answer the allegations during trial. Falcis, however, pushed back, citing constitutional interpretations that the Senate’s role in an impeachment case is limited to conducting a trial and ultimately acquitting or convicting the respondent. He also questioned why key allegations, including the grave threats charge, were not directly addressed in the executive summary of the Vice President’s answer, fueling further debate on the appropriateness of the defense strategy. Watch the full episode on #PolitikoTalks.

ATTY. JESS FALCIS REJECTS ‘SELECTIVE JUSTICE’ CLAIMS, CITES PATTERN IN PLUNDER CASES Atty. Jess Falcis pushed back against claims of political persecution in recent plunder cases, arguing that the repeated appearance of certain public officials in high-profile corruption allegations points to a broader pattern rather than selective justice. Speaking on #PolitikoTalks, Falcis noted that some politicians have faced multiple plunder accusations over the years, making it difficult to attribute every new case solely to political motives. He also discussed how previous defendants benefited from the Supreme Court’s “main plunder doctrine,” which became a key factor in securing bail or dismissals in earlier cases. According to Falcis, prosecutors appear to have adjusted their legal strategies in response to past rulings, including identifying alleged masterminds in newer cases to address issues raised in previous plunder prosecutions.

CHEL DIOKNO: RULES SHOULD APPLY EQUALLY TO PROSECUTION, DEFENSE, SENATOR-JUDGES House prosecutor Rep. Chel Diokno says the rules governing the impeachment trial should be applied “equally” and “even-handedly” not only to the prosecution and defense, but also to members of the Senate Impeachment Court. “We do hope and we will continue to push for equality and even handedness in application of all the rules that would apply to the prosecutors and to the others who are part of the prosecution team at pati sa defense at pati rin sa mga membro ng impeachment court,” Diokno said.

DUTERTE TO ATTEND IN 'APPROPRIATE FORUM' ONLY Atty. Michael Poa, head of the defense team of Vice President Sara Duterte, reiterated their position that the House of Representatives does not have jurisdiction over the impeachment proceedings, adding that Duterte will only attend in "appropriate forum." “Her non-attendance is based on the position of the defense regarding the jurisdiction or the lack thereof in terms of the type or the nature of proceedings that are being conducted. Kaya isinapubliko na lang niya ‘yung statement niya,” he said in a press conference on Thursday. Duterte skipped the first three House impeachment proceedings. During the third session yesterday, April 22, the Anti-Money Laundering Council revealed that it had flagged suspicious transactions amounting to P6.77 billion involving Duterte and her husband Atty. Manases Carpio. (Video by bellacariaso)
