*MANIFESTO AGAINST THE PHILIPPINE SUPREME COURT DECISION UNDER G.R. NOS.
191002, 191032, 191057, 191149, 191342, 191420 AND A.M. NO. 10-2-5-SC*
*We*, *Overseas Filipinos*, JOIN our �*Kababayans*� in SIGNING this
MANIFESTO promoting social justice, human rights, unity, solidarity,
professionalism, and strongly value the essence of peace, liberty,
justice, equality, respect for dignity and principles that bind us
together far beyond ideology and political color, call on the Philippine
Government to hear our voices for we contribute in no small way to the
Philippine economy through our dollar remittances to our families,
relatives, and friends. Furthermore, Overseas Filipinos make their
presence felt in Philippine society through organized medical missions,
assistance projects, charities, and investments.
*Therefore, we commit,
*On March 31, 2010, all the parties listed below, agree to submit this
Manifesto to the Supreme Court of the Philippines in regard to its
latest decision allowing President Arroyo to appoint a Chief Justice
after the retirement of Chief Justice Reynato Puno on May 17, 2010.
*This Supreme Court decision has not considered the following:*
*.* That there is no exigency in the appointment of a permanent Chief
Justice after the retirement of Chief Justice Puno. As a matter of
practice in the United States of America and in the Philippines, the
duties of the Chief Justice are carried out by the most senior associate
justice, who is able to act, until the vacancy ends. There have been
instances of Chief Justices Appointments in the Philippines, there have
been instances of Chief Justices Appointments in the United States when
it has been without a permanent Chief Justice. *_SUPREME COURT OF THE
PHILIPPINES_*: Chief Justice Cayetano Arellano retired on April 1, 1920
and succeeded by Victorino Mapa on July 1, 1920; Chief Justice Manuel
Araullo retired on July 26, 1924 and Ramon Avance�a succeeded him on
April 1, 1925; Chief Justice Roberto Concepcion retired on April
18,1973, and Querube Macalintal succeeded him on October 21, 1973. Chief
Justice Fred Ruiz Castro retired on April 19, 1979, and Enrique Fernando
succeeded him on July 2, 1979.* _U.S.A. SUPREME COURT_*: Chief Justice
John Rutledge retired on December 28, 1795 and was succeeded by Oliver
Ellsworth on March 8, 1796; Chief Justice Ellsworth retired on December
15,1800 and John Marshall succeeded him on February 4, 1801; Chief
Justice Marshall retired on July 6, 1935 and was succeeded by Roger
Brooke Taney on March 28, 1936; Chief Justice Taney retired on October
12, 1864 and was succeeded by Salmon Portland Chase on December 15,
1864; Chief Justice Chase retired on May 7,1873 and was succeeded by
Morrison Remick Waite on March 4, 1874; Chief Justice Waite retired on
March 23, 1888 and was succeeded by Melville Weston Fuller on October 8,
1888; Chief Justice Fuller retired on July 4, 1910 and was succeeded by
Edward Douglass White on December 10, 1910; Chief Justice White retired
on May 19, 1921 and was succeeded by William Howard Taft on July 11,
1921; Chief Justice Frederick Moore Vinson retired on September 8, 1953
and was succeeded by Earl Warren on October 5, 1953. These were examples
of events when both the Supreme Court of the Philippines and the United
States of America were headed by Acting Chief Justices before the
appointment of a Chief Justice. There is no point to the argument that a
vacancy in the Office of the Chief Justice can be dangerous even for a
day. The Chief Justice vote is just one vote of the fifteen (15)
justices in the Supreme Court and a quorum requires eight (8) justices.
Problems that may arise on the May 10, 2010 election do not necessarily
need the immediate attention of the Supreme Court.
*.* That Section 261 of the Omnibus Election Code bans the appointment
of any head, official or appointing officer of a government office or
agency. The Chief Justice is covered by this law because he is
considered head and an appointing officer of the Supreme Court.
*. *That from March 10, 2010 to June 30, 2010, President Arroyo has no
power to appoint the next Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and that
May 17, 2010 falls within the prohibited period. It is an absolute ban
for the President to appoint, including the Chief Justice. The
Philippine Constitution is clear that the prohibition is general without
exceptions of the Chief Justice and the judiciary. President Arroyo
cannot make any appointment until the end of her term on June 30, 2010
except temporary appointments to executive positions when continued
vacancies therein will prejudice public service or endanger public safety.
*.* That by May 17, 2010, there may already be a president-elect and the
proclamation may be held earlier if the losing candidate concedes.
*.* That a political crisis may arise if the elected president on May
10, 2010 will question the appointment of a Chief Justice by President
Arroyo.
*. *That the Constitutional Commission (Concom) that drafted the 1987
Philippine Constitution finding that the establishment of the Judicial
Bar Council (JBC) is not enough to safeguard judicial appointments from
politicalization provided a comprehensive ban on midnight appointments
including the judiciary. The clear intent of the framers of the
Philippine Constitution is, thus far, for the ban on midnight
appointments to apply to the judiciary. Fr. Joaquin G. Bernas, S.J., one
of the framers of the 1987 Philippine Constitution opined that Sections
4 (1) and 9 of Article VIII of the Philippine Constitution simply means
that the President is required to fill vacancies in the Courts within
the time frames provided therein unless prohibited by Section 15 of
Article VII of the Philippine Constitution. This provision (Section 15,
Article VII) expressly provides: Two months immediately before the next
presidential elections and up to the end of his term, a President or
Acting President shall not make appointments, except temporary
appointments to executive positions when continued vacancies therein
will prejudice public service or endanger public safety.
*With all the statements mentioned above, we declare the following:*
*. *We reaffirm our reliance on the Constitution as the fundamental law
of the land, and we pledge ourselves to use all lawful means to bring
about a reversal of this decision of the Supreme Court which is contrary
to the 1987 Philippine Constitution.
*/. /*This unwarranted exercise of power by the Supreme Court, contrary
to the Philippine Constitution, will create a political crisis.
*. *President Arroyo, a transition President, should concentrate at this
time of her presidency in drawing out plans on what her administration
will do during this transition.
*Based on the above reasons, we, therefore, state the following in the
strongest terms:*
*.* We criticize this decision that is taken in clear violation of the
1987 Philippine Constitution.
*. *We are outraged by the fact that it is creating a bad precedent for
a transition president to exercise the appointment of the Chief Justice,
a very critical issue.
*.* We demand that the Supreme Court of the Philippines takes into
consideration public opinion and reverse its decision to uphold the
majesty of constitutional and legal processes.
*. *We call on President Gloria M. Arroyo to do what is right by
refraining from the appointment of a Chief Justice to succeed Chief
Justice Reynato Puno.
