[Title] => Judging the judges by speed of work
[Summary] => Never before has the judiciary been so disturbingly under public fire. Lawyers and litigants are loudly grumbling about patently wrong rulings and misconduct by judges. Complaints range from plain laziness to gross ignorance of the law to shameless corruption. It’s not mere sour-graping. For, winners gloat as loudly not about the strength of their arguments in open court but the sums that changed hands behind closed chambers or, at times, in cockpits.

[Title] => Davide defends SC ruling on Erap ouster
[Summary] => The Supreme Court is "truly worth dying for."
With these words, Chief Justice Hilario Davide Jr. defended the Supreme Court (SC) from "attacks" by critics, saying all its decisions are lawful and made for the benefit of the people.
Davide made the comment during the necrological services for retired Supreme Court Justice Sabino de Leon, who died June 16 due to aneurysm. De Leon was appointed to the SC by ousted President Joseph Estrada in October 1999 and served until June 2002. He was 71.

[Title] => Estrada to appear before anti-graft court today
[Summary] => Detained former President Joseph Estrada is expected to appear before the Sandiganbayan today for questioning by the anti-graft court on his insistence that he was still president and his 2001 ouster was illegal.
"Security preparations for tomorrow have all been set up as usual. We’re ready for his appearance," said Ed Urieta, Sandiganbayan sheriff.
Estrada had asked a dismissal of the plunder and other corruption charges against him. He maintained that he was immune from suit and the Sandiganbayan, therefore, has no jurisdiction over him.

[Title] => Desierto favors live TV coverage of Erap trial
[Summary] => Filipinos may yet be treated to another television drama after Ombudsman Aniano Desierto changed his mind and dropped his objection to the proposed media coverage of the corruption trial of jailed former President Joseph Estrada.
"I am now in favor of the live (media) coverage of Estrada," said Desierto, adding that government lawyers would likely ask the Sandiganbayan this week to allow media coverage of Estrada’s corruption trial.

[Title] => Estrada trial to push through Monday
[Summary] => The Sandiganbayan yesterday affirmed the trial of former President Joseph Estrada and his co-accused for the capital charge of plunder will push through on Monday as scheduled.
This developed as Estrada’s lawyers asked the Supreme Court yesterday to defer the trial until the SC rules on the constitutionality of the plunder law.
The appeal to the high tribunal was apparently a last-ditch effort of Estrada’s lawyers to reset the trial from Oct. 1 to an undetermined date in November.

[Title] => Sandigan: Estrada can’t go home
[Summary] => The Sandiganbayan turned down yesterday ousted President Joseph Estrada’s plea to be allowed to go home after he spent a miserable first night in prison.
This developed as the Philippine National Police (PNP) sought a court order for the transfer of Estrada to a prison especially made for him in Sta. Rosa, Laguna.
The anti-graft court handling Estrada’s case for economic plunder, a crime punishable by death, heard his formal petition to be placed under house arrest.

[Title] => Estrada posts bail, avoids arrest
[Summary] => The first Philippine president to be impeached broke new ground again yesterday, becoming the first former chief executive to be ordered arrested for corruption.
Joseph Estrada surrendered to the Sandiganbayan two hours after the anti-graft court issued warrants for his arrest on charges of corruption and perjury.
His entourage struggled to shield Estrada from ca-meras as he was fingerprinted. He submitted mug shots and was allowed to post P30,000 bail for corruption and P10,000 for perjury for his temporary freedom.
