Former President Joseph Estrada was granted a one-day pass yesterday by the Sandiganbayan allowing him to visit his mother, who will be celebrating her 102nd birthday this Wednesday, as well as seek medical treatment.


The Sandiganbayan Special Division, composed of Presiding Justice Teresita Leonardo de Castro and Associate Justices Francisco Villaruz Jr. and Diosdado Peralta, granted only a day pass on May 2, instead of the three days being asked by the defense counsel of the former president.

                    [Summary] => 

San Juan Mayor Jose Victor "JV" Ejercito was forced to  move his marriage plans to June after the Sandiganbayan rejected his request that his wedding that was supposed to be held yesterday, be held in the resthouse in Tanay, Rizal, where former President Joseph Estrada is detained.


The mayor’s wedding with Maria Hyacinth Lotuaco was scheduled yesterday but was postponed after the graft court rejected his petition.

The Sandiganbayan granted yesterday the request of detained former President Joseph Estrada to visit his ailing 102-year-old mother Doña Mary Ejercito every week.


The graft court, however, clarified that Estrada can visit his mother "only on the specific date, time, place and conditions as may be designated by the court."

                    [Summary] => Ousted President Joseph Estrada’s plunder trial was suspended for a month starting yesterday to give his lawyers time to prepare him for his court appearance on March 15.


Last Monday, the anti-graft court’s special division granted in open court the defense’s request to suspend the hearing for a month.


Former chief Manila fiscal Jose Flaminiano, one of Estrada’s lawyers, said they have begun preparing their client for his scheduled March 15 court appearance.

"All pleadings must be submitted by next week as (the) court will determine how much time will be given to (try the case)," said Presiding Justice Teresita Leonardo-de Castro, special division chairwoman.

Lead defense counsel Rene Saguisag said they would most probably call their 68-year-old client to the witness stand in "September," where he will justify his request for bail before the Sandiganbayan.
