The Makati City Regional Trial Court Branch 150 will resume its trial of the rebellion case against Senator Antonio Trillanes IV that it has dismissed seven years ago. 138792-804, March 31, 2005), the Makati Court pointed out that the state, like the accused, is also entitled to due process of law. “The court’s jurisdiction over the rebellion case is merely a reiteration of its previous authority to hear and decide the case despite its order of dismissal,” the court said. Justice Secretary Menardo Guevarra, for his part, said that Alameda’s order only confirms that the rebellion case has not been dismissed. /eeREAD: Trillanes secures temporary freedom after posting bailREAD: Arrest Trillanes – Makati courtRead Next
