Sandiganbayan denies inhibition attempt of ex-BI deputy commissioners 0 SHARES Share it! There should be clear and convincing proof of bias or prejudice before the inhibition takes place. For the Sandiganbayan, it is not enough for Fernandez to undergo voluntary inhibition because Argosino and Robles failed to prove any bias on her part. The accused also failed to state the specific bias or partiality on the part of Justices Miranda and Trespeses. The Sandiganbayan further ruled that their lack of proof regarding the justices’ partiality is simply “an exercise in futility.”
