INQUIRER.net Group airs concern over JBC rules suspension
- The Supreme Court Appointments Watch (SCAW) expressed concern over the proposed suspension of the JBC rules that disqualify candidates with pending cases. "The art of rebuilding credibility within the judiciary is a transparent and consistent application of the rules in the nomination and selection of our magistrates. The JBC cannot play loose with its rules," the SCAW said in its letter to the JBC sent Monday. The same rule, it pointed out, was used in 2009 against the Justice Secretary Agnes Devanadera, who was disqualified for the Supreme Court Associate Justice post.
