ANC: IMPEACHMENT VS. CJ CORONA: 5:10-5:20 Top Story - Interview with PH Heart Center Cardiologist Dr. Ludgerio Torres by Bernadette Sembrano and Tony Velasquez

- I am admiring the guts of the CJ for undergoing 3 rigorous hours, ordeal taking the witness stand.
- It is not advisable for Corona to testify on Friday due to medical condition.
- When he developed hypoglycemia, Corona must be at level of incoherence, maybe he does not know where he is going.
- Sen. Enrile should consider Corona's medical condition because he might lose his life if he will appear on court on Friday. That will be again full of emotions.
ABS-CBN: medical bulletin on CJ Corona
- Doctors from The Medical City have advised Chief Justice Renato Corona to remain at the intensive care unit for 48 hours to monitor a possible heart attack. The doctors also advised Corona not to attend this afternoon's impeachment trial due to his condition. Here is the press conference of the doctors on Corona's medical condition. ANC, May 23, 2012.
ANC: Sen. Escudero asks about water.
Cuevas: It's still with Corona. We have copies but not circulated.
Rep. Tupas: None of 188 congressmen signed waiver that Corona distributed.
News5AKSYON. House Minority Leader Danilo Suarez: We join CJ on his cal on signing wavier. House minority will sign waiver too if 188 will.
Atty. Dennis Manalo- The invitation of CJ Corona to prosecutors - complainants and senator Drilon to simultaneously execute bank waivers is intended to prove that the common interpretation of public officials is that there is no legal obligation or duty to disclose foreign currency holdings and deposits in the SALN. While they are obviously not on trial, the issue of interpretation of the SALN law vis-a -vis the fcdu law is. Their refusal to execute waivers only proves that CJ Corona's interpretation is correct or at the very least the current practice.
DZRJ 810 AM update: Senator Escudero asks the Prosecutors if they have already signed their waivers. Tupas answered that none of the 188 have signed it yet. Senator Estrada asks Tupas if he will sign the wavier. Tupas says they will not sign.  Drilon puts on record that he will not sign his waiver because Drilon feels that it will be disastrous for the banking industry.
Then why are Drilon and members of the Prosecution asking CJ Corona to sign his wavier?
DZMM Reporter:
> posibleng sa lunes sa muli haharap sa impeachment court si Cj Corona. > ito ang inamin ngayon ni Atty. Tranquil Salvador kasunod ng rekomendasyon ng mga duktor ni CJ Corona na kailangan itong manatili sa medical city ng 48 hours.

Juego SC Spokesman Midas Marquez, kinumpirma na nagpupulong sa mga oras na ito ang mga doctor ni Chief Justice Renato Corona as Medical City para sa inaasahang medical bulletin na ipalalabas. Marquez, nagpahiwatig ng walang katiyakan kung makakadalo si CJ Corona sa impeachment proceedings mamayang hapon.
GOT THIS>> The invitation of CJ Corona to the 188 complainants, prosecutors, Drilon to also execute waivers is intended to prove that the common practice/interpretation of public officials is that there is no legal duty of obligation to disclose foreign currency deposits in the SALN (absolute confidentiality). While they are not on trial, the issue of interpretation of the SALN law and the FCDU law is. Their refusal to execute waivers shows that CJ Corona's interpretation is the common practice even with the 188 + 1. - DENNIS MANALO
