MANILA, Philippines—The Supreme Court (SC) officially launched on Monday its Judiciary Public Assistance Section (JPAS).
The JPAS, also known as the Judiciary Help Desk, is the brainchild of Chief Justice Diosdado Peralta.

The JPAS will be under the direct control and supervision of the Office of the Chief Justice.
The help desk will provide assistance and information, as well as address queries, from various Judiciary stakeholders and the public and to receive communications and inquiries from various stakeholders and the public.
