MANILA, Philippines — The Supreme Court’s Public Information Office (SC PIO) announced that work in the Court of Tax Appeals has been suspended on Monday, July 24, in line with President Bongbong Marcos’ second State of the Nation Address (Sona).
SC Spokesperson Brian Keith Hosaka on Saturday said this work suspension was confirmed by CTA Presiding Justice Roman Del Rosario.
“As per PJ Del Rosario of the CTA, work in the CTA has been suspended on Monday, 24 July 2023. However, a skeleton force shall be maintained in the Office of the Clerk of Court, Judicial Records Division, Cash Division, Security Services, and General Services Division,” said Hosaka.
“Key officials of the CTA were also instructed to make themselves available online and be on call,” he added.
Earlier on Saturday, the Office of the Court Administrator of the SC ordered the early dismissal of work in all Quezon City lower courts on July 24. This was to anticipate the heavy traffic, among other things, that may transpire at the Halls of Justice in Quezon City due to the Sona.
