Some SC justices again on quarantine, terror law debates moved next week

MANILA, Philippines — The Supreme Court has rescheduled again its oral argument on the petitions against the Anti-Terrorism Act set on Tuesday, March 9, as some of the justices are currently on self-quarantine.

In the notice issued by en banc Clerk of Court, Atty. Edgar Aricheta, the 5th day of the oral argument is set on March 16.

“Considering that some of the Justices are on self-quarantine as a health precaution against Covid-19, you are hereby informed per instruction of the Honorable Supreme Court, of the suspension of the oral arguments scheduled on March 9, 2021,” the Clerk of Court stated.

This is the second time that the oral argument on the case has been rescheduled due to the need for justices to undergo self-quarantine.
