Start of IMPEACHMENT TRIAL, Monday, January 16, 2012


For the first time in Philippine judiciary history, the highest court official will be tried for various violations. It's about honesty, trust integrity and moral fitness for Chief Justice Renato Corona whose midnight appointment by Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, perceived as  a corrupt president, sparked controversy in 2010.

Hearings will be held at the Senate session hall with the senators as impeachment judges. Renato Corona need not attend the hearings, but his high-powered lawyers will do the defense for him.
