The camp of detained former Senator Leila de Lima on Friday said there is likelihood that all her drug-related cases may be resolved by March.

"We're looking at our possible timeline na Marso matapos lahat. Halos magkasabay," said Atty. Filibon "Boni" Tacardon in an interview following the day's proceedings at the Muntinlupa Regional Trial Court Branch 204.

De Lima, who has been detained since February 2017, attended the hearing on one of the two remaining cases earlier in the day. "At pagkatapos noon, dahil nakasampa 'yung aming motion for bail, inaasahan namin ito'y ma-resolba na," Tacardon said.Meanwhile, Tacardon said that though they are focusing on De Lima's motion for bail, they are not closing their doors to the possible application of a writ for habeas corpus.
