Leonen: “The Supreme Court finally comes to the Bangsamoro”

DAVAO CITY – Seven justices of the Supreme Court, including the Chief Justice, visited Marawi City on September 8 to award historical bar site markers but ended up making history themselves.

“Today is just the beginning of the judiciary playing its role to help our Bangsamoro people achieve everlasting peace and the rule of law,” Chief Justice Alexander Gesmundo said. “Today is just the beginning of the judiciary playing its role to help our Bangsamoro people achieve everlasting peace and the rule of law,” Supreme Court Chief Justice Alexander Gesmundo said at the awarding of historical bar site markers to the Mindanao State University in Iligan and General Santos cities in ceremonies held at the MSU main campus in Marawi City on 8 September 2022.

In addition, the Supreme Court, he said, is awaiting the submission of the draft rules regarding the integration of the Shari’ah bar exams. “Soon, we will have integrated Shari’ah bar in the Philippines.” Gesmundo assured that the plans discussed by Justice Dimaampao will not end as mere plans but a reality.

He said the Chief Justice and the rest of the Justices “are fully aware that holding the exam in only one site in Metro Manila caused untold expenses for those who came from Mindanao especially from the Bangsamoro.”
