Legal ‘threats’ ok, not bullying sabong critics see

A widely admired constitutional law guru reportedly said that “[s]tatutory provisions and executive orders antedating the Constitution and incompatible with the the Constitution no longer have any effect.”

EO No. 292, which independent Raissa Robles has dissected, came on July 25, 1987. It did not antedate the Consti, wich was ratified in February, 1987. So my submission is that it is colorable and entertainable to argue that the two documents stand and should be read and given effect together. PNoy’s mother, who had a year of law before marrying Ninoy, cannot be presumed to have enacted an unconstitutional order, given his powerhouse legal team headed by Joker Arroyo, all experienced craftsmen, cum bar topnotchers who had obtained their master’s abroad.
