CJ Peralta reminds all judges on trial dates, case resolution

In Memorandum Order No, 74-2019 dated Nov. 4, 2019, Peralta said the directive to all trial court judges is in line with his 10-point agenda as head of the judiciary.

Earlier, Peralta had said that the de-clogging of all court dockets, from the Supreme Court down to the lower courts, is the priority in his agenda. To achieve the de-clogging of court dockets, Peralta said clerks of court in the SC “will be required to conduct periodic inventory of all the cases pending in their divisions and consult with the court en banc as to how to solve the issue of backlog and other concerns.”

In the same memorandum, Peralta reminded judges to prohibit the use or cellular telephones and other electronic communication gadgets while the courts are in session.
