The House justice committee proceeds with the first impeachment hearing against Vice President Sara Duterte on March 25, 2026, despite her and her lawyers' absence. The agenda includes ground rules, pending motions, subpoenas, and witnesses for the April 14 public hearing. Officials stress the proceedings are evidence-based from official audit findings.
Vice President Sara Duterte's defense team labeled the House committee on justice's 'mini-trial' as unconstitutional following her decision to skip the initial hearing on two remaining impeachment complaints.

The House committee on justice issued multiple subpoenas on Wednesday in connection with impeachment complaints against Vice President Sara Duterte, seeking her statements of assets, tax records and other documents from 2007 to 2025. The panel summoned key witnesses and records from agencies like the Ombudsman, BIR, SEC and NBI. Duterte did not attend the hearing.
Vice President Sara Duterte was formally ordered on Thursday, March 5, to respond to two impeachment complaints filed against her at the House of Representatives. The Office of the Vice President received the notice from the House justice committee at its headquarters in Mandaluyong City. She has a non-extendible 10-day period to file a verified answer.

The House Committee on Justice ruled on March 4, 2026, that the two impeachment complaints against Vice President Sara Duterte—filed in early February and transmitted to the Speaker's office—are sufficient in substance, voting 54-1 to advance proceedings. Duterte has 10 days to respond. Separately, she filed a perjury complaint against former intelligence officer Ramil Madriaga, whose affidavit supported the complaints.
Former campaigner Joey Salceda described Vice President Sara Duterte's announcement of her 2028 presidential bid as a major misstep that leaves a bad taste in politics. He argued that the timing is wrong and driven by flawed political instincts. Meanwhile, Rep. Benny Abante suggested it could benefit her rivals by increasing scrutiny amid impeachment complaints.

Vice President Sara Duterte declared her candidacy for president in the 2028 elections on February 18, 2026, amid four impeachment complaints against her. The announcement followed the spread of a fake AI-generated survey showing her leading with 60% support. Experts say it is a strategy to influence politicians amid her family's ICC issues.
