Senado maaari magtipon bilang korte ng impeachment ngayong buwan

Maaari magtipon ang Senado bilang korte ng impeachment ngayong buwan at simulan ang buong pagsubok kay Bise Presidente Sara Duterte sa Hunyo, ayon kay Senate President Pro Tempore Panfilo Lacson. Batay ito sa posibleng timeline kung maaprubahan ng Kamara ang reklamo. Nag-aakusa ito ng maling paggamit ng confidential funds at iba pang paratang.

Sinabi ni Lacson sa radyo na kung maaprubahan ng Kamara ang reklamo sa plenaryo sa pagbabalik ng sesyon, maaaring magsimula ang pagsubok pagkatapos ng tatlong linggo mula sa paghahatid ng artikulo ng impeachment sa Senado.

Iginiit ni Senate President Vicente Sotto III na walang atraso sa pagbubukas ng korte, na alinsunod sa konstitusyon. Ayon kay Lacson, 'forthwith' ay nangangahulugang agad, bagaman may preliminary conference muna bago ang buong pagsubok. Naalala niya ang karanasan sa impeachment trial ni Chief Justice Renato Corona kung saan nagdulot ng kaguluhan ang hindi inaasahang saksi.

Maaaring huminto ang pagsubok kung maglabas ng temporary restraining order ang Supreme Court, pero patuloy ito kung wala, sabi ni Lacson. "Ang impeachment court ay co-equal branch, at hindi maapela ang desisyon nito sa Supreme Court," aniya.

Kung mag-resign si Duterte bago matapos ang pagsubok, maaaring ma-dismiss ang proseso, ayon kay Sotto, na maihahalintulad sa kaso ni dating Ombudsman Merceditas Gutierrez. Gayunpaman, sinabi ni abogado Lorna Kapunan na magpapatuloy ang pagsubok dahil sa posibleng perpetual disqualification.
