The House of Representatives is set to vote Monday on transmitting articles of impeachment against Vice President Sara Duterte to the Senate. Lawmakers and Senate leaders have traded statements on the process and related allegations.

The Supreme Court ruled that the Senate "acted in a timely manner" in handling the first impeachment case against Vice President Sara Duterte in 2025. In a 14-0-1 decision, the high court defined "forthwith" in the Constitution as "within a reasonable time." This clarifies the Senate's process for impeachment trials.

The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) has ordered Letters of Authority to audit the tax records of Vice President Sara Duterte, her husband Manases Carpio, and nine businesses linked to them. The move follows a determination of probable cause based on third-party data such as SALNs and AMLC reports. It adds pressure to her ongoing impeachment complaint over alleged misuse of public funds.

During its first public hearing on April 14, 2026, the House Committee on Justice issued a subpoena directing former Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV to testify and submit documents in the impeachment probe against Vice President Sara Duterte. The move came amid testimony from self-confessed bagman Ramil Madriaga detailing rapid spending of confidential funds, with the Commission on Audit affirming a P73.287 million disallowance on Office of the Vice President (OVP) expenditures.
