  • Disregarding the Rule of Law in Estrada V
    LEGITIMIZING THE ILLEGITIMATE: DISREGARDING THE RULE OF LAW IN ESTRADA V. DESIERTO * AND ESTRADA V. MACAPAGAL-ARROYO * SABRINA M. QUERUBIN ANA RHIA T. MUHI CHARISSE F. GONZALES-OLALIA “Lust of power is the most flagrant of all passions.” - Tacitus1 They say history repeats itself. But it does so in ironic ways. In 1986, the world became witness to a bloodless revolution, where the outraged Filipinos took to the streets and faced the military might of an overstaying President. The EDSA2 People Power Revolution became a part of Philippine history. In 2001, EDSA again became the site of mass protests, this time leading to the downfall of an elected President accused of corruption, ineptitude and immorality, barely half into his legal term. Like its predecessor, People Power II will also be forever a marker in Philippine history. However, unlike its predecessor, People Power II was barely bloodless and definitely not a revolution.3 In 1986, Supreme Court Chief Justice Claudio Teehankee administered the oath as President to Corazon Cojuangco Aquino as revolutionary successor of Ferdinand Edralin Marcos. The oath taking was met with much celebration, as it symbolized hope and freedom from tyranny for the Filipinos. In 2001, Supreme Court Chief Justice Hilario Davide, Jr. * Submitted as one of the entries to the Irene Cortes Award for Best Paper in Constitutional Law on 24 March 2003 at the UP College of Law. * The authors graduated from the UP College of Law in April 2003.
