 Law Enforcement Administration
Law Enforcement Administration - the process involved in ensuring strict compliance,
proper obedience of laws and related statutes. Focuses on the policing process  or how law
enforcement agencies are organized and manage in order to achieve the goals of law enforcement
most effectively, efficiently and productively.

Law - the system of rules that a particular country or community recognizes as regulating the
actions of its members and may enforce by the imposition of penalties.

Enforcement - means to compel obedience to a law, regulation or command.

Administration - an organizational process concerned with theimplementation of objectives and


plans and internal operating efficiency. Connotes bureaucratic structure and behavior, relative
routine decision-making and maintenance of the internal order.

Sir Robert Peel - considered a "father of law enforcement".

Sir Robert Peels Nine Principles of Policing

1. The basic mission for which the police exist is to prevent crime and 
     disorder.

2. The ability of the police to perform their duties is dependent upon 


     public approval of police actions.

3. Police must secure the willing cooperation of the public in voluntary 


    observance of the law to be able to secure  and maintain the 
    respect of the public.
   
4. The degree of cooperation of the public that can be secured 
     diminishes proportionally to the necessity of the use
     of force.

5. Police seek and preserve public favor not by catering to public 


    opinion but by constantly demonstrating absolute  impartial
    service to the law.
 
6. Police use physical force to the extent necessary to secure 
    observance of the law or to restore order only when 
    the expertise of persuasion, advice and warning is found to be 
    insufficient.

7. Police at all time should maintain a relationship with the public that 


    gives reality to the historic tradition; the  police are the public and 
    the public are the police. The police being only full time individuals

18
    charged with the  duties that are incumbent on all of the citizens.

8. Police should always direct their actions strictly towards their 


   functions and never appear to usurp the powers  of the judiciary.

9. The test of police efficiency is  the absence of crime and disorder 
    not the visible evidence of police action in  dealing with it.

Administration of Police Organization


Police - one of the pillars of the criminal justice system that has the specific responsibility of
maintaining law and order and combating crime within the society.
         - comes from Latin "politia"-civil administration which itself derives from the ancient
Greek police "city"

Administration - an organizational process concerned with the implementation of objectives


and plans and internal operatingefficiency.

Organization - a group of persons working together for a common goal or objectives.

Police Organization - a group of trained personnel in the field of public safety administration
engaged in the achievement of goals and objectives that promotes the maintenance of peace and
order, protection of life and property, enforcement of the laws and the prevention of crimes.

Enforcement - means to compel obedience to a law, regulation or command.

Law Enforcement Agency - pertains to an organization responsible for enforcing the laws.

Objectives - refer to the purpose by which the organization was created. Refer to the goals of the
organization.

Supervision - means the act of watching over the work or tasks of the members of the
organization to ensure that desired results are achieved.

Management - the process of directing and facilitating the work of people organized in formal
groups in order to achieve objectives. Judicious or wise use of resources (manpower,
material,money,equipment,
supplies and time).

Hierarchy - represents the formal relationship among superiors and subordinates in any given
organization. Serves as the framework for the flow of authority downward and obedience
upward, through the department.

Authority - the right to command and control the behavior of employees in


lower positions within an organizational hierarchy. Must be viewed in terms of prescribed roles

19
rather than of individuals.
A particular position within the organization. Carries the same regardless of who occupies that
position.

Management/Administrative Functions
1. Planning
2. Organizing
3. Directing 
4. Controlling
5. staffing
6. Reporting
7. Budgeting

Principles of efficient Management

* Division of work - work specialization can increase 


   efficiency with the same amount of effort.

* Authority and Responsibility- authority  includes the 


   right to command and the power to require 
   obedience. One can not have authority without
   responsibility.

* Discipline - necessary for an organization to function 


   effectively, however, the state of the disciplinary
   process depends upon the quality of its leaders.

* Unity of Command - subordinate should receive 


   orders from one superior only.

* Scalar Chain - the hierarchy of authority is the order


   of ranks from the highest to the lowest levels of the 
   organization. Shows the vertical hierarchy of the
   organization which defines an unbroken chain of 
   units from top to bottom describing explicitly the
   flow of authority.

Organizational Units in the Police Organization

1. Functional Units
    
   Bureau - the largest organic functional unit within a
    large department; comprised of several divisions.

    Division - a primary subdivision of a bureau.

20
    Section - functional unit within a division that is
    necessary for specialization.

    Unit - functional group within a section or the


    smallest functional group within an organization.

2. Territorial Units 

    Post - a fixed point or location to which an officer is 


    assigned for duty.

    Route - a length of streets designated for patrol


    purpose, also called line beat.

    Beat - an area designed for patrol purposes 


    whether foot or motorized.

    Sector - an area containing two or more beat, 


    route or post.

    District - a geographical subdivision of a city for


    patrol purposes, usually with its own station.
 
    Area - a section or territorial division of a large city
    each comprised of designated districts.

EVOLUTION OF THE POLICING SYSTEM

ORIGIN OF THE WORD “POLICE”

POLITEIA – Greek word which means government of the city

POLITIA – Roman word which means condition of the state or government

POLICE – French word which was later adopted by the English language

THEORIES OF POLICE SERVICE


1.  HOME RULE THEORY
    - policemen are regarded as servants of the community, who rely 
    for the efficiency of their functions upon the express needs of 
    the people.
    - policemen are civil servants whose key duty is the
    preservation of public peace and security.
    
2. CONTINENTAL THEORY
    - policemen are regarded as state or servants of the

21
    higher authorities
    - the people have no share or have little participation
    with the duties nor connection with the police
    organization.

CONCEPTS OF POLICE SERVICE

1. OLD CONCEPT
    - police service gives the impression of being merely a
    suppressive machinery
    - this philosophy advocates that the measurement of
    police competence is the increasing number of arrests,
    throwing offenders in detention facilities rather than
    trying to prevent them from committing crimes
2. MODERN CONCEPT
    - regards police as the first line of defense of the
    criminal justice system, an organ of crime prevention
    - police efficiency is measured by the decreasing number
    of crimes
    - broadens police activities to cater to social services
    and has for its mission the welfare of the individual
    as well as that of the community in general.

EARLY POLICING SYSTEM

1. KIN POLICING
    - the family of the offended individual was expected to
    assume responsibility for justice
    - the family of the victim was allowed to exact
    vengeance
2. EGYPT
    - ancient rulers had elite unit to protect them
    - created the MEDJAYS, a form of police force whose
    duties include guarding of the tombs and apprehending
    thieves
    - introduced the use of dogs as guards and protectors.
3. ROME
    - created the first organized police force called
    VIGILES OF ROME, or VIGILES URBANI (watchmen of the
    city), which had the primary task of firefighting and
    policing
    - the Vigiles acted as night watch, apprehendinng
   thieves, keeping an eye out for burglars and hunting
   down runaway slaves, and were on occasion used to
   maintain order in the streets
    - the Vigiles dealt primarily with petty crimes and

22
    looked for disturbances of the peace while they
    patrolled the streets
    - created a special unit called PRAETORIAN GUARDS, a
    special force of guards used by Roman Emperors as the
    Emperors' personal guards
    - as personal guards of the Emperor, their primary duty
    was to protect the Emperor from assassination and
    other forms of attack against the Emperor.
4. ENGLAND
    a) FRANKPLEDGE SYSTEM/MUTUAL PLEDGE SYSTEM
    - required all males aged 12 and above to join a group
    of nine to form a TYTHING
    - members of the tything are called a TYTHINGMEN
    - a CONSTABLE served as a leader of ten tythings
    - the primary task of the things was to protect their
    village from thieves and animals
    - tythings were later organized into SHIRES
    - a shire was headed by a leader called SHIRE REEVE,
    which is the origin of the word “sheriff”
    - their duty was to apprehend offenders
    b) PARISH CONSTABLES
    - a parish official charged with controlling crimes
    - appointed to serve for one year
    - duties included organizing watchmen to guard the  
    gates
    - during trouble, the watchman would raise a “HUE AND
    CRY”, a call to arms where the rest of the parish
    would stop what they were doing and come to the aid   
    of the constable.

MODERN POLICING SYSTEM

        organized to arrest offenders.
      - organized by Henry Fielding, a magistrate in   
        London,in 1749 in London, England.
      - the name was adopted from the name of the street 
        where the office of Henry Fielding was located.
      - when Henry Fielding retired as magistrate, he was
        replaced by his blind brother, John Fielding
    b. METROPOLITAN POLICE OF ACT 1829

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE PHILIPPINE POLICING SYSTEM

The institution of police in the Philippines formally


started during the Spanish period. The establishment of
the police force was not entirely intended for crime
prevention nor peacekeeping. Rather, it was created as an
extension of the colonial military establishment.

Ancient Roots

The forerunner of the contemporary police system was the practice of barangay chieftains to
select 
able-bodied young men to protect their barangay
during the night and were not required to work
in the fields during daytime.Among the duties of
those selected were to protect the properties
of the people in the barangay and protect their
crops and livestock from wild animals.

Spanish Period

Carabineros de Seguridad Publica – organized in 1712 for the purpose of carrying the
regulations
of the Department of State; this was armed
and considered as the mounted police; years after, this kind of police organization discharged the
duties of a port, harbor and river police.

Guardrilleros/Cuardillo – this was a body of rural police by the Royal Decree of 18 January
1836, this decree provided that 5% of the
able-bodied male inhabitants of each province were to be enlisted in this police organization for
three years

Guardia Civil – this was created by a Royal Decree issued by the Crown on 12 February 1852

33
to partially relieve the Spanish Peninsular troops of
their work in policing towns,it consisted of a body
of Filipino policemen organized originally in each
of the provincial capitals of the central provinces
of Luzon under the Alcalde Mayor

American Period

The Americans established the United States Philippine


Commission headed by General Howard Taft as its first
governor-general. On January 9, 1901, the Metropolitan

 enacted on October 3, 1901

Executive Order 389 – ordered that the Philippine Constabulary be one of the four services
of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, enacted on
December 23, 1940.

Post-American Period

RA 4864 – otherwise known as the Police Professionalization Act of 1966, enacted on


September 8, 1966; created the Police Commission
(POLCOM) as a supervisory agency to oversee the
training and professionalization of the local
police forces under the Office of the President; later POLCOM was renamed into National
Police 
Commission (NAPOLCOM).

Martial Law Period

PD 765 – otherwise known as the Integration Act of 1975,enacted on August 8, 1975;

34
established the Integrated National Police (INP) 
composed of the Philippine Constabulary (PC)
as the nucleus and the integrated local police forces 
as components, under the Ministry of National
Defense
- transferred the NAPOLCOM from the Office of the
President to the Ministry of National Defense

supervision and direction over all INP units assigned within their locality; issued on July 10,

to design structures to resist potentially hostile acts.
                                 - a system of barriers placed between a potential intruder and the material or
installation to be protected.

Security - the predictable state or condition which is free from harm, injury, destruction,
intimidation or fear. Freedom from fear or danger or defense against crime.

Physical Security System - a barrier or system of barriers placed between the potential intruder
and the matter to be protected. Protective device against hazards, threats, vulnerability and risks.

Purpose/Goals of Physical security

1. deter potential intruders - ex. warning signs, perimeter markings


2. distinguish authorized from unauthorized people - ex. using pass card
3. delay or prevent intrusion attempt - ex. wall, door lock, safe
4. detect intrusion and monitor/record intruders - e. CCTV, intrusion alarm
5. trigger appropriate incident responses - ex. security guards

How to deter potential intruders

1. install warning signs - 
2. build fences
3. put vehicle barriers
4. install vehicle height restriction
5. implement restricted access point
6. install sight lighting and trenches

92
How to distinguish authorized from unauthorized people - access control at the

1. gates
2. doors
3. locks

How to detect intrusion

1. install alarms
2. install intrusion detection monitor 
3. install video monitoring system - ex. cctv

Principles of Physical Security


1. An intruder must be able to acquire access to the 
    property in order to benefit.
2. The type of access necessary will depend upon a 
    number of variable factors and therefore may be
    achieved in a number of ways.
3. There is no impenetrable barrier.
4. Security is built upon a system of defense in depth
    resulting to accumulated delay time which may lead
    to the apprehension of the intruder.
5. Each installation is different from the others.

2 Kinds of Barriers

93
1. Natural
2. Artificial

5 Types of Barriers

Perimeter Barrier - main purpose is to deny or impede access or exit of unauthorized persons.
Other Purposes
1. It defines the boundary of the property to be 
    secured.
2. It creates a physical and psychological deterrent
    to unauthorized entry.
3. It delays intrusion, thus facilitating apprehension 
    of intruders.

10.Guards 

Natural barriers or features - such as cliffs,ravines,and rivers which delay or make more
difficult to entry of intruders.

Barriers - any line of boundary and separation,natural or artificial,places,or serving as limitation


or obstruction.Anything that bars,keep out,obstruct progress,or prevents encroachment or
intrusion.

Structural barriers - features constructed by man regardless of their original intent that tends to
delay the intruder.ex.walls,ceilings,locks,safe,windows.

Human barriers - guards,charges of quarters,office personnel,shop workers etc. who stand


between the intruder and the matter to be protected.

Animal barriers - usually guard dog.ex. trained German shepherds used as guards,goose,and
turkeys can also be included.

Energy barriers - usually electrical or electronics devices used to provide assistance to guard
personnel.ex. protective lightnings,antiintrusion devices.

Full view fence - it is designed primarily to prevent physical access between two
areas.Constructed in such a way that visual access is permitted through the fence.

Physical Security Features:


1.Natural barriers - natural terrains features must be 
   considered from the stand point of their values to
   intruder as cover and concealment.Normally the 
   first type considered very often we have to accept
   and work around them.
2.Fences 
   a. solid fence - one is constructed in such a way that
       visual access through the fenced structure is
        denied.
   b. full view fence - constructed in such a way that

95
       usual access is permitted through the fence.

Advantages of a full view fence


1. removing patrols and stationary guards are able to
    keep area surrounding of the installation under
    observation.
2. it does not create shadows which would provide 
    cover and concealment for the intruder.

Disadvantages of a full view fence


1. It allows visual access to the installation,its 
    personnel,its guard and its activities.
2. It allows the intruders to become familiar with the 
    movements and the time schedule of the guard
    patrols thereafter allowing him to pick the time for
    attempting penetration which would most
    advantageous to the intruder.

Advantages of solid fence


1. Denies visual access of the installation of the 
    intruder.
2. Denies the opportunity for the intruder to become
    familiar with the personnel,activities and the time
    schedule of the movements of guards in the 
    installations.

Disadvantages of solid fence


1. It prevents the guards from observing the area
    around the installation.
2. It creates shadows which may be used by the
    intruder for cover and concealment.

Minimum acceptable requirements for fence used security barriers


1. Height - 8 feet at a minimum.
2. Slack at the bottom - not to exceed 2 inches.If the
    fences are not tight then it should extend even 
    closer to the ground.
3. Wooden fence post - minimum horizontal dimension
    of 4X4 inches.
4.Steel fence post - the round type should at least be
    2 inches at the smallest diameter.
5. Fence post - should be set in concrete or in firm 
    soil using commercial drive anchors to a depth of 3
    feet and the maximum distance post is 10 feet.
6. Fence top (Top Guard) - there should be something
    on the top of the fence to deter persons attempting

96
    to go over fence.ex.use of barb wire overhang.The
    arms holding the barbwire should be extended at 45
    degree angle in the direction of the expected 
    approach.
7. Fence area - it should be declared trees and
    vegetation  and debris of other materials which 
    would offer concealment of the intruder or would 
    aid him in scaling the fence.
8. Fence Gates - gates should be limited to the no.
    necessary for efficient and sage operation of the 
    installation.
9. Fence Opening - all opening in the fence in excess 
    of 96 inches must be locked barbed or screen in
    such a way that they may be interlocked  and
    opened from the inside  and only by selected 
    personnel.
10.Multiple fence - is used should at least be 10 feet 
    apart  and the overhang on the top of the inner 
    fence should point inward.

4 Basic functions that must be accomplished by the guard system


1. Detect intruders
2. Sound alarms
3. Apprehend unauthorized personnel
4. Identify authorized personnel

Personnel Control Identification


2 Types of identification
1. Personal Recognition - is the most effective
2. Artificial Identification - badges,passes etc.

System of Employment of Personnel Control Identification


1. Pass system - a method used by security to screen 
    visitors or person admitted into building premises.
2. Single pass or Badge system - the least expensive
    and the least secure.
3. Group pass and Badge system - one ID for one 
    group.
4. Multiple pass system - separate pass is required for
    access to various areas in need ex.color coding
5. Spot magnetized identification passes - a code may
    be placed in the device and when passes through a
    machine,the code on the device is read,if it contains
    wrong code or no code at all,it will alarm.
6. Access list - it contains the names of authorized 
    persons or personnel and is checked against 

97
    identification cards such as drivers licenses,draft
     registration etc.

Visitor control - the measures used would depend on the sensibility of the installation but could
include the following:
1. Escort - expensive but most secure 
2. Time traveled - if there is a long delay or time lapse 
    between the departure and arrival,the visitor may
    be required to show cause for the delay.
3. Visitors logs - should contain identifying data,
    reasons of visit,time in and hour etc.
4. Visitors entrances - separate access for visitors and
    separate for employees .

Utility and maintenance personnel - escort system could be used.If these people visit the
installations on a regular basis some of the systems previously could be used.

Package control - there should be provisions made to check packages being taken in and taken
out.

Photography - extreme caution must be exercised in areas where classified information is


displayed to preclude unauthorized taking of pictures of the installation.

Vehicular control and identification


* Most common identification is for registering at the headquarters or gates and putting of sticker
on the windows of the vehicles.
* For visitors,the following systems are used:
   1. Escort
   2. Driver pool - the most secure but the most 
       expensive.In this system,car is driven by qualified
       driver employed by the installation from the 
       entrance to its destination and after the  
       conclusion of the business of the visitor.car is 
       driven back to the installations entrance.
   3. Time travel - used in less sensitive installations

Criminal Procedure
Introduction:

Etymology:    Krimea [Greek]: meaning, “to charge a wrongdoing”

Criminal Procedure
The method prescribed by law for the apprehension and prosecution of persons accused of
any criminal offense, and their punishment, in case of conviction.

It is concerned with the procedural steps through which a criminal casepasses, commencing with
the initial investigation of a crime and concluding with the unconditional release of the offender. 

It is a generic term used to describe the network of laws and rules whichgovern the procedural
administration of criminal justice.

Criminal Jurisdiction
The authority to hear and decide a particular offense and impose punishment for it. It has three
requisites, namely:

Subject matter – cases of the general class where the proceedings in question belong as
determined by the nature of the offense and  by the penalty imposed by law;
Territory – the geographical limits of the territory over which the court presides and where
the offense was committed; and
Person of the accused – acquired thru: a) arrest [with warrant or warrantless] or b) voluntary
surrender.

176
I. Prosecution of Offenses

How instituted?
By filing the:    1) Complaint, or 2) Information.

Complaint
A sworn written statement charging a person with an offense
Executed and Subscribed by the O.P.A.O. [Offended Party, Any peace officer, or Other public
officer charged with the enforcement of the law violated].
May be filed in the prosecutors office or directly to the court

Information
1.An accusation in writing
2. Subscribed by the Prosecutor
3.Filed with the court

Both are:    
1. In writing
2. In the name of the People of the Philippines
3. Directed against all persons who appear to be responsible for theoffense involved. 

Elements of a complaint or information:


1. Formal elements, and 
2. Substantive elements.

It must be:   
1. Sufficient in form, and
2. Sufficient in substance

Thus, under Section 14, of Rule 110, a complaint or information may be amended, in form and in
substance .

A complaint or information is sufficient in form if it states: [N.D.A.N.A.P.]


1. The Name of the accused
2. The Designation of the offense given by the statute
3. The Acts or omissions complained of as constituting the offense
4.The Name of the offended party
5. The Approximate date of the commission of the offense
6. The Place where the offense was committed.

A complaint or information is sufficient in substance if it doesn’t contain any of the defects


which is a ground for a motion to quash. (Section 3, Rule 117) 

Note:    A motion to quash, once granted, is equivalent to dismissal (but not acquittal).

Remedy if a complaint or information is defective:

177
I. If defective in form 
   a) court may dismiss the complaint or information motu propio or upon motion, or
   b) accused may move for a BILL OF PARTICULARS
II. If defective in substance – No obligation is imposed on the judge to point out the
duplicitousness or other defect in the indictment on which an accused is being arraigned. It is for
the accused to move for a motion to quash on the ground that the complaint or information
charges more than one offense, under sanction of waiver and loss of ground of objection
(Concurring opinion of CJ Narvasa, People v. Bartulay, 192 SCRA 632)

Note:    For certain classes of Actions, it is the tribunal having jurisdiction which automatically
determines whether or not the papers are in order before giving it due course, meaning, it
satisfies itself if the complaint or information is sufficient in form and in substance.

Examples:
Articles of Impeachment in an impeachment proceedings
Presidential Election Protest

This is not so in criminal proceedings. It is incumbent upon the accused to object on substantive
defects (People v. Bartulay, supra).

Query:

JP was charged for indiscriminate firing. He claimed that he has to fire his gun in self-defense
because there was an actual threat on his person and the firing of warning shots was reasonably
necessary in order to prevent or repel the unlawful aggression directed against him. Despite this,
the fiscal went on to file the information in court. May JP claim that the information, though
sufficient in form, is defective in substance? Why?

No. JP cannot claim that the information is defective in substance. This is so because “self-
defense” is not a ground for a motion to quash but a matter of defense. If proven, self-defense is
a basis for acquittal, not dismissal.

Any explanation or defense which the defendant may want to invoke can be properly raised
during trial (Galvez v. CA, 237 SCRA 685).

Distinction between Acquittal and Dismissal:


1. Acquittal is based on MERITS of the case (substantive) ex: accused A was found innocent of
killing B.
2. Dismissal is based on TECHNICALITY (procedural) ex: the crime has already prescribed.

Notes:
1. There are certain classes of offenses that cannot be prosecuted de officio – 1private offenses,
i.e. adultery, concubinage, etc. and 2private libels, i.e. defamation imputing private offenses.
2.     For some offenses, there are conditions precedents before plaintiff can repair to the courts
for redress [i.e. those requiring mediation at the “lupong tagapamayapa”]. However, non-
compliance of this rule is not jurisdictional. The failure of the plaintiff to comply with the

178
conciliation requirement of Sec. 40 under the Local Government Code of 1991 does not affect
the Court’s jurisdiction if no timely objection is made [San Miguel Village School v. Pundogar,
173 SCRA 704, Bejar v. CA, 169 SCRA 566].
3.     All criminal actions, whether commenced by filing of complaint or information, are under
the direct control of the prosecutor.

Queries:

I. A, B, C, D were charged with homicide. Preliminary investigation was conducted by the fiscal
who found sufficient evidence against all, but, according to his determination, D was the least
guilty. So the fiscal filed the information only against A, B, and C leaving out D whom he would
utilize as state witness. Is the fiscal correct?

Under the Rules of Court, the fiscal cannot exclude D without court approval. It would be a
grave abuse of discretion on the part of the court in not including D in the information because of
the prosecutors finding that there is sufficient evidence against all. There was no more necessity
to utilize D as a state witness. 

Exeption:
Under the Witness Protection Act, the prosecutor has the discretion of discharging an accused as
a state witness and no court approval is necessary.

II. Is designation of the offense an essential element of the complaint or information? Why? Give
the exception, if any.

No. Because in case of conflict between the designation of the offense and the allegations, the
allegation prevails.

The exception is when the allegation is so ambiguous that it may be interpreted to mean either
one or another offense, then the designation of the offense is controlling (Case of US v. Dixon,
where the designation is for trespassing but the allegations indicates either trespassing or a
possible attempted rape).

II. Prosecution of Civil Action

Basis:
Art. 100, RPC - Every person criminally liable is also civilly liable 

Generally, when a person commits a crime, he offends two entities, namely:     
1) The State [whose laws he violated]; and                                 
2) The individual [whose person, right, honor, chastity, or property was actually or directly
injured or damaged by the same acts or omissions].

Exception:
When the infraction falls under the class of offenses called victimless crimes like gambling,
betting on illegal cock fights, drug addiction, prostitution, etc. etc. under the theory that “the

179
offender himself is his own victim”.

Sec. 1, Rule 111 - When a criminal action is instituted, the civil actionfor the recovery of civil
liability is deemed instituted with the criminal action unless the offended party:
Waives the civil action;
Reserves the right to institute it separately; or
Institutes the civil action prior to the criminal action

Principle of proferrence of criminal action over civil action:


After the criminal action has been commenced, the separate civil actionarising therefrom cannot
be instituted until final judgment has been entered in the criminal action.

If the criminal action is filed after the said civil action has already been instituted, the latter shall
be suspended in whatever stage it may be found before judgments on the merits xxx.

Reason for the rule: 


Criminal action is based on an offense committed against the laws of the State while civil action
is based on an injury to individual rights. Public interest is superior over private one.

Exception to the rule of proferrence of criminal action over civil action


When the independent Civil Action is based on Articles 32, 33, 34 and 2176 of the Civil Code.
When there is a prejudicial question in the civil case that must be decided first before the
criminal action can proceed because the decision in the civil action is vital to the judgment of the
criminal case.

Elements of Prejudicial Question:


The previously instituted civil action involves an issue similar or intimately related to the issue
raised in the subsequent criminal action, and
The resolution of such issue determines whether or not the criminal action may proceed.

Queries: 

1. Nobern married Armie on 2005. On 2006, Nobern married X. On 2007, Armie filed a criminal
case for bigamy against Nobern. On 2008, X filed a civil case for annulment against Nobern on
the ground that their marriage was void ab initio for having been contracted during the
subsistence of Nobern’s prior marriage to Armie without X knowing it.

Is there a prejudicial question? Why?

2. Nobern married Armie on 2005. On 2006, Nobern married X because X threatened to kill him
unless he marries X. On 2007, Nobern filed an annulment against X on the ground of threat and
intimidation. On 2008, Armie filed a criminal case for bigamy against Nobern upon learning of
Nobern’s marriage to X. 

Is there a prejudicial question? Why?

180
Note:
Prejudicial question is subject to the principle that he who comes into court must come with
clean hands. The accused cannot be permitted to use the law in order to frustrate the ends of
justice. Good faith or bad faith is important.

III. Preliminary Investigation

Defined
It is an inquiry or proceeding to determine whether there is sufficient ground to engender a well-
founded belief that a crime has been committed and the respondent is probably guilty thereof,
and should be held for trial.

When required?
Before the filing of complaint or information for an offense where the penalty prescribed by law
is imprisonment of at least 4 years, 2 months and 1 day, without regard to fine.

When NOT REQUIRED:


In cases where the penalty imposed by law is NOT at least 4 years, 2 month, & 1 day
In case of a valid warantless arrest [shall proceed in inquest]

Officers authorized to conduct PI


Provincial or City Prosecutors and their assistants;
National and Regional State Prosecutors; and
Other officers as may be authorized by law [COMELEC during Election Period, Ombudsman,
etc.]

Note: Effective 2004, judges of the lower court canno longer conduct Preliminary Investigations.

Rules:
1. The complaint must be sufficient in form [See notes in Prosecution of Offenses, supra]
2. Supported by affidavits of the complainant and his witnesses
3. Numbers of copies are proportionate to the number of respondents plus 2 official copies

1. Within 10 days after the filing, fiscal determines if there is prima facie case. If no – dismiss. If
yes – issue subpoenas.
2. Within 10 days after receipt of subpoena with the complaint and supporting affidavits and
documents – respondent submits counter affidavits.
3. In case respondent cannot be subpoenaed or does not submit counter affidavit within 10 days –
investigating officer resolves the complaint on the basis of evidence presented by complainant.

Clarificatory hearing – if there are facts and issues to be clarified from a party or witness - within
10 days after submission of counter affidavit. No direct examinations. Questions must be
addressed to the fiscal.

Resolution – within 10 days after the investigation. 

181
Forwarding of fiscals’ resolution to superiors – within 5 days
Superiors shall act on the resolution – within 10 days

IV. Arrest

Defined:
1. [Based on Rules of Court] The taking of a person in custody in order that he may be bound to
answer for the commission of an offense (Sec. 1, RRC)

2. [Based on Jurisprudence] A restraint on person, depriving one of his own will and liberty,
binding him to become obedient to the will of the law (Larrañaga v. CA, 92 SCAD 605)

How made:

As to the manner of enforcement, by:


    1) Actual restraint, or 
    2) Submission to the custody of the person making arrest 

As to the presence or absence of judicial order:


    1) By virtue of a warrant, or
    2) Warrantless arrest, in cases allowed by the Rules

As to the person arresting: 


    1) Arrest by peace officer, or
    2) Citizens arrest

When warrantless arrests allowed:

1. Inflagrante Delicto arrest – when in his presence, the person to be arrested has:

Committed
Is actually committing    an offense
Is attempting to commit

Translation: In flagrante delicto [latin] – Literally, “caught in the act of wrong”.

2. Hot Pursuit arrest – when an offense has Ajust been committed and Bhe has probable cause to
believe based on personal knowledge of facts or circumstances that the person arrested has
committed it.

Tests in determining probable cause based on personal knowledge:

Must be based on the senses, i.e.    1) Sight


                            2) Hearing
                            3) Smell

182
Notes: 
A. The arresting officer must have personal knowledge of the commission of the crime through
his senses.  He cannot “fish” for evidence first and afterward make the arrest.
B. The term “personal knowledge” excludes hearsay as a basis for probable cause.
C. There must first be a lawful arrest before any search may be conducted. The process cannot be
reversed (Dissent of Chief Justice A. Narvasa, People v. Malmstedt). Exception: in case of valid
warantless searches (Majority opinion, People v. Malmstedt, 198 SCRA 401).
D. For purposes of arrest – Officer may break into any building or enclosure where the person to
be arrested is or is reasonably believed to be, if he is refused admittance thereto, after
announcing his authority and purpose (Sec. 11, RRC).
E. For purposes of search and seizure – he cannot break into any building or enclosure without
violating the right of privacy. Exceptions: 1) When there is consent (Dissent of Justice I. Cruz,
People v. Evaristo, 216 SCRA 431). 2) When there is a warrant.

3. Arrest of fugitives from justice – persons who has escaped from a penal establishment, place
of confinement etc. while serving sentence, temporarily confined, or case is still pending – may
be arrested under the theory that “he is engaged in the commission of a continuing offense”
(Parulan v. Director of Prisons, 22 SCRA 639).

Methods of Arrest:

I. With warrant, by officer:

The officer shall inform the person of:    1) the cause of the arrest 
                                2) fact that warrant exist

Exception:    1) When he flees or forcibly resist before 1 & 2 is completed


        2) When the giving of info will imperil the arrest

II. Without warrant, by an officer and  by private persons:

Inform the person of    1) authority and cause of arrest [if person arresting is police officer] or 2)
intent to arrest and cause [if person arresting is private person]

Unless when the person to be arrested is either:


        1) Engaged in the commission of the offense
        2) Is pursued immediately after its commission
3) Has escaped, flees or forcibly resist before the officer or the        private person making the
arrest has the opportunity to inform him of 1 & 2, or
4) When the giving of info would imperil the arrest

Tests in determining lawfulness of USE OF LETHAL FORCE by the arresting officer:

1) Test of reasonability – conduct of the arresting officer is examined.


Where the precipitate action of the arresting officer resulted in the loss of a human life and there

183
exists no circumstances whatsoever justifying the shooting of a person who is asleep, even if he
is a notorious criminal – condemnation, and not condonation should be the rule (People v. Oanis,
74 Phil. 257).

2) Test of necessity – conduct of the person arrested is examined.


Where the arrested person attempts to flee, struck a policeman with his fists, draw a mess knife
and attacked another policeman, the arresting officer is not required to afford him a fair
opportunity for equal struggle. A police officer, in the performance of his duty, must stand his
ground and cannot, like private individual, take refuge in flight. His duty requires him to
overcome the offender (US v. Mojica, 42 Phil 784).

V. Bail 

Kinds of bail bonds:


1. cash bond
2. property bond
3. surety bond
4. recognizance

Defined:
The security given for the release of a person in custody of the law, furnished by him or a
bondsman, to guarantee his appearance before any court as required under the conditions of law.

Generally:
The right to bail only accrues when a person is under custody. Court must have jurisdiction over
the person of the accused either thru: 1) arrest, with or without warrant, or 2) voluntary
surrender.

Exception:
When the person under investigation cannot personally appear because he is hospitalized but
applies for bail through his counsel, he is deemed to be under the constructive custody of the law
(Dinapol v. Baldado, 225 SCRA 110, Paderanga v. CA, 247 SCRA 741).

Where to apply?
In the court where the case is pending (if not yet filed, may be filed before any court).

Conditions for bail:


See Sec. 2, Rule 114

Bail, a matter of right:


1. Before or after conviction by MTC, MTCC or MCTC
2. Before conviction by RTC of an offense not punishable by death, reclusion temporal, or life
imprisonment

Bail, a matter of discretion:

184
1. Upon conviction of RTC of an offense not punishable by death, reclusion perpetua, or life
imprisonment.
2. Before conviction for capital offenses [punishable by death], or an offense punishable by
reclusion perpetua or life imprisonment, when evidence of guilt is not strong. (Bail is neither a
matter of right nor a matter of discretion only in cases where the evidence of guilt is strong). 

Bail granted in capital offenses despite findings that evidence of guilt is strong (Cited in Cruz,
Constitutional Law, 2003 Ed.):
De la Rama v. Peoples Court, 77 Phil. 461 – accused was granted bail due to tuberculosis that
requires confinement to the hospital.
People v. Sison, GR 398, September 19, 1946 – humanitarian reasons considered by SC.

Notes:

1. The right to bail flows from the presumption of innocence. This is so because accusation is not
synonymous with guilt. 

2. In deportation proceedings, bail is not a matter of right but of discretion on the part of the
Commissioner of Immigration and Deportation (Harvey v. Defensor-Santiago, 162 SCRA 398).

3. Bail is not available to military facing court martial proceedings (Commendador v. De Villa,
200 SCRA 80).

4. I extradition proceedings, bail may be granted provided the accused undertake to submit
himself to the jurisdiction of the court and provided further that he is not a flight risk (Govt. of
Hong Kong v. Judge Olalia, 2007)

VI. Rights of the accused

Rights may be waived, unless the waiver is contrary to law, public order, public policy, morals,
or good customs or prejudicial to a third person with a right recognized by law (Art. 6, NCC).

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall be entitled to the following rights:

Key:    [PIPTEC CoSpA]

P – resumed innocent
I – nformed of the nature of the cause and accusation
P – resent in person and by counsel
T – estify in his own behalf
E – xempt from being compelled to be a witness against himself
C – onfront witnesses
C – ompulsory process to secure attendance of witnesses and production of other evidence
S – peedy, impartial and public trial
A – ppeal

185
1) To be presumed innocent until the contrary is proved beyond reasonable doubt.

Hierarchy of proof [according to degree of persuasiveness]:


Absolute certainty – ultimate truth [not required in any legal proceeding]
Moral certainty – passed the test of human experience [i.e., guilt beyond reasonable doubt,
conclusive presumptions]
Relative certainty – so called because a higher degree of proof exists [i.e., preponderance of
evidence, probable cause, substantial evidence, disputable or prima facie presumptions]

Notes:
The starting point is the presumption of innocence (See: Section 3, Par. (a), Rule 131, RRC)
It is incumbent upon the prosecution to demonstrate culpability. The burden of proof lies in the
prosecution. Unless guilt beyond reasonable doubt is established, the accused need not prove his
innocence.
Burden of proof – the duty of the affirmative to prove what it alleges. (Africa, The Art of
Argumentation and Debate).
Absolute certainty is not demanded by the law to convict but only moral certainty.

2) To be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation against him.

Essential to avoid surprise and to afford him the opportunity to prepare his defense accordingly.
Arraignment serves this purpose by informing him why the prosecuting arm of the state is
mobilized against him.
An accused cannot be convicted of an offense unless it is clearly charged in the compliant or
information. Basic rule – you cannot prove what you did not allege.

3) To be present and defend in person and by counsel at every stage of the proceedings, from
arraignment to promulgation of judgment.

Express or Implied waiver is renunciation to be present on that particular date only.


Escape of the accused is waiver by implication to be present on said date and all subsequent trial
dates. [Fact of escape made his failure unjustified because he has, by escaping, placed himself
beyond the pale and protection of the law (People v. Salas 143 SCRA 163, cited in Cruz,
Constitutional Law, 2003 Ed.)].
Right to counsel is right to effective counsel. It is not enough to simply appoint a counsel de
officio. Counsel must have no conflict of interest. Thus, a fiscal cannot be appointed as counsel
de officio. 
When an accused is represented by a fake lawyer who pretended to be a member of the bar, his
right to counsel is violated, unless the accused voluntarily chose him knowing him to be a non-
lawyer.

4) To testify as a witness in his own behalf but subject to cross-examination on matters covered
by direct examination. His silence shall not in any manner prejudice him.

186
5) To be exempt from being compelled to be a witness against himself.

Right to testify in his own behalf:


Once exercised, the accused is subject to limited cross-examination.
If not exercised, no inference of guilt can be derived from his silence alone.

Right against self incrimination:


Intended to shield the guilty & imprudent as well as the innocent & farsighted.
Based on public policy and humanity, otherwise, the accused will be placed on the strongest
temptation to commit perjury.

Notes: 
A. Prohibition covers 1testimonial compulsion and 2the production of the accused of
incriminating documents and articles demanded from him.
B. Does not include compulsion to 1submit fingerprints, 2photograph, 3blood or urine samples,
and 4others requiring a mere mechanical act on the part of the accused [Villaflor v. Summers, 41
Phil. 64, US v. Tan Teng, 23 Phil. 145, Schemerber v. California, US L.Ed. 2d 908, 89 S CT No.
658].

6) To confront and cross-examine the witnesses against him at the trial.

Reasons:
To meet the witness face to face (Bill of Rights, 1987 Constitution)
To enable the court to judge the truthfulness, deportment, and the appearance of the witness
while testifying (US v, Javier, 37 Phil 449).

Effect of absence of right to cross examine:


When there is express or implied waiver – no effect
In the absence of waiver – testimony of the witness cannot be considered as complete and
therefore cannot form part of the evidence against the accused.

Effect when witness dies:


Before he could take witness stand – inadmissible
After giving his direct testimony but before cross examination – Gen. rule: inadmissible.
Exception: where the adverse party was given adequate opportunity but failed to cross examine
due to his own fault
After the defense conducted cross examination – admissible

7) To have compulsory process issued to secure the attendance of witnesses and production of
other evidence in his behalf.

“Compulsory process” refers to the issuance of the court of:


Sub-poena – for the attendance of witnesses
Sub-poena duces tecum – for the production of documents

Notes:

187
A. If a sub-poena or sub-poena duces tecum is issued and the person named in the sub-poena
refuses to appear or refuses to produce the required documents without justifiable reasons – court
has the power to declare that person in contempt and may order his arrest. [People v. Montejo, 21
SCRA 722].

B. The coercive powers of the court must be employed in order to give meaning to this right.

8) To have speedy, impartial and public trial.

Speed:
Justice delayed is justice as denied

Impartiality:
Every party litigant is entitled to nothing less than the cold neutrality of an impartial court
(Macalintal v. Judge Teh, 280 SCRA 623).

Public trial:
So that the public may see that he is fairly dealt with and not unjustly condemned in case of
conviction.
So the public may know of the fact or the basis of his innocence in case of acquittal.

Note: “Public trial” and “Trial by publicity” are two different things. They are not the same.
There should be a public trial, not trial by publicity.

9) To appeal in all cases allowed and in the manner prescribed by law.

The right to appeal is a statutory right but withdrawal of this right, in the absence of a valid
waiver, constitutes a denial of due process guaranteed by the Constitution (Cruz, Constitutional
Law, 2003 Ed.).
It is not a natural right or inherent one. The party who seeks to avail of the said right must
comply with the requirements of the Rules. Otherwise, the right to appeal is lost (People v.
Sabellano, 198 SCRA 196)

VII. Arraignment and Plea


Arraignment:    The initial step in a criminal prosecution whereby the defendant is brought
before the court to hear the charges and to enter a plea (Black’s Law Dictionary).

Venue for Arraignment and Plea:


Before the court where the complaint or information was filed or is assigned for trial.

Purpose of arraignment [Key: FIG] (14 Am. Jur., p. 939, GV Jacinto, Crim. Proc.)

1) To fix the identity of the accused


2) To inform him of the charge
3) To give the accused an opportunity to plead

188
Note:
In order for the Court to “acquire” complete jurisdiction over the person of the accused,
arraignment is essential. Unless this procedure is completed, the court cannot commence trial in
absentia.

Procedure:
Arraignment must be made in open court by the judge or the clerk
Accused must be furnished with a copy of the complaint or information
Complaint or Information must be read in a language or dialect known to him
Accused must be present
Accused must personally enter his plea

I. If under preventive detention


Raffle of case and transmittal of records – within 3 days
Arraignment – within 10 days from the date of raffle
Pre trial conference – within 10 days after arraignment

II. If not under preventive detention


General rule – within 30 days from the date the court acquires jurisdiction
Exception – a shorter period is provided by special law or SC Circular

Rules in entering a plea:


If accused refuses to plead or makes a conditional plea – a plea of not guilty shall be entered
If accused enters a plea but presents exculpatory evidence – plea of guilty is withdrawn and a
plea of not guilty shall be entered for him. Burden of proof shifts.
If accused enters a plea to a capital offense – court shall conduct a searching inquiry into the
voluntariness and full comprehension of the consequences of his plea and shall require the
prosecution to prove his guilt and the precise degree of culpability.

Pre-trial Conference:
Private offended party shall be required to appear for purposes of:    
1)    Plea-bargaining
2)    Determination of civil liability
3)    Other matters requiring his presence

In case of failure of the offended party to appear despite due notice – conformity of prosecutor is
sufficient for purposes of pleading guilty to a lesser offense which is necessarily included in the
offense charged.

Bill of particulars:
The accused may, before arraignment, move for a bill of particulars to enable him properly to
plead and prepare for trial. The motion shall specify the alleged defects of the complaint or
information and the details desired.

Scope of the Bill of Particular: 


Bill of Particulars is a remedy for formal defects and not substantive defects.

189
The remedy against an indictment that fails to allege the time of the commission of the offense
with sufficient definition is a Motion for Bill of Particulars and not a Motion to Quash
(Rocaberte v. People, 192 SCRA 152). 

[See discussion in: Elements of Complaint and Information, remedy in case complaint or
information is defective, supra]

Modes of discovery:
Accused has a right against the suppression of evidence favorable to an accused which is
material as to 1) guilt, or 2) as to punishment (Webb v. De Leon, 247 SCRA 653).

Suppressed evidence must be of such nature as to affect the outcome of the trial (US v. Agurs,
US v. Bagley)

Notes:

1) Arraignment is important for notifying the accused of the cause he is required to meet. The
accused has the right to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation against him (Borja
v. Mendoza, 77 SCRA 422).

2) The existence of a plea is an essential requisite to double jeopardy (People v. Balicas)
