Fifteenth Congress
First Regular Session

HOUSE BLLNO.___2720

Introduced by the Honorable Janette L. Garin, M. D.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to provide an additional Regional Trial Court Branch for the First
District of Noilo to be stationed at the Municipality of Guimbal, Province of Iloilo and
appropriating funds thereof.

Fifteen (15) years had lapsed since the creation of the first Regional Trial Court
for the First District of lloilo covering the Municipalities of Guimbal , Tigbauan ,
Tubungan , Igbaras, Miag-ao and San Joaquin, by virtue of Republic Act No. 7154
adopted on September 14, 1994, which further amended Batas Pambansa Blg, 129.

Since the creation of the only Regional Trial Court, RTC Branch 67, the
population and the economic activities in the six (6) municipalities of the First District of
Iloilo increased substantially. Consequently, legal conflicts increased, leading to the
clogging of court dockets. This present state of affairs is sowing discontent among my
constituents. They clamor for an additional branch of Regional Trial Court to help:
expedite the decision of cases.

This bill is an answer to the growing demand for the immediate decision of cases
which presently clog court dockets and slow down the dispensation of justice in the area
Moreover, this bill adheres to the mandate of Section 16, Article Ill of the 1987
Philippine Constitution, to wit

“All persons shall have the right to a speedy disposition of
their cases before all judicial, quasi-judicial or
administrative bodies.”

Hence, approval of this bill is highly recommended.
