H. B. No. 613

Introduced by HONORABLE JUAN EDGARDO “SONNY” M. ANGARA

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Bill seeks to amend Section 14 Paragraphs (c) and (e) of Batas Pambansa Big
429, otherwise known as the Judiciary Reorganization Act of 1981, as amended, providing an
additional branch of the Regional Tnal Court in the Province of Aurora to be stationed at the
Municipality of Casiguran and transferring Province of Aurora from Fourth Judicial Regioa to
Third Judicial Region in accordance with Executive Order 103, otherwise known as Dividing
Region IV inte Region IV-A and Region IV-B, Transferring the Province of Aurora to Region lit

‘The province of Aurora has eight (8) municipalities. It has been observed that as
population increases, the number of cases being filed also increases. The existing two (2)
Branches of Regional Trial Courts in the Province are storing up piles of cases, hence, the
delays of Itigating a case before the sala af a Regional Trial Court, This would reasonably
imply that ‘justice delayed is justice denied”

‘Anicle Il, Section 16 of the 1987 Constitution mandates that: “All persons shall have the
‘fight to speedy disposition of the cases before all judicial, quasi-judicial or any administrative
bodies * Giving attention to this call is practically what every citizen in this country is airning for.

Providing an additional RTC branch in the Municipality of Casiguran will serve not only
its constituents but also the constituents from its neighboring towns. This will ikewise reduce
the number of case backlogs in the RTCs in Baler. In addition, the establishment of an RTC in
Casiguran wil clearty lessen the burden, both physically and financially, endured by people in
traveling long distance just to go to Baler for court hearings.

“The approval of this measure is earnestly sought in view of the foregoing premises.
