House Bill No.

Introduced by HON. NELSON P. COLLANTES:

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to provide for the creation of an additiona’ branch of Regional Trial Court
in Tanauan City, Batangas.

tt is said that “Justice delayed is justice denied”. The 1987-Philippine Constitution states
that “All persons shall have the right to a speedy disposition of their cases before all judicial,
quasi-judicial or administrative bodies”. Due to the voluminous number of cases filed with the
Regional Trial Courts of Tanauan City, Batangas, Justice is dispensed at a very slow rate. There is
an undue delay in the disposition of cases.

At present, there are only two (2) branches of the Regional Trial Court of Tanauan City,
namely branches Vi and LXXXIII, Under Section 14, paragraph e of Batas Pambansa 129, it is
‘explicitly stated that there should be three (3) branches of the Regional Trial Court of Tanauan
Oty.

In view of the foregoing considerations, the approval of the bill Is strongly
recommended.
