This case has been cited 3 times or more.

	GR No. 176405 2008-08-20	LEO WEE v. GEORGE DE CASTRO CHICO-NAZARIO, J.
The barangay justice system was established primarily as a means of easing up the congestion of cases in the judicial courts. This could be accomplished through a proceeding before the barangay courts which, according to the one who conceived of the system, the late Chief Justice Fred Ruiz Castro, is essentially arbitration in character; and to make it truly effective, it should also be compulsory. With this primary objective of the barangay justice system in mind, it would be wholly in keeping with the underlying philosophy of Presidential Decree No. 1508 (Katarungang Pambarangay Law), which would be better served if an out-of-court settlement of the case is reached voluntarily by the parties.[16] To ensure this objective, Section 6 of Presidential Decree No. 1508 requires the parties to undergo a conciliation process before the Lupon Chairman or the Pangkat ng Tagapagkasundo as a precondition to filing a complaint in court subject to certain exceptions. The said section has been declared compulsory in nature.[17]
