DOMINGO GELINDON v. JOSE DE LA RAMA AS PRESIDING JUDGE OF RTC

This case has been cited 1 times or more.

2012-06-27
BRION, J.
In Vergara, Sr. v. Judge Suelto,[112] the Court laid down the judicial policy expressly disallowing a direct recourse to this Court because it is a court of last resort. The Court stressed that "[w]here the issuance of an extraordinary writ is also within the competence of [another court], it [must be in that court] that the specific action for the writ's procurement must be presented." The rationale behind the policy arises from the necessity of preventing (i) inordinate demands upon the Court's time and attention which are better devoted to those matters within its exclusive jurisdiction, and (ii) further overcrowding of the Court's docket.[113]
