House Speaker Bojie Dy said in a statement Wednesday that the Justice panel “will proceed in accordance with the Constitution” in its impeachment proceedings following the non-issuance of a temporary restraining order (TRO) from the Supreme Court (SC).
Dy noted that Congress has the highest respect for the high court and its authority over matters raised before it.

The House Committee on Justice is set to conduct its second hearing on the determination of probable cause in the two impeachment complaints against Vice President Sara Duterte on 14 April.
