DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

The Philippine Department of Justice (Filipino: Kagawaran ng Katarungan, abbreviated as DOJ) is the executive department of the Philippine government responsible for upholding the rule of law in the Philippines. It is the government's principal law agency, serving as its legal counsel and prosecution arm. It has its headquarters at the DOJ Building in Padre Faura Street, Ermita, Manila. The department is led by the Secretary of Justice, nominated by the President of the Philippines and confirmed by the Commission on Appointments. The Secretary is a member of the Cabinet. The current Secretary of Justice is Leila de Lima. History The Department of Justice traces its beginnings at the Revolutionary Assembly in Naic, Cavite on April 17, 1897. The establishment of a regime of law was tasked to Don Severino delas Alas who headed the Department of Grace and Justice. Shortly after the proclamation of Independence in Kawit, Cavite on June 12, 1898, President Emilio Aguinaldo issued a decree on September 26, 1898 reorganizing the Department. A year later, the American military force established the Office of the Attorney of the Supreme Court in place ofthe Department. On June ll, 1901, the new office was renamed the Office of the Attorney General and on September 1, 1901, the Office became the Department of Finance and Justice.

In the 1916 government reorganization, the Department became a separate entity and was given executive supervision over all courts of first instance and other inferior courts. Under the Japanese occupation, the Department was made a Commission. The civilian government established by the Japanese in 1943 changed it to a Ministry. After the war in 1945, the Government of the Philippine Commonwealth was re-established and the Department of Justice was re-activated. The Department continued in this form under the Philippine Republic. Presidential Decree No. 1 during Martial Law reorganized the Executive Branch of the national government. Letter of Implementation No. 20 of December 31, 1972 organized the Department proper into the Office of the Secretary, the Financial and Management Service, the Administrative Service, Technical Staff, the Prosecution Staff, the Legal Staff and the Judiciary Division; the Commission on Immigration and Deportation, the National Bureau of Investigation, the Office of the Government Corporate Counsel; the Board of Pardons and Parole; the Bureau of Prisons; and the Citizens Legal Assistance Office. Under the 1973 Constitution, Department became a Ministry of Justice. The 1986 People Power Revolution ushered in the contemporary Department of Justice. With the adoption of the 1987 Constitution and the Administrative Code of 1987 (Executive Order No. 292), the Department of Justice was named as the principal law agency of the Republic of the Philippines serving as its legal counsel and prosecution arm. Today, the DOJ continues to pursue its primary mission "To Uphold the Rule of Law" with its "Justice for All" motto. The Office of the Secretary (OSEC) is composed of the National Prosecution Service, the Legal Staff, the Administrative, Financial, Technical and Planning and Management Services and the Board of Pardons and Parole. The constituent and attached agencies include the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), Bureau of Immigration (BI), Public Attomeys Office (PAO), Office of the Solicitor General (OSG), Office of the Government Corporate Counsel (OGCC), Bureau of Corrections (BuCOR), Parole and

Probation Administration (PPA), Presidential Commission on Good Government (PCGG) and the Land Registration Authority (LRA).

The Mandate of the Department of Justice The Department of Justice (DOJ) derives its mandate primarily from the Administrative Code of 1987 (Executive Order No. 292). It carries out this mandate through the Department Proper and the Department's attached agencies under the direct control and supervision of the Secretary of Justice. Under EO 292, the DOJ is the government's principal law agency. As such, the DOJ serves as the government's prosecution arm and administers the government's criminal justice system by investigating crimes, prosecuting offenders and overseeing the correctional system. The DOJ, through its attached offices, is also the government's legal counsel and

representative in litigations and proceedings requiring the services of a lawyer; implements the Philippines' laws on the admission and stay of aliens within its territory; provides free legal services to indigent Filipinos; and settles land disputes between and among small landowners and indigenous cultural minorities. Administration of the Criminal Justice System The DOJ investigates the commission of crimes and prosecutes offenders through the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) and the National Prosecution Service (NPS), respectively. Likewise, the DOJ administers the probation and correction system of the country through the Bureau of Corrections (BuCor), the Board of Pardons and Parole (BPP) and the Parole and Probation Administration (PPA). Legal Counsel of Government The DOJ, through the Office of the Solicitor General (OSG) and the Office of the Government Corporate Counsel (OGCC), acts as the legal representative of the Government of the Philippines, its agencies and instrumentalities including government owned and controlled corporations and their subsidiaries, officials and agents in any proceeding, investigation or matter requiring the services of a lawyer. EO 292 specifically designates the Secretary as Attorney-General and ex-officio legal adviser of government-owned or controlled corporations (GOCC) and their subsidiaries. The Secretary exercises administrative adjudicatory powers over all controversies

between/among government agencies, including government owned and controlled corporations including their subsidiaries. This power of adjudication of the Secretary originally stemmed fromPresidential Decree No. 242, and is now embodied in Sections 66 to 71, Chapter 14, Book IV of E.O. 292. He is likewise empowered to act on all queries and/or requests for legal advice and guidance from private parties and other officials and employees of the government.

Regulation of Immigration

The DOJ provides immigration and naturalization regulatory services and implements the laws governing citizenship and the admission and stay of aliens through the Bureau of Immigration (BI). Also, under Administrative Order No. 142 dated August 23, 1994, the Secretary or his duly-authorized representative is authorized to act on immigration matters, including waiver of visas and admission of aliens, except deportation matters.

Likewise, the DOJ, through the DOJ Refugee Processing Unit (DOJ-RPU), processes applications for refugee status of persons pursuant to the obligations of the Philippines as signatory to the 1951 Convention and 1967 Protocol relating to the Status of Refugees.

International Cooperation The DOJ is the central authority of the Republic of the Philippines relative to extradition and mutual legal assistance treaties (MLAT) on criminal matters and is involved in several aspects of international cooperation such as the drafting and implementation of legislation and agreements as well as the negotiation of extradition and MLAT. Moreover, under Philippine Extradition Law (P.D. 1069), the DOJ handles requests for extradition and/or mutual legal assistance and represents treaty partners in Philippine courts.

The Department is also involved in the negotiation of various investment and trade agreements with other foreign countries. The Secretary is also the ex-officio Co-Vice Chairman of the Commission on Maritime and Ocean Affairs (CMOA) pursuant to EO 612 and EO 612-A (2007), which is involved in the identification of the Philippine baselines and in the preparation of the submission to the United Nations of the country's claim for extended continental shelf.

Provision of Free Legal Assistance

The DOJ provides free legal assistance/representation to indigents and poor litigants in criminal, civil, and labor cases, administrative and other quasi-judicial proceedings and noncommercial disputes through the Public Attorney's Office (PAO).

Alternative Dispute Resolution With regard to conciliation and mediation, the Alternative Dispute Resolution Act of 2004 (RA 9285) created theOffice for Alternative Dispute Resolution (OADR), which is an agency attached to the DOJ and which is tasked to promote, develop and expand the use of alternative dispute resolution in civil and commercial disputes.

III. The Nature of the Work in my Office The nature of work in my office varies depending on the department and task assigned to the said department, work could me ministerial, discretionary, or a mix of both. The Office of the City Prosecutor is primarily involved in preliminary investigations and prosecution of all cases involving penal laws but, there is a part of the aforesaid office designated to release clearance (Fiscals clearance) upon the request of applicants and receive cases being filed. Work in the clearance and receiving department is purely ministerial in nature as the Office of the Prosecutor has no choice but to grant the request for clearance of the applicants upon fulfillment of the requirements as required by law; it involves no discretion. Likewise, the mailing section of the office also performs ministerial functions as required by the law as exemplified by the voluminous notices such as subpoenas that they have to send to complainants and respondents. Meanwhile, a mix of ministerial and discretionary functions are exercised by the main arm of the office, the prosecution arm. Ministerial functions include administering oath of affiants and following the procedures provided by law. The decision to file the information to the proper court upon determination of

a probable cause or to dismiss a case on the other hand, is both ministerial and discretionary in nature. IV. Getting Along on the Job A. New Friends I Acquired

B. Observation on the Rules and Regulations of the Office For the Employees

There are a lot of rules and regulations governing the conduct of the employees and the operation of the Department of Justice National Prosecution Service Office of the City Prosecutor Angeles City. The said rules and regulations come from pertinent laws (e.g. the Anti-Red Tape Act of 2007/R.A. 9485, R.A. 10071, R.A. 10535, etc.) and their Implementing Rules and Regulations, Executive and Administrative Orders, Memorandum Circulars from the Department of Justice, Memorandum from the City Prosecutor, and other sources from competent authority. I can say from my observation that the numerous rules and regulations that apply to the employees are strictly being followed in accordance with the law as failure to comply is on pain of an administrative or criminal case. A concrete example is the strict observance of the Anti-Red Tape Act of 2007 which requires front line government offices not to cease operations during lunch time; the employees keep on working even on what is supposed to be lunch time and eat only when there are no applicants for clearance or when it is off peak hours.

Time is of the essence this is always the case in the office as the Philippine Standard Time Act of 2013 is also strictly observed in the office. Confidentiality is also very important in the office in crimes where minors are involved.

When dealing with the aforesaid office, respect of the process is incumbent upon the parties (the office and complainants or respondents).

Those are just examples of the rules and regulations strictly being observed in our office as there are a lot more, rest assured that all the others are also being complied with as mandated by law.

For the Student Trainees

Almost all the rules and regulations that apply to the employees apply to the student trainees due to the nature of the job; the only difference is that it is more lenient and considerate for the student trainees. Student Trainees are also less liable since the relationship between the office and the trainee is not of that a full-fledged employeremployee relationship. Nevertheless, student trainees should exercise their due diligence in respecting the rules and regulations of the said office as criminal charges may also apply to them.

Other Personnel

b. What reports are made by the department? Reports made by the department include: o Resolution as the general prosecution arm of the government, the DOJ-NPS is tasked to determine whether there is probable cause, having been defined in Rudy Caballes versus Court of Appeals as signifying xxx a reasonable ground of suspicion supported by circumstances sufficiently strong in themselves to warrant a cautious mans belief that the person accused is guilty of the offense with which he is charged; or the existence of such facts and circumstances which could lead a reasonably discreet and prudent man to believe that an offense has been committed xxx. The resolution contains the facts of the case, whether there is probable cause or not, its basis in law, and whether a case would be filed with the court or be dismissed.

Information if a case has probable cause and should be filed with the proper court, an Information would be the document to be submitted to the court. It basically contains what it is called Information. Information about the case and the circumstances.

Investigation Data Form is a report about the circumstances of a certain case that is usually accompanied by a complaint affidavit. Investigation Data Forms ofrom the Office of the City Prosecutor are commonly made when the inquest proceeding is made in the said office; other investigating agencies also have like their

investigation data forms (e.g. National Bureau of Investigation, Philippine National Police, etc.)

Inventories and Dockets

Other miscellaneous administrative and legal reports

c. What are the forms being used for the business transactions? The Department of Justice National Prosecution Service Office of the City Prosecutor Angeles City does not have business transactions per se as it is not engaged in business for profit. The closest thing to what is being asked is the application form for a clearance that will be provided by the aforesaid office upon fulfillment of the requirements which include payment of poll tax (Cedula) and payment on the Metropolitan Trial Court Window 1. The form contains questions about basic information like the applicants name, address, and purpose so as to facilitate the verification process for the clearance faster and more convenient. d. Communications and Public Relations 1. Meeting the Public Person The Office of the City Prosecutor commonly meets the people or interacts with the public when they are conducting a Preliminary Investigations and Inquest Proceedings. The Prosecutors themselves, assisted by their respective secretaries are the ones conducting the said proceedings. The aforesaid proceedings are held in the Preliminary Investigation rooms of the office; there are 3 of such

rooms marked as P.I. Room A, B, and C. Furthermore, the proceedings are generally open to the parties, sometimes open to public, and are sometimes confidential depending on the nature of a certain case. Most of the time the Administrative aides are in the frontline as they are the ones who interact, assist, and answer the queries of persons who come in the office. There are also posters and streamers posted outside of the office that communicate certain advocacies of the office and the Department of Justice in general (e.g. Anti-Violence against Women, Anti-Human Trafficking, etc.) On the clearance and filing side of the office, they meet the public person through a window wherein all the transactions between applicants and people who file cases happen. 2. Meeting the Public by Telephone The Office of the City Prosecutor does have several phone lines depending on the department you are trying to contact but, these are for general queries and correspondence with the prosecutors/officers as most of the interaction/transaction between the office and the parties require personal acts, meaning the parties must appear in person as required by law (e.g. taking an oath) e. Processing Incoming and Outgoing Mails/Documents Considering the voluminous amount of mail sent and received by the Office of the Prosecutor everyday, the office has a mailing department whose function is to send mail including notices, subpoenas, and the like and receive Registry Return Receipts and other pertinent

documents. The mailing department utilizes the Philippine Postal Office and its own personnel to send mail. The personnel of the department deliver the mail themselves when the recipient is within Angeles City and nearby towns and utilize the services of the Philippine Postal Office when sending mail to other places. With regard to the documents of the office, they docket and inventory documents pertaining to cases. The office has a number of rooms full of documents and can even use a few more to store more incoming documents as cases are being filed almost everyday. Documents pertaining to unresolved and active cases are mostly stored in huge cabinets near the cubicle of the Prosecutors and administrative aides. f. Filing Systems and Procedure

Payment of Poll tax

Filling up of Application form

Waiting for Clearance to be verified

Receive Clearance

Proceed to MTC window 1

The procedure in applying for a clearance is illustrated above. With regard to the filing of criminal cases, the cases are filed in the same window/part of the office responsible for releasing clearance. Those who file cases just need to bring the complete requirements in the said window. The cases filed are also docketed, inventoried, (e.g. NPS Docket No. III-01INV-13F-00540) and stored. B. Office Equipment Operated

On the first day of my On the Job Training Experience, I was assigned to the clearance department and operated a typewriter. The typewriter was used to fill up pre-printed clearance with the information of the applicant. I had to be taught how to use it at first since the last time that I utilized such equipment was way back when I was a child. There were about three (3) computer units and one (1) typewriter dedicated for clearance. On the second day, I was assigned to be an aide to the secretaries of the prosecutors; I utilized my own iPad and a small netbook at first to help me digest cases. The netbook of Fiscal Ronald Leo Haban was eventually assigned for my use. During the duration of my OJT experience I was also able to operate a desktop computer and a strike printer. D. Duties and Responsibilities/Work Done My primary responsibility in the office was to digest cases and prepare a resolution for them subject to the approval and revision of my immediate supervisor. Digesting a case involves summarizing the facts and faithfully representing contradictory affidavits. It involves a lot of reading and comprehension. After establishing the facts, a recommendation is made on whether there is probable cause and whether to file a case, dismiss it, or file another case different from what is provided on the complaint based on the pertinent provisions of law. It is a very rigorous task as you have to read and understand the law and jurisprudence of the Supreme Court to be able to apply it on a certain case at bar. I was also initially assigned to the clearance department/section for a day and was tasked to type in the information of the applicants in pre-printed clearance, verify the said clearance, and finally release it to the applicant.

Occasionally, I organized some case documents and registry return receipts. I also prepared and printed subpoenas. Every Wednesday and from time to time on other days, I assisted in the Preliminary Investigations of cases. It was also a duty of mine to run errands for my immediate supervisors and other employees and assist them.

VI. Observed Organizational Values Interpersonal Relationships I was able to observe that there was a close family ties-like relationship among them. They are basically a family. The people in the office are able to work seriously and be humorous at the same time, there would always be someone telling jokes and making other people laugh. The people in the office are also very welcoming and they treat students having their OJT as part of the family. It was an atmosphere conducive for work due to the attitude and behavior of the people in the office. Working Relationships with Executives & Co-Workers There is a certain degree of respect yet there is also a certain degree of closeness. That is how I can describe the working relationship between the Prosecutors, employees, and students in the office. Professionalism is given, considering the nature of work and the rules and regulations governing the conduct of all the people in the office. Teamwork Given that the relationship between the employees is like that of a family, teamwork is assured. People in the office care for each other and help one another complete their respective tasks even in their own little ways. The solid teamwork in the office was exemplified by the Christmas party competition. The Prosecutors, Employees, and Trainees were grouped into teams who competed with each other for a prize. The teams did not only work hard together in order to win but, they worked hard so that everybody could have fun. Even though the there are different teams, people in the office kept in mind that they are all actually on the same team.

Quality of Service Delivered The Quality of Service Delivered by the Office of the City Prosecutor is guaranteed to be satisfactory as they adhere to International Standards given their ISO certifications. It is also guaranteed by the degree of competence of the employees and the Prosecutors.

Punctuality Punctuality is valued in the office as a shining example of adherence to the Philippine Standard Time Act of 2013. The office has a bundy clock system wherein the punctuality of the employees is determined; the attendance and punctuality of the employees affect their salary. Given also that the Office of the City Prosecutor has frontline government functions components, time is always of the essence and that the right time (for operating/opening, closing, etc.) is strictly being followed. There is however an exception, the Prosecutors given their busy schedule and court hearings are at times not in sync with the schedule of the office.

Personal Grooming There is no prescribed uniform for the employees of the office but, they are always wearing something presentable (e.g. DOJ polo shirt) and following the dress code of the Justice Hall because they are like a representation of the organization when they face the public/people who has affairs with the said office. Students who are having their OJT there are also not required to wear anything in particular; they are only required to adhere by the dress code.

VII. Problems Encountered During my Training and How I Solved Them. The Schedule and the concept of studying and working at the same time Initially, I had a problem with the schedule considering that I have to work from 8:00am-5:00pm and study from 6:00pm-9:00pm. I was able to overcome this difficulty by efficient and effective time management. A minor issue between some of our immediate supervisors The was a minor conflict between two (2) employees as regards to petty matters which was immediately solved as they are mature individuals. What we did was to distance ourselves from the issue and remained professional to avoid being dragged into it and making it worse. Emotional Dissonance - I had some problems concerning emotion, this as persons undergoing preliminary investigation show a wide range of emotions. Some are even going as far as kneeling and begging the other party to desist from the complaint while sobbing in the presence of his/her child. It is very emotionally taxing as it is but natural for a human to feel yet, one must restrain emotions so as not to compromise judgment and logic, and one must also stick with the facts and not the drama. VIII. Recommendation/Feedback of the Student on the Schools Practicum Training Program. I recommend that the Practicum Coordinators take time to visit every student in their workplace for the welfare thereof and so as the coordinators can determine whether a certain workplace is safe and conducive for learning. Furthermore, I recommend that the coordinators be more accessible and that there be better communication lines between coordinators and students.
