The Philippine Legal System is a unique blend of civil law (Roman), common law (Anglo-American), muslim (Islamic) and indigenous law. Laws and jurisprudence since the first Philippine Republic are applicable until they are repealed or superceded. The increasing numbers of laws and jurisprudence are found in books (reference materials, treatises, commentaries and annotations) and electronic resources. There is thus a need for those in search of Philippine legal information and materials to know what are these materials and where they be obtained.

In law, these latest legal information/materials must be readily available not only to the legal profession but to the public as well. Electronic resources are the answer to:

a. The need for complete and up-to-date (or the latest) legal information. Publishing or printing of books in the Philippines take time. The primary sources for laws and jurisprudence (case law) are published by the Philippines’ National Printing Office. To remedy the slow publication of jurisprudence (case law), the printing and publication of the Philippine Reports (compilation of Supreme Court decision) was transferred tot the Supreme Court in 1983. On the other hand for laws, Executive Order No. 200 s. 1986 promulgated by President Corazon C. Aquino on June 18, 1987. This Executive Order amended Article 2 of the Civil Code which provides that “laws shall take effect after fifteen days following the completion of their publication in the Official Gazette.” With Executive Order No. 200, “Laws shall take effect fifteen days following the completion of their publication in the Official Gazette or in a newspaper of General Circulation. The Official Gazette is published by the National Printing Office which makes it as a primary source.

b. Lack of the complete and up-to-date research tool (indexes, citatory, digest) for both laws and jurisprudence.

c. Laws and jurisprudence in force in the early 1900s and are still considered as good law are already too fragile. Publishing books in electronic from has started.

The books and electronic sources are regularly updated. In this regard, only the latest edition of books and those published from 1990’s to the latest are included. Those with asterisk (*) mark are available from the Philippine publishers (C). Books older than the 1990’s are included were written by Philippine legal authorities or legal luminaries and/or important laws and issuances.

Considering all the sources of Philippine legal information from the 1900s to present, uniform standard of Philippine citation is needed for clarity, and consistency. Each individual has his own style and preference in legal research and writing.

There are available manuals of legal citation as a guide in citing Philippine legal information namely:

  • The University of the Philippines’ Philippine Manual of Legal Citations by Myrna S. Feliciano (5th ed. 1999)
  • Supreme Court’s Manual of Judicial Writing (2005).
  • Ateneo De Manila School of Law through its Ateneo Law Journal came out with its version of the Legal Citation Primer (2008) 33p.

The legal citation provided below took into consideration the complexity of Philippine legal information and a standard for to conform to both international and Philippine citations.

Sources of Law

  • Statutes

a.1. Constitution

Cited by reference to the article, section and the paragraph. For both manual, the year is placed in parenthesis when the Constitution is no longer in force.

Example:

Const. (1935), Art. VIII, Sec. 1

Const. (1973), Art. X, Sec. 1

Const, (1987)Art. VIII, Sec. 1

Other legal citations provide that when the current law is cited, the date is not included. Taking into consideration the number of times the Philippine Constitution was revised, it is important to include the date. At present, there is a move to revised again the Philippine Constitution either through a Constitutional Convention (Con-Com) or a Constitutional Assembly (Con-Ass)
