THE Sandiganbayan in separate resolutions has approved the plea of current Chief Presidential Legal Counsel Juan Ponce Enrile to file a demurer to evidence in the plunder case against him but denied the same motion filed by his former chief of staff, Jessica Lucila Reyes.
“The Motion for Leave to File Demurrer to Evidence filed before the Court by accused Juan Ponce Enrile, through counsel, on September 8, 2023, is granted,” a copy of the Third Division’s Minutes dated September 18 read. The court did not give any reason for the denial and merely gave Reyes five days to inform the court what she intended to do, giving her the option to still file a demurrer without leave of court “but subject to the legal consequence” under the Rules of Court.
