OFFICE OF THE COURT OF ADMINISTRATOR
| TO : |
ALL JUSTICES OF THE SANDIGANBAYAN, JUDGES OF THE REGIONAL
TRIAL COURTS, SHARI’A DISTRICT COURTS, METROPOLITAN TRIAL COURTS, MUNICIPAL TRIAL COURT IN CITIES, MUNICIPAL TRIAL COURTS, SHARI’A CIRCUIT COURTS AND MUNICIPAL CIRCUIT TRIAL COURTS. |
| SUBJECT: | ISSUANCE OF COURT PROCESSES RELATIVE RECORDS ON FIREARMS AND EXPLOSIVES |
PNP Director General Recaredo A. Sarmiento II has brought to this
Court’s attention the present practice of courts in issuing summonses
and other processes addressed to the Chief of the Firearms and
Explosives Division whereas the information sought to be obtained is
under the immediate custody of the Chief of the Records Branch of the
Firearms and Explosives Division.
Considering that it is the personnel of the Records Branch that
invariably attend court hearings to testify on whether a person is a
licensed firearm holder and other related matters, all summonses and
processes seeking to establish official records or information regarding
firearms and explosives shall be addressed to “The Chief, Records
Branch, Firearms and Explosives Division.”
Please be guided accordingly.
