1.) (a) CWG Format

CLAIM :

The court stressed that “double jeopardy is not triggered when the order of
acquittal is void.” “An acquittal rendered in grave abuse of discretion amounting to lack
or excess of jurisdiction does not really ‘acquit’ and therefore does not terminate the
case as there can be no double jeopardy based on void indictment.”

WARRANT:

Simply stated, a decision rendered with grave abuse of discretion amounts to

lack of jurisdiction..

GROUND:

Instant petition for certiorari is the correct remedy in seeking to annul Resolutions
of Sandiganbayan. Sandiganbayan committed grave abuse of discretion amounting to
lack or excess of jurisdiction in incorrectly ordering the quashal information against Diaz
based in the purported violation of his right to speedy disposition.

(b) FIR Format

Facts :

Instant petition for certiorari is the correct remedy in seeking to annul Resolutions
of Sandiganbayan. Sandiganbayan committed grave abuse of discretion amounting to
lack or excess of jurisdiction in incorrectly ordering the quashal information against Diaz
based in the purported violation of his right to speedy disposition.

Issue:

Ruling:

The court stressed that “double jeopardy is not triggered when the order of
acquittal is void.” “An acquittal rendered in grave abuse of discretion amounting to lack
or excess of jurisdiction does not really ‘acquit’ and therefore does not terminate the
case as there can be no double jeopardy based on void indictment.”
2.) Inductive Reasoning is useful in legal argumentation. Inductive reasoning allows you
to develop multiple approaches to one question and to use your work to test another
theory. This helps one to use information gained from past experiences to shape
conclusions and make decisions in new situations. It allows you to work with a wide
range of possibilities. The conclusions you draw from the evidence presented or from a
single set of data are virtually limitless.

3.) The class policy whereby every time the professor is forced to ask “why?”, a
randomly selected student will dance in front of the class, is correct, because, in this
way, some of the students are given the opportunity to showcase their talent. Also, they
are able to play with their creativity. With this kind of class policy, the students with the
professor may enjoy the duration of the class.

Bonus question:

I would argue against introducing your boyfriend/girlfriend to your spouse this

Valentine’s Day, because, it would be very tragic on the side of our spouse to know
something like that on this special day. I would say, you can reveal your secret any day
not just on Valentine’s day in order to lessen the tension a bit. It would be very unfair to
your spouse. It could also be an outcome where your spouse could hate Valentine’s
Day for the rest of his/her life.
