BAIL PROCESS PHILIPPINES / PYANSA

Application not a bar to objections in illegal arrest, lack of or irregular preliminary investigation.

(1) The posting of the bail does not constitute a waiver of any question on the irregularity attending the arrest of person. He can still question the same before arraignment, otherwise, the right to question it is deemed waived. It was also said that posting bail is deemed to be a forfeiture of a habeas corpus petition which becomes moot and academic (Arriba vs. People. `07 SCRA 191; Bagcal vs. Villaroza, 120 SCRA 525).

(2)An application for or admission to bail shall not bar the accused from challenging the validity of his arrest or the legality of the warrant issued therefore, or from assailing the regularity or questioning the absence of a preliminary investigation of the charge against him, provided that he raises them before entering his plea. The court shall resolve the matter as early as practicable but not later than the start of the trial of the case (Sec. 26).

(3)The arraignment of an accused is not a prerequisite to the conduct of hearings on his petition for bail. A person is allowed to petition for bail as soon as he is deprived of his liberty by virtue of his arrest or voluntary surrender (Mendoza vs. CFI of Quezon, 51 SCAD 369). an accused need not wait for his arraignment before filing a petition for bail. In Lavides vs. CA, 324 SCRA 321, it was held that in cases where it is authorized, bail should be granted before arraignment, otherwise the accused may be precluded from filing a motion to quash. This pronouncement should be understood in the light of the fact that the accused in said case filed a petition for bail as well as a motion to quash the information filed against him. It was explained that to condition the grant of bail to an accused on his arraignment would be to place him in a position where he has to choose between: (1) filing a motion to quash and thus delay his release on bail because until his motion to quash can be resolved, his arraignment cannot be held; and (2) foregoing the filing of a motion to quash so that he can be arraigned at once and thereafter be released on bail. This would undermine his constitutional right not to be put on trial except upon a valid complaint or information sufficient to charge him with a crime and his right to bail. It is therefore not necessary that an accused be first arraigned before the conduct of hearings on his application for bail. For when bail is a matter of right, an accused may apply for and be granted bail even prior to arraignment (Serapio vs. Sandiganbayan, GR Nos. 148468-69, 149116, Jan. 28, 2003).

• The Supreme Court has held that in cases where it was authorized, bail should be granted before arraignment, otherwise, the accused may be hindered from filing a motion to quash since his arraignment may be deferred pending resolution of the motion to quash.

[ABOGADANGBAYAN]

The person seeking provisional release need not wait for a formal complaint or information to be filed against him as it is available to all persons where the offense is bailable, so long as the applicant is in the custody of the law (Paderanga vs. CA, 247 SCRA 741).

Hi! 5'11 po kaso ng partner ko, no bail for both. Planted evidence nya sa section 11 which is 9.08 hindi talaga sya na kunan and nung time na dinampot sya sa bahay nila narinig ng mother nya na sabi ng pulis "negative sir wala talaga" so missing sya for 3 days I had proof na 26 sya nawala cos i had records of blotter and text messages from police po na nag aask ako ng updates. Nasa info is march 29 2021 at 3pm sya kinuha, pero reality nawala na sya march 26 2am yun meron din ako proofs po. Also, he was missing 3 days and nung nakita ko sya wala na syang damit he was only wearing boxer briefs, i cannot forget about this. Is there any chance na maka bail or ma dismiss? Tinuro sya ng pinsan ko, tas yung pinsan ko lng yung may bail. NEGATIVE SA DRUG test partner ko
