The PAFI Foundation has asked the court to declare Sarraga Integrated and Management Corporation and the Cebu CFI Community Cooperative in default after they allegedly failed to file an answer to the amended petition for injunction the former has filed to protect its management contract over Bantay Radyo.

I must confess I can’t quite figure out what the political opposition’s game plan could be for the second impeachment complaint.


To begin with, the numbers still don’t appear to be with the pro-impeachment forces. Twenty-nine congressmen are listed as "co-complainants" in this "Amended Complaint." But I recognize at least three names that I am fairly certain have not signed, and do not intend to sign, the complaint.

A definitive ruling on the issues raised therein would certainly go a long way in preventing a repetition of the tumultuous process that occurred during the last impeachment hearing that was characterized by sharp differences of opinion on apparently clear and simple rules.

I’m sure the President would want any cloud over her tenure to be removed by the time she makes the rounds of cocktail parties in the Big Apple. But since her departure is a scant few weeks away, the chances of a resolution by then are either slim or none.
