                    [Title] => Erap wants Davide summoned as his witness
                    [Summary] => Lawyers of ousted President Joseph Estrada asked the Sandiganbayan yesterday to summon retired Chief Justice Hilario Davide Jr. to testify on the defense argument that Estrada was prematurely deprived of his immunity from suit.


Former senator Rene Saguisag, Estrada’s lead counsel, said Davide would be asked to confirm that on Jan. 20, 2001 he and his successor, Chief Justice Artemio Panganiban, had decided to swear in Mrs. Arroyo as president although Estrada was still in Malacañang.

                    [Summary] => Ousted President Joseph Estrada said yesterday he had no chance of a fair trial on corruption and perjury charges, prompting the court to offer to "swear on a pile of bibles" that it was aboveboard.


"I believe that this court was designed and created to convict me," the former matinee idol told the packed court which was guarded by 1,000 policemen in full riot gear.


"I am just leaving my fate to God and to our people."

Veteran broadcast journalist Noli de Castro, an independent candidate, was still on top with 63 percent, an 18 percent advantage over the second placer, re-electionist Juan Flavier of the ruling People Power Coalition (PPC).
