The impeachment complaint against VP Sara Duterte, if dismissed by the Senate without trial, will be challenged by the House prosecution team through a Supreme Court petition. A certiorari with mandamus will be filed to question the alleged abuse of discretion and to compel the Senate to proceed with the trial. A constitutional crisis could be triggered if the Court’s decision is defied by the Senate.
