DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
The Philippine Department of Justice (Filipino: Kagawaran ng Katarungan, abbreviated
as DOJ) is the executive department of the Philippine government responsible for upholding
the rule of law in the Philippines. It is the government's principal law agency, serving as its
legal counsel and prosecution arm. It has its headquarters at the DOJ Building in Padre
Faura Street, Ermita, Manila.
The department is led by the Secretary of Justice, nominated by the President of the
Philippines and confirmed by the Commission on Appointments. The Secretary is a member
of the Cabinet. The current Secretary of Justice is Leila de Lima.
History
The Department of Justice traces its beginnings at the Revolutionary Assembly in Naic,
Cavite on April 17, 1897. The establishment of a regime of law was tasked to Don Severino
delas Alas who headed the Department of Grace and Justice. Shortly after the
proclamation of Independence in Kawit, Cavite on June 12, 1898, President Emilio
Aguinaldo issued a decree on September 26, 1898 reorganizing the Department.
A year later, the American military force established the Office of the Attorney of the
Supreme Court in place ofthe Department. On June ll, 1901, the new office was renamed
the Office of the Attorney General and on September 1, 1901, the Office became
the Department of Finance and Justice.
In the 1916 government reorganization, the Department became a separate entity and was
given executive supervision over all courts of first instance and other inferior courts.
Under the Japanese occupation, the Department was made a Commission. The civilian
government established by the Japanese in 1943 changed it to a Ministry. After the war in
1945, the Government of the Philippine Commonwealth was re-established and
the Department of Justice was re-activated. The Department continued in this form under
the Philippine Republic.
Presidential Decree No. 1 during Martial Law reorganized the Executive Branch of the
national government. Letter of Implementation No. 20 of December 31, 1972 organized the
Department proper into the Office of the Secretary, the Financial and Management Service,
the Administrative Service, Technical Staff, the Prosecution Staff, the Legal Staff and the
Judiciary Division; the Commission on Immigration and Deportation, the National Bureau of
Investigation, the Office of the Government Corporate Counsel; the Board of Pardons and
Parole; the Bureau of Prisons; and the Citizens Legal Assistance Office.
Under the 1973 Constitution, Department became a Ministry of Justice. The 1986 People
Power Revolution ushered in the contemporary Department of Justice.
With the adoption of the 1987 Constitution and the Administrative Code of 1987 (Executive
Order No. 292), the Department of Justice was named as the principal law agency of the
Republic of the Philippines serving as its legal counsel and prosecution arm.
Today, the DOJ continues to pursue its primary mission "To Uphold the Rule of Law" with
its "Justice for All" motto. The Office of the Secretary (OSEC) is composed of the National
Prosecution Service, the Legal Staff, the Administrative, Financial, Technical and Planning
and Management Services and the Board of Pardons and Parole. The constituent and
attached agencies include the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), Bureau of Immigration
(BI), Public Attomey’s Office (PAO), Office of the Solicitor General (OSG), Office of the
Government Corporate Counsel (OGCC), Bureau of Corrections (BuCOR), Parole and
Probation Administration (PPA), Presidential Commission on Good Government (PCGG)
and the Land Registration Authority (LRA).
Vision
A just and peaceful society anchored on the principles of transparency, accountability,
fairness and truth.
Mission
Towards the effective, efficient and equitable administration of justice.
Pledge
We undertake to provide every person equal access to justice, to faithfully safeguard
constitutional rights and to ensure that no one is deprived of due process of law.
Our commitment is to advocate for reforms in partnership with our stakeholders, to simplify
processes and re-engineer systems to best serve our constituents.
We shall work with honor and integrity for the institution, for God and country.
The Mandate of the Department of Justice
The Department of Justice (DOJ) derives its mandate primarily from the Administrative Code
of 1987 (Executive Order No. 292). It carries out this mandate through the Department
Proper and the Department's attached agencies under the direct control and supervision of
the Secretary of Justice.
Under EO 292, the DOJ is the government's principal law agency. As such, the DOJ serves
as the government's prosecution arm and administers the government's criminal justice
system by investigating crimes, prosecuting offenders and overseeing the correctional
system. The DOJ, through its attached offices, is also the government's legal counsel and
representative in litigations and proceedings requiring the services of a lawyer; implements
the Philippines' laws on the admission and stay of aliens within its territory; provides free
legal services to indigent Filipinos; and settles land disputes between and among small
landowners and indigenous cultural minorities.
Administration of the Criminal Justice System
The DOJ investigates the commission of crimes and prosecutes offenders through
the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) and the National Prosecution Service (NPS),
respectively. Likewise, the DOJ administers the probation and correction system of the
country through the Bureau of Corrections (BuCor), the Board of Pardons and Parole
(BPP) and the Parole and Probation Administration (PPA).
Legal Counsel of Government
The DOJ, through the Office of the Solicitor General (OSG) and the Office of the
Government Corporate Counsel (OGCC), acts as the legal representative of the
Government of the Philippines, its agencies and instrumentalities including government
owned and controlled corporations and their subsidiaries, officials and agents in any
proceeding, investigation or matter requiring the services of a lawyer.
EO 292 specifically designates the Secretary as Attorney-General and ex-officio legal
adviser of government-owned or controlled corporations (GOCC) and their subsidiaries. The
Secretary exercises administrative adjudicatory powers over all controversies
between/among government agencies, including government owned and controlled
corporations including their subsidiaries. This power of adjudication of the Secretary
originally stemmed fromPresidential Decree No. 242, and is now embodied in Sections 66
to 71, Chapter 14, Book IV of E.O. 292.
He is likewise empowered to act on all queries and/or requests for legal advice and guidance
from private parties and other officials and employees of the government.
Regulation of Immigration
The DOJ provides immigration and naturalization regulatory services and implements the
laws governing citizenship and the admission and stay of aliens through the Bureau of
Immigration (BI). Also, under Administrative Order No. 142 dated August 23, 1994, the
Secretary or his duly-authorized representative is authorized to act on immigration matters,
including waiver of visas and admission of aliens, except deportation matters.
Likewise, the DOJ, through the DOJ Refugee Processing Unit (DOJ-RPU), processes
applications for refugee status of persons pursuant to the obligations of the Philippines as
signatory to the 1951 Convention and 1967 Protocol relating to the Status of Refugees.
International Cooperation
The DOJ is the central authority of the Republic of the Philippines relative to extradition and
mutual legal assistance treaties (MLAT) on criminal matters and is involved in several
aspects of international cooperation such as the drafting and implementation of legislation
and agreements as well as the negotiation of extradition and MLAT. Moreover,
under Philippine Extradition Law (P.D. 1069), the DOJ handles requests for extradition
and/or mutual legal assistance and represents treaty partners in Philippine courts.
The Department is also involved in the negotiation of various investment and trade
agreements with other foreign countries. The Secretary is also the ex-officio Co-Vice
Chairman of the Commission on Maritime and Ocean Affairs (CMOA) pursuant to EO
612 and EO 612-A (2007), which is involved in the identification of the Philippine baselines
and in the preparation of the submission to the United Nations of the country's claim for
extended continental shelf.
Provision of Free Legal Assistance
The DOJ provides free legal assistance/representation to indigents and poor litigants in
criminal, civil, and labor cases, administrative and other quasi-judicial proceedings and non-
commercial disputes through the Public Attorney's Office (PAO).
Alternative Dispute Resolution
With regard to conciliation and mediation, the Alternative Dispute Resolution Act of 2004
(RA 9285) created theOffice for Alternative Dispute Resolution (OADR), which is an agency
attached to the DOJ and which is tasked to promote, develop and expand the use of
alternative dispute resolution in civil and commercial disputes.
DOJ functions under other laws:
In addition to performing its mandate under E.O. 292, the Department is significantly
involved in the implementation of the following penal, national security, and social welfare
laws:
The Human Security Act of 2007 (RA 9372) which created the and designated the
Secretary as ex-officio member thereof. Relative to this and under EO 292, the

Other tasks falling within the multifarious duties of the executive branch to administer the
laws devolve upon the Department through the Secretary, to wit:

III. The Nature of the Work in my Office
The nature of work in my office varies depending on the department and task
assigned to the said department, work could me ministerial, discretionary, or a mix of
both. The Office of the City Prosecutor is primarily involved in preliminary
investigations and prosecution of all cases involving penal laws but, there is a part of
the aforesaid office designated to release clearance (Fiscal’s clearance) upon the
request of applicants and receive cases being filed. Work in the clearance and
receiving department is purely ministerial in nature as the Office of the Prosecutor
has no choice but to grant the request for clearance of the applicants upon fulfillment
of the requirements as required by law; it involves no discretion. Likewise, the mailing
section of the office also performs ministerial functions as required by the law as
exemplified by the voluminous notices such as subpoenas that they have to send to
complainants and respondents. Meanwhile, a mix of ministerial and discretionary
functions are exercised by the main arm of the office, the prosecution arm. Ministerial
functions include administering oath of affiants and following the procedures provided
by law. The decision to file the information to the proper court upon determination of
a probable cause or to dismiss a case on the other hand, is both ministerial and
discretionary in nature.

B. Observation on the Rules and Regulations of the Office
For the Employees
There are a lot of rules and regulations governing the conduct of the
employees and the operation of the Department of Justice – National
Prosecution Service Office of the City Prosecutor Angeles City. The said
rules and regulations come from pertinent laws (e.g. the Anti-Red Tape
Act of 2007/R.A. 9485, R.A. 10071, R.A. 10535, etc.) and their
Implementing Rules and Regulations, Executive and Administrative
Orders, Memorandum Circulars from the Department of Justice,
Memorandum from the City Prosecutor, and other sources from
competent authority. I can say from my observation that the numerous
rules and regulations that apply to the employees are strictly being
followed in accordance with the law as failure to comply is on pain of an
administrative or criminal case. A concrete example is the strict
observance of the Anti-Red Tape Act of 2007 which requires front line
government offices not to cease operations during lunch time; the
employees keep on working even on what is supposed to be lunch time
and eat only when there are no applicants for clearance or when it is off
peak hours.
Time is of the essence – this is always the case in the office as the
Philippine Standard Time Act of 2013 is also strictly observed in the office.
Confidentiality is also very important in the office in crimes where minors
are involved.
When dealing with the aforesaid office, respect of the process is
incumbent upon the parties (the office and complainants or respondents).
Those are just examples of the rules and regulations strictly being
observed in our office as there are a lot more, rest assured that all the
others are also being complied with as mandated by law.
For the Student Trainees
Almost all the rules and regulations that apply to the employees apply
to the student trainees due to the nature of the job; the only difference
is that it is more lenient and considerate for the student trainees.
Student Trainees are also less liable since the relationship between
the office and the trainee is not of that a full-fledged employer-
employee relationship. Nevertheless, student trainees should exercise
their due diligence in respecting the rules and regulations of the said
office as criminal charges may also apply to them.

b. What reports are made by the department?
Reports made by the department include:
o Resolution – as the general prosecution arm of the government,
the DOJ-NPS is tasked to determine whether there is probable
cause, having been defined in Rudy Caballes versus Court of
Appeals as signifying “xxx a reasonable ground of suspicion
supported by circumstances sufficiently strong in themselves to
warrant a cautious man’s belief that the person accused is guilty of
the offense with which he is charged; or the existence of such
facts and circumstances which could lead a reasonably discreet
and prudent man to believe that an offense has been committed
xxx.” The resolution contains the facts of the case, whether there
is probable cause or not, its basis in law, and whether a case
would be filed with the court or be dismissed.
o Information – if a case has probable cause and should be filed with
the proper court, an Information would be the document to be
submitted to the court. It basically contains what it is called –
Information. Information about the case and the circumstances.
o Investigation Data Form – is a report about the circumstances of a
certain case that is usually accompanied by a complaint affidavit.
Investigation Data Forms ofrom the Office of the City Prosecutor
are commonly made when the inquest proceeding is made in the
said office; other investigating agencies also have like their
investigation data forms (e.g. National Bureau of Investigation,
Philippine National Police, etc.)
o Inventories and Dockets
o Other miscellaneous administrative and legal reports
c. What are the forms being used for the business transactions?
The Department of Justice National Prosecution Service Office of the
City Prosecutor Angeles City does not have business transactions per
se as it is not engaged in business for profit. The closest thing to what
is being asked is the application form for a clearance that will be
provided by the aforesaid office upon fulfillment of the requirements
which include payment of poll tax (Cedula) and payment on the
Metropolitan Trial Court Window 1. The form contains questions about
basic information like the applicant’s name, address, and purpose so
as to facilitate the verification process for the clearance faster and
more convenient.
d. Communications and Public Relations
1. Meeting the Public Person
The Office of the City Prosecutor commonly meets the people or
interacts with the public when they are conducting a Preliminary
Investigations and Inquest Proceedings. The Prosecutors themselves,
assisted by their respective secretaries are the ones conducting the
said proceedings. The aforesaid proceedings are held in the
Preliminary Investigation rooms of the office; there are 3 of such
rooms marked as P.I. Room A, B, and C. Furthermore, the
proceedings are generally open to the parties, sometimes open to
public, and are sometimes confidential depending on the nature of a
certain case.
Most of the time the Administrative aides are in the frontline as they
are the ones who interact, assist, and answer the queries of persons
who come in the office. There are also posters and streamers posted
outside of the office that communicate certain advocacies of the office
and the Department of Justice in general (e.g. Anti-Violence against
Women, Anti-Human Trafficking, etc.)
On the clearance and filing side of the office, they meet the public
person through a window wherein all the transactions between
applicants and people who file cases happen.
2. Meeting the Public by Telephone
The Office of the City Prosecutor does have several phone lines
depending on the department you are trying to contact but, these are
for general queries and correspondence with the prosecutors/officers
as most of the interaction/transaction between the office and the
parties require personal acts, meaning the parties must appear in
person as required by law (e.g. taking an oath)
e. Processing Incoming and Outgoing Mails/Documents
Considering the voluminous amount of mail sent and received by the
Office of the Prosecutor everyday, the office has a mailing department
whose function is to send mail including notices, subpoenas, and the
like and receive Registry Return Receipts and other pertinent
documents. The mailing department utilizes the Philippine Postal
Office and its own personnel to send mail. The personnel of the
department deliver the mail themselves when the recipient is within
Angeles City and nearby towns and utilize the services of the
Philippine Postal Office when sending mail to other places.
With regard to the documents of the office, they docket and inventory
documents pertaining to cases. The office has a number of rooms full
of documents and can even use a few more to store more incoming
documents as cases are being filed almost everyday. Documents
pertaining to unresolved and active cases are mostly stored in huge
cabinets near the cubicle of the Prosecutors and administrative aides.
f. Filing Systems and Procedure
The procedure in applying for a clearance is illustrated above. With regard to
the filing of criminal cases, the cases are filed in the same window/part of the
office responsible for releasing clearance. Those who file cases just need to
bring the complete requirements in the said window.
The cases filed are also docketed, inventoried, (e.g. NPS Docket No. III-01-
INV-13F-00540) and stored.
B. Office Equipment Operated

window 1
On the first day of my On the Job Training Experience, I was assigned to the
clearance department and operated a typewriter. The typewriter was used to fill up
pre-printed clearance with the information of the applicant. I had to be taught how to
use it at first since the last time that I utilized such equipment was way back when I
was a child. There were about three (3) computer units and one (1) typewriter
dedicated for clearance.
On the second day, I was assigned to be an aide to the secretaries of the
prosecutors; I utilized my own iPad and a small netbook at first to help me digest
cases.
The netbook of Fiscal Ronald Leo Haban was eventually assigned for my use. During
the duration of my OJT experience I was also able to operate a desktop computer
and a strike printer.
D. Duties and Responsibilities/Work Done
My primary responsibility in the office was to digest cases and prepare a resolution
for them subject to the approval and revision of my immediate supervisor. Digesting a
case involves summarizing the facts and faithfully representing contradictory
affidavits. It involves a lot of reading and comprehension. After establishing the facts,
a recommendation is made on whether there is probable cause and whether to file a
case, dismiss it, or file another case different from what is provided on the complaint
based on the pertinent provisions of law. It is a very rigorous task as you have to
read and understand the law and jurisprudence of the Supreme Court to be able to
apply it on a certain case at bar.
I was also initially assigned to the clearance department/section for a day and was
tasked to type in the information of the applicants in pre-printed clearance, verify the
said clearance, and finally release it to the applicant.
Occasionally, I organized some case documents and registry return receipts. I also
prepared and printed subpoenas.
Every Wednesday and from time to time on other days, I assisted in the Preliminary
Investigations of cases. It was also a duty of mine to run errands for my immediate
supervisors and other employees and assist them.

VI. Observed Organizational Values
Interpersonal Relationships
I was able to observe that there was a close family ties-like relationship
among them. They are basically a family. The people in the office are able
to work seriously and be humorous at the same time, there would always
be someone telling jokes and making other people laugh. The people in
the office are also very welcoming and they treat students having their
OJT as part of the family.
It was an atmosphere conducive for work due to the attitude and behavior
of the people in the office.
Working Relationships with Executives & Co-Workers
There is a certain degree of respect yet there is also a certain degree of
closeness. That is how I can describe the working relationship between
the Prosecutors, employees, and students in the office. Professionalism is
given, considering the nature of work and the rules and regulations
governing the conduct of all the people in the office.
Teamwork
Given that the relationship between the employees is like that of a family,
teamwork is assured. People in the office care for each other and help
one another complete their respective tasks even in their own little ways.
The solid teamwork in the office was exemplified by the Christmas party
competition. The Prosecutors, Employees, and Trainees were grouped
into teams who competed with each other for a prize. The teams did not
only work hard together in order to win but, they worked hard so that
everybody could have fun. Even though the there are different teams,
people in the office kept in mind that they are all actually on the same
team.
Quality of Service Delivered
The Quality of Service Delivered by the Office of the City Prosecutor is
guaranteed to be satisfactory as they adhere to International Standards
given their ISO certifications. It is also guaranteed by the degree of
competence of the employees and the Prosecutors.
Punctuality
Punctuality is valued in the office as a shining example of adherence to
the Philippine Standard Time Act of 2013. The office has a bundy clock
system wherein the punctuality of the employees is determined; the
attendance and punctuality of the employees affect their salary. Given
also that the Office of the City Prosecutor has frontline government
functions components, time is always of the essence and that the right
time (for operating/opening, closing, etc.) is strictly being followed. There
is however an exception, the Prosecutors given their busy schedule and
court hearings are at times not in sync with the schedule of the office.
Personal Grooming
There is no prescribed uniform for the employees of the office but, they
are always wearing something presentable (e.g. DOJ polo shirt) and
following the dress code of the Justice Hall because they are like a
representation of the organization when they face the public/people who
has affairs with the said office. Students who are having their OJT there
are also not required to wear anything in particular; they are only required
to adhere by the dress code.
VII. Problems Encountered During my Training and How I Solved Them.
The Schedule and the concept of studying and working at the same time
– Initially, I had a problem with the schedule considering that I have to
work from 8:00am-5:00pm and study from 6:00pm-9:00pm. I was able to
overcome this difficulty by efficient and effective time management.
A minor issue between some of our immediate supervisors
- The was a minor conflict between two (2) employees as regards to
petty matters which was immediately solved as they are mature
individuals. What we did was to distance ourselves from the issue and
remained professional to avoid being dragged into it and making it
worse.
Emotional Dissonance
- I had some problems concerning emotion, this as persons undergoing
preliminary investigation show a wide range of emotions. Some are even
going as far as kneeling and begging the other party to desist from the
complaint while sobbing in the presence of his/her child. It is very
emotionally taxing as it is but natural for a human to feel yet, one must
restrain emotions so as not to compromise judgment and logic, and one
must also stick with the facts and not the drama.
VIII. Recommendation/Feedback of the Student on the School’s Practicum Training
Program.
I recommend that the Practicum Coordinators take time to visit every student in their
workplace for the welfare thereof and so as the coordinators can determine whether
a certain workplace is safe and conducive for learning. Furthermore, I recommend
that the coordinators be more accessible and that there be better communication
lines between coordinators and students.
