0:00 35:07

In graft cases, under what circumstances can shortcuts in public procurement or government procurements without public bidding be deemed justified, potentially leading to an acquittal?

Listen to the latest episode of the Supreme Court Podcast with guest Sandiganbayan Justice Michael Frederick L. Musngi, who served as Bar Examiner in Remedial Law in 2022.

Supreme Court Chief Communications Officer Atty. Mike Navallo and Justice Musngi revisit the issue of procurement in government transactions and explore the circumstances under which shortcuts in public procurement may be considered within the context of the consolidated cases of Richard T. Martel et al. v. People of the Philippines, GR No. 224720-23, and Benjamin P. Bautista Jr. v. People of the Philippines, GR No. 224765-68, penned by Supreme Court Associate Justice Alfredo Benjamin S. Caguioa, decided on February 2, 2021.
