The Philippine Criminal Justice System: Do we have enough judges to act on filed cases?

Beyond the Numbers
The Philippine Criminal Justice System: 
Do we have enough judges to act on filed cases?

 

by Jose Ramon G. Albert, Ph.D.
(Posted 14 June 2013)

 

In 2012, the annual cost of maintaining each prisoner in the country (as per the 2012 General Appropriations Act), is P19,345. This cost per inmate includes food and medicine allowance, and is much higher than the maximum assistance provided to a poor family at P15,000 per year under the conditional cash transfer (CCT)  program of the government.  The cost in one semester (P9,672.50)  slightly exceeds  the 2012  first semester per capita poverty threshold  pegged at  P9,385 thus making prisoners even non-poor  by definition.
