[Title] => Resthouse arrest for Estrada
[Summary] => Detained former President Joseph Estrada scored a pair of legal victories at the Sandiganbayan yesterday.
Just hours after ruling that Estrada cannot be prosecuted for using the alias "Jose Velarde" to open a bank account, the anti-graft court granted his request for a "transfer of detention" — meaning his request to be detained in his resthouse in Tanay, Rizal.
In a 19-page resolution, Justices Minita Chico-Nazario, Edilberto Sandoval and Teresita Leonardo-de Castro acquitted Estrada of the charge that he illegally used the alias Jose Velarde to open an Equitable PCI Bank account in February 2000.

[Title] => Estrada trial resumes on July 12
[Summary] => Ousted President Joseph Estrada’s plunder trial is set to resume on Monday after the Sandiganbayan rejected yesterday a motion of defense lawyers to file a demurrer to evidence.
In a demurrer to evidence, a party waives his right to present evidence on grounds that the case against him cannot be prosecuted as it has no legal or factual basis.
The anti-graft court’s special division ruled that the defense had "merely rehashed" their arguments and raised no new issues.

[Title] => Erap complains of ‘zero sex life’
[Summary] => If having a bum knee won’t convince the anti-graft court to grant house arrest to jailed President Joseph Estrada, maybe a non-existent sex life would.
Estrada, 67, who has sired several children with at least three women, jokingly complained yesterday that his sex life is "zero" because the bungalow where he is detained in a police camp in Tanay, Rizal is "not conducive" to physical intimacy.
He said his resthouse across the camp, however, may just provide the kind of "ambience" he needs for reinvigorated sexual activity.

[Title] => Erap allowed to spend birthday at villa
[Summary] => In the "spirit of liberality," the Sandiganbayan granted late yesterday afternoon the request of detained former President Joseph Estrada to celebrate his 67th birthday at his resthouse in Tanay, Rizal, just across his detention quarters at Camp Capinpin.
In a two-page resolution, Justices Minita Chico-Nazario, Teresita Leonardo-de Castro and Francisco Villaruz said the request was also granted due to fears of Estrada’s police custodians that the military camp may not accommodate the hundreds of well-wishers.

[Title] => Erap’s P1-M bond no guarantee he will return — gov’t lawyers
[Summary] => It’s no guarantee.
Government prosecutors fear that ousted President Joseph Estrada could still evade prosecution, even if he posts a P1-million bond, if he is allowed to travel to the United States for knee surgery.
In seeking a reversal of the Sandiganbayan’s Dec. 23 ruling, special prosecutor Dennis Villa Ignacio said it was "too risky" for the court to have permitted Estrada to undergo surgery at Stanford Medical Center in Palo Alto, California.

[Title] => SC issues TRO on suspension of DPWH chief
[Summary] => The Sandiganbayan has held in abeyance its order suspending Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Secretary Florante Soriquez and four others over the P2.7-billion Pampanga megadike scam after the Supreme Court issued a temporary restraining order stopping the project’s implementation.
In a one-page resolution, the anti-graft court’s fifth division said the administrative sanction imposed on Soriquez and supervising engineers Rey David, Ulysis Maniago, Juan Gonzales and Gil Rivera is "held in abeyance until further orders from the Supreme Court."

[Title] => Estrada insists on X’mas, medical leave
[Summary] => A day after he asked the Sandiganbayan to allow him to spend the Christmas holiday with his 98-year-old mother, jailed former President Joseph Estrada begged the anti-graft court to allow him to undergo knee replacement surgery in the United States.
Estrada, who is detained at an Army training camp in Tanay, Rizal, complained of the pain caused by his knees and multiple slipped discs, which apparently caused the 66-year-old former president to have a fall recently.
