“The CIDG reported that the Yanson four went abroad. In other words, that obviously means that they are aware of the issuance of the warrant against them,” Llena said.issued by Judge Abraham Bayona against the Yanson four were issued on March 10 after the court found probable cause and ordered the issuance of the warrants., which is estimated to have at least 4,800 buses in its fleet and 18,000 employees nationwide.
“As a lawyer, I have been closely monitoring the case and check on the records of the court which should also be the role of their lawyers,” Llena said. The lawyer argued that the Yanson four’s Motion to Suspend Proceedings and Hold in Abeyance Issuance of Warrant filed on March 9 was already “moot,” saying that the warrant had already been issued.He added that the hearing was postponed on March 17 as Bacolod was placed under enhanced community quarantine.Leo Rey’s lawyer also said that the Yanson four’s counsel, Shiela Sison, did not take time to argue with him, adding that she insisted to have him disqualified.
“I mentioned that there was already an order and their motion was already moot but she did not listen to me. I asked her, you’re asking for the affirmative relief for you clients? That’s elementary in the rules of procedure that before court could act on the your motion the court has to acquire jurisdiction which is also elementary in the courts procedure,” he said.
