“Supporters of Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte have urged the Supreme Court to dismiss her impeachment, calling it a politically motivated attack. In a petition filed Tuesday, lawyers supporting Duterte argued that the impeachment — based on charges of corruption and betraying public trust — was pushed through without due process and should be nullified. They also called for the court to block an impending Senate trial that could expel her from office.” (02/18/25)
