The House of Representatives will ask the Supreme Court to reconsider its junking of the articles of impeachment against Vice President Sara Duterte, which it said relied more on a news story than the chamber’s journal.

The Philippine Supreme Court has blocked an impeachment trial against Sara Duterte, marking a victory for the country's vice-president. The lower house of the Philippine parliament had voted to impeach Duterte in February after she was accused of misusing public funds and threatening to kill President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr.

An impeachment proceeding against Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte can't proceed due to a constitutional limit on the annual number of impeachments.
