Who has the authority to appoint the officials and employees of the Judiciary?
The Supreme Court is empowered to manage its own human resources independent of the executive branch. It possesses the authority to appoint all officials and employees of the Judiciary. However, this appointment power must be exercised strictly in accordance with the existing Civil Service Law. This administrative authority is clearly granted in Article VIII Section 5 1987 Philippine Constitution. “(6) Appoint all officials and employees of the Judiciary in accordance with the Civil Service Law.” 06-Mar-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
