Appeals court denies bail plea of Ingrid Canada, Quiboloy's co-accused
The Court of Appeals (CA) has denied the appeal for bail filed by Ingrid Canada, a co-accused of Apollo Quiboloy in a qualified trafficking case.
Canada's petition sought to overturn the denial of her bail petition by the Pasig City Regional Trial Court Branch 159.
The CA dismissed the petition because it was "belatedly filed and being procedurally infirmed."
A significant procedural lapse was filing the petition through a private courier, which is not a recognized method for determining timeliness.
The CA cited a Supreme Court ruling stating that initiatory pleadings must be filed personally or by registered mail.
The appellate court also faulted Canada for failing to include the "People of the Philippines" as an indispensable party in her special civil action.
