MEMORANDUM
CIRCULAR NO. 3 [1978]
TO: ALL
JUDGES OF THE COURT OF TAX APPEALS, COURTS OF FIRST INSTANCE, CIRCUIT
CRIMINAL
COURTS, JUVENILE AND DOMESTIC RELATIONS COURTS, COURTS OF AGRARIAN
RELATIONS
AND CITY AND MUNICIPAL COURTS
SUBJECT:
SERVICE OF WRITS AND COURT PROCESSES IN CONNECTION WITH CASES INVOLVING
FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS OR INSTRUMENTALITIES.
The attention
of
this Court has been called to diplomatic notes received by the
Department
of Foreign Affairs complaining that Court processes or writs have been
mailed or otherwise delivered directly to embassies of foreign
governments
or agencies thereof without coursing the same through the Department of
Foreign Affairs. The practice complained of is not in consonance with
diplomatic
practice.
Accordingly, you
are hereby advised that henceforth, Court processes and writs issued in
connection with cases involving foreign governments or agencies should
be forwarded to the Department of Foreign Affairs for transmission to
the
foreign embassy concerned by diplomatic note.
Strict
compliance
herewith is enjoined.
March 14,
1978.
[Sgd.]
