CIRCULAR
NO. 47-95
TO: ALL
CLERKS OF COURT AND BRANCH CLERKS OF COURT OF THE REGIONAL TRIAL
COURTS,
METROPOLITAN TRIAL COURTS AND THE MUNICIPAL TRIAL COURT IN CITIES
SUBJECT:
FURNISHING THE CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION SERVICE COMMAND - NATIONAL
CAPITAL
REGION COPIES OF WARRANTS OF ARREST.
Quoted hereunder
is a request dated July 5, 1995 of the Criminal Investigation Service
Command,
National Capital Regional Office, Camp Crame, Quezon City:
"The
Criminal Investigation
Command is currently building a database on all warrants of arrest
issued
by the Courts nationwide. This will facilitate our efforts to track
down
persons with standing warrants of arrest for their eventual
apprehension.
"In what
appeared to
be an earlier arrangement, all Courts in the National Capital Region
are
furnishing the Command, copies of warrants of arrest for
implementation,
which we also process for our database build-up. Unfortunately, no
similar
arrangement is existing for other Regions outside Metro Manila.
"At this time,
our Warrant
and Alarm Branch is capable of processing all warrants or orders of
arrest
issued by the Courts nationwide, for the purpose of our database
build-up
and consequently, for implementation by our field offices and PNP
territorial
forces.
"May we,
therefore,
request your Honor to give mandate to all inferior Courts throughout
the
Philippines to furnish the PNP Criminal Investigation Command, copies
of
all warrants and/or orders of arrest issued by them under a similar
arrangment
existing in Metro Manila area.
"The said
warrants
or orders of arrest may be addressed to:
"THE
DIRECTOR
PNP Criminal
Investigation
Command
Camp, Crame
Quezon
City
Attn: Warrant
and
Alarm Branch"
All concerned
are hereby
directed to furnish copies of warrants of arrest issued by the Courts
in
your station to the authorized liaison officers of the Criminal
Investigation
Service Command.
October 2,
1995.
