Court decision that allows commercial fishing in municipal waters challenged
The Freeman
|April 26, 2025
Constitutional framer Christian Monsod and Cardinal Pablo Virgilio David, president of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines, have filed a petition before the Supreme Court seeking to overturn a lower court ruling that they say endangers the exclusive fishing rights of small-scale fishers in municipal waters.
-
Monsod and David have jointly filed a petition before the Supreme Court in Manila on Thursday, April 24, seeking to overturn a ruling that would permit commercial fishing within the crucial 15-kilometer zone reserved for small-scale fishermen.
Along with David and Monsod is lawyer Grizelda Mayo-Anda, an environmental lawyer and advocate for coastal communities.
The 55-page petition assailed a December 2023 decision by the Malabon Regional Trial Court (RTC), which invalidated key provisions of the Fisheries Code.
The RTC ruling struck down local government jurisdiction over these near-shore waters and eliminated the legal mandate prioritizing access for small-scale fishers
