Philippine law

Philippine law is a system of rules established by the government to maintain order, protect rights, and promote justice. It includes the Constitution, laws enacted by Congress, decisions by courts, and regulations by agencies. These laws govern various aspects of life, such as personal rights, property, commerce, and public safety. The legal process involves interpreting and applying these laws to resolve disputes. Courts, especially the Supreme Court, ensure laws are consistent with the Constitution. Philippine law balances individual freedoms with societal well-being, aiming for fairness, order, and progress within a democratic framework.
