Administrative Law
Administrative Law has always been at the sidewalks in the streets of Political Law. As a separate subject in the study of law or in any other related discipline, less attention have been given to this area. Unknown to many, this field of law is as important as the branches of civil, criminal, commercial, or remedial law. This lay down the protocols, rules, and the procedural law of public administration. Many have not seen its significance because these are being practiced from within the organizational structure of the government. It does not generally apply to private individuals unless to the extent that liability attaches to the cohorts of public officers, and other exceptional circumstances.

CROSS-BORDER DOCUMENTS: A Primer on Notarization and Authentication of Documents Abroad
While this Primer was originally drafted within the context of the work rendered by Philippine embassies and consulates, I have included in the discussion the rules on remote notarization of paper documents which I hope the notaries public will find useful during these times and which now find application in embassies and consulates pursuant to rules that were issued by the Department of Foreign Affairs only recently.

Philippine Environmental Laws, Policies and Case Remedies: An Academic Dissection

Only to find out later that there are a few books available on the shelves that we could browse for useful and relevant information on the subject matter.
