Revised Rules on Evidence (Commentaries, Rules, and Cases)
Understanding the dynamic subject of evidence may be a daunting task to law students and law practitioners alike. Hence, I am delighted to read The Revised Rules on Evidence (Commentaries, Rules and Cases), which is the fourth book crafted by the father and daughter tandem. This book treats the entire subject of the evidence as revised, pursuant to A.M. No. 19-08-05-SC.

Reviewer in Procedure and Evidence Gov. Phil. Shari’a Courts
The first edition of this book was entitled “Reviewer in Islamic Procedure and Evidence.” My decision to name the work as such was due to the fact that one of the tests in the Philippine Shari’a bar is called “Islamic Procedure and Evidence.”

Special Rules of Procedure Governing Philippine Shari’a Courts Annotated
The amendments of the 1997 Rules of Civil Procedure by the Supreme Court of the Philippines effective May 1, 2020 and the passage of Republic Act No. 11054 otherwise known as the Bangsamoro Organic Law call for the revision of this humble work. There were substantial changes in the rules of pleading and in the jurisdiction of the Shari’a courts brought about such issuances. In addition, I have expanded the annotations of the Special Rules to minimize the reader’s effort in referring back to the provisions of the Rules of Court.
