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.
