Q and A with GPH peace panel chair (now Justice) Marvic Leonen: “It will not be unconstitutional”

From MindaNews (Nov 25): Q and A with GPH peace panel chair (now Justice) Marvic Leonen: “It will not be unconstitutional”

Newly-appointed Supreme Court Justice Mario Victor “Marvic” Leonen will inhibit from deliberations if the GPH-MILF Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro (FAB) or the Executive Order creating the Transition Commission whose negotiations he steered towards the signing of the FAB on October 15, will be questioned at the Supreme Court. “I will inhibit,” Leonen, then government peace panel (GPH) chair, told MindaNews at the Palace of the Golden Horses hotel in Kuala Lumpur on November 16, during a break from the negotiations. Leonen, however, maintained he is confident the FAB or the EO will pass the test of constitutionality.....
