G.R. Nos. 187117 and 187127 October 12, 2011
PRINCIPLE OF JUDICIAL HIERARCHY
At the outset, it is an established policy that parties must observe the hierarchy of courts before they can seek relief directly from the Court. The rationale for this rule is twofold: (a) it would be an imposition upon the limited time of this Court; and (b) it would be an inevitably result in delay, intended or otherwise, in the adjudication of cases, which in some instances, had to be remanded or referred to the lower court as the proper forum under the rules of procedure, or as better equipped to resolve the issues because this Court is not a trier of facts.
