EXECUTIVE CLEMENCY

EXECUTIVE CLEMENCY
 Is a disposition of the President to show mercy, especially toward an offender or
enemy. It is granted for the purpose of relieving the harshness of the law or
correcting mistakes in the administration of justice.
 Under the criminal justice system is the act by an executive member of
government of extending mercy to a convicted individual.
 In the United States, clemency is granted by a governor for state crimes and by a
president for federal crimes.
 Clemency can take one of four forms:
Reprieve, Commutation of Sentence, Pardon and Amnesty.
Constitutional Basis:
ART. VII, SEC. 19, 1987 PHILIPPINE CONSTITUTION
Except in cases of impeachment, or as otherwise provided in this Constitution, the
President may grant reprieves, commutations, and pardons, and remit fines and
forfeitures, after conviction by final judgment. He shall also have the power to grant
amnesty with the concurrence of a majority of all the Members of the Congress.

Section 5, Article IX
(Constitutional Commissions- The Commission on Elections)
No pardon, amnesty, parole, or suspension of sentence for violation of election
rules, and regulations shall be granted by the President without a favorable
recommendation of the Commission.
Executive Clemency
Why it is Extended?
 In general, Executive Clemency is often extended for humanitarian reasons, such
as to an aged and ill inmate who needs specialized medical care. Inmates who
suffer from serious, contagious, or life threatening illness or disease and those
prisoners with severe disability can now be recommended for executive clemency.
 It is also extended in the following instances:
a) When there is real doubt about the guilt of the party.
b) When the sentence given is Apparently excessive
c) When the party is a political or personal friend of the President.
d) To clear the record of some who has demonstrated rehabilitation or public service.
Referral of Petition For Executive Clemency/Parole To Other
Government Agencies:

Secretary of National Defense - If the crime committed by the


petitioner is against national security or public order or law of
nations.
Commission on Elections - In case of violation of election laws, rules
and regulations.
Department of Foreign Affairs - In case of an alien.
PARDON

 It is a form of Executive Clemency which is exercised by Chief Executive. It is an


act of Grace and the recipient is not entitled to it as a matter of right. It is
discretionary and not subject to review by the judiciary.
 It dates back to the pre-Christian Era. It was applied to members of the Royal
Family who committed crimes and occasionally to those convicted of offenses
against the royal power. In England it was usually an exclusive power of the king
but there were times that were extended to the Queens upon advised of the
Minister of the Interior.
 It is highly political in nature and is usually granted in response to popular clamor
(noise) or to aid in the return to normalcy of a political situation that might affect
the country if not addresses.
No Pardon can be granted for violation of any election laws,rules and regulation without
the favorable recommendation of the COMMISSION ON ELECTION (Sec.5 Art. lX)

Secretary of National Defense - If the crime committed by the petitioner is against


national security or public order or law of nations.

Commission on Elections - In case of violation of election laws, rules and regulations.


Department of Foreign Affairs - In case of an alien.

Take Note: “Pardon can be granted only after conviction by final judgment”
History of Pardon
England
 Pardon was developed out of the conflict between the King and the Nobles who
threatened their powers.
 Pardon was applied to members of the Royal family who committed crimes and
occasionally to those convicted of offenses against the royal power. It was the
general view that the pardoning power was the exclusive prerogative of the King.
 In England today the power to extend pardon is vested in the Queen upon
advice of the Minister of the Interior.
History of Pardon
United States
 Pardoning among the early American colonists was a carry- over of the
English practice.
 The pardoning power was exercised by the Royal governor through the power
delegated by the King.
 After the declaration of Independence, the Federal and State constitutions vested
the pardoning power on the President of the United States and the Governor in
federal and state cases, respectively.
History of Pardon
Philippines

The Jone’s Law Section 21 stated that “the Governor General of the Philippine
Islands is vested with the power to grant pardons and reprieves and remit fines and
forfeiture”.
The pardoning power was vested in the Prime Minister by Article IX, Section 14
of the Philippine Constitution which states: “The Prime Minister shall have the power
to grant reprieves, commutations, and pardons, and remit fine and forfeitures, after
convictions for all offenses, except cases of impeachment, upon such conditions and
with such restrictions and limitations as he may deem proper to impose. He shall have
the power to grant amnesty with the concurrence of the Congress.”
Kinds of Pardon
Absolute Pardon
 the extinction of the criminal liability of the individual to whom it is granted without any condition and restores to
the individual his civil rights.
 The purposes of this kind of pardon are
a) To do away with the miscarriage of justice.
b) To keep punishment abreast with the current philosophy, concept or practice of
criminal justice administration.
c) It is the sole power of the President to grant it to that person whose qualification is qualified except in
cases of impeachment (Art. 7,sec 19 of 1987 Philippine Constitution)
d) To restore full political and civil rights of persons who have already served their
sentence and have waited the prescribed period.
 From 10 years it became 5 years - period is required to give the offender an
opportunity to demonstrate that he has established a new pattern of conduct.
CRISTOBAL VS LABRADOR
The case where the supreme court laid down the doctrine that absolute pardon removes all that is left of the
consequences of conviction and that it is absolute in so far it restores the pardonee his full civil political
rights.
Kinds of Pardon
Conditional Pardon
 The extinction of the criminal liability of an individual, within certain limits or
conditions, from the punishment which the law inflicts for the offense he has
committed.
 Conditional Pardon serves the purpose of releasing, through executive
clemency, a prisoner who is already reformed or rehabilitated but who
cannot be paroled because the parole law does not apply to him. Thus, a
prisoner serving a determinate sentence or life imprisonment is excluded
from the benefits of the parole law.
 However, when this prisoner has already been reformed, he may be
released on conditional pardon.
EFFECTS OF PARDON

1) It removes penalties and disabilities and restores full civil and political
rights;

2) It does not discharge the civil liability of the convict to the individual
he has wronged as the President has no power to pardon a private
wrong;
3) It does not restore offices, property or rights vested in others in consequence
of the conviction. Under our law, a pardon shall not work the restoration of the
right to hold public office or the right of suffrage unless such rights be
expressly restored by the terms of the pardon.
Limitations /Disqualification upon The Pardoning Power

1) It may not be exercised in impeachment cases;


2) It may be exercised only after conviction by final judgment;
3) It may not be exercised over civil and legislative contempt;

4) In case of violation of election law or rules and regulations, no pardon, parole or suspension of sentence may
be granted without the recommendation of the Commission on Elections;

5) It may not be exercised during pendency of case or trial or during appeal

6) Violation of Art. 157 – evasion of service of sentence for 1 year from the time of recommitment; and

7) It cannot be exercised in cases of violations of tax laws.


 Cases pending trial or on appeal are still within the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts; hence, pursuant
to the theory of separation of powers, the Chief Executive has no jurisdiction over the accused.
Eligibility For Conditional Pardon

He must have served at least one half (1/2) of the minimum of his indeterminate sentence or
the following portions of his prison sentence:
 at least two (2) years of the minimum sentence if convicted of Murder or Parricide
but not sentenced to Reclusion Perpetua
 at least one (1) year of the minimum sentence if convicted of Homicide;
 at least nine (9) months if convicted of Frustrated Homicide;
 and at least six (6) months if convicted of Attempted Homicide.
However, in the case of a prisoner who is convictedof a heinous crime as defined in
Republic Act No. 7659 and other special laws, he shall have served at least one-half
(1/2) of the maximum of his original indeterminate sentence before his case
may be reviewed for conditional pardon.
Some Guides In Pardon Selection

prisoner should be disregarded.

[Link] regard should be given to the attitude of the people in the community
from which he was sentenced.
c. The judicial history of the case should be carefully investigated.

social, economic, psychological and emotional backgrounds – should be
carefully investigated.
Conditional Pardon vs Parole
 Purpose of conditional pardon and parole is the same
 Both releases are subject to the same set of conditions will subject the parolee or pardonee to be
recommitted to prison.
 The only difference between the two is the granting authority. In parole the granting authority is
the Board of Pardons and Parole, while in conditional pardon, the granting authority is the
President.
 Pre-Parole Investigation for Parole (30 Days)
 Pre-Executive Clemency For Conditional Pardon (30 Days)
