According to reports, the House’s 11-member prosecution panel files its brief together with the defense team’s submission, completing the next procedural step in the case. The filings occur ahead of a scheduled pre-trial conference set for June 18. This conference is intended to address matters related to the pre-trial phase, following the submission of the parties’ pre-trial briefs. While one outlet notes the briefs are filed ahead of a later trial date of July 6, both sources confirm that the immediate timetable includes the June 18 pre-trial conference. The submissions by both sides are presented as the formal basis for the pre-trial discussions before the Senate’s further consideration of the impeachment complaint against Duterte.
