"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, some of the decisions, motions and applications are heard in chambers. A judge’s chamber or office is actually a courtroom. It is like entering a courtroom when a judge is proceeding and arresting the judge. Madam Temporary Speaker, I believe that the President can be forced to do what he has refused to do by an order of mandamus . I say so because an order of mandamus is normally given to a public officer who has refused to perform a public duty. I believe in the appointment of judges. The President is actually duty-bound to do so because Article 166 says that the President shall appoint in accordance with the recommendations of the Judicial Service Commission. An order of mandamus could force the President to do so. If he does not do so, then other measures can set in, as I am going to show shortly. Sen. Orengo has just mentioned about a time when you could not enforce human rights in this country simply because the old Section 82 of the retired Constitution provided that the Chief Justice was supposed to make rules of enforcement of the Chapter on fundamental rights and freedoms."
