00:00We are disturbed, Your Honor. Although yesterday we terminated our direct examination, we are disturbed by a manifestation of counsel
00:10for the respondent when she said that the marking of the tabulations and summaries will in no way be an
00:26admission, Your Honor,
00:27as to the authenticity of the acknowledgement receipts, which form part of the tabulation and the summary, Your Honor.
00:41We therefore are constrained, unless counsel now is willing to stipulate, that the summaries and the tabulation,
00:54which was really personally prepared by this competent witness of the COA ICFAO, which office received.
01:04And all acknowledgement receipts have an attestation that they are certified through copies of the person who has custody of
01:18the same, Your Honor.
01:18May we inquire from counsel of respondent if, again, although the presiding officer did make it clear that when each
01:30individual acknowledgement receipt is presented,
01:35they have the right to cross-examine.
01:38And we have the right to ask the witness, our concern, Your Honor, is the next witnesses that we will
01:47be presenting will not have any personal knowledge of this acknowledgement receipts.
02:00They will not be able to identify and authenticate.
02:05The only person who can do that, Your Honor, is the current witness, Sailene May Del Campo.
02:12Now, we are constrained, Your Honor.
02:16To save the time of this Honorable Court, this presiding officer will recall that it also ordered, Your Honor,
02:24that the prosecution and the defense submit separately the list of documents, specifically acknowledgement receipts,
02:35to the clerk of court which office will be the one to make the comparison, Your Honor.
02:44Can we modify that order, Your Honor?
02:49Can we request, Your Honor, that in addition to the clerk of court comparing, comparing the prosecution evidence and the
03:02defense evidence,
03:04an exercise which should have been done Thursday and Friday last week, Your Honor,
03:08that instead of just doing that, that this witness appear before the clerk of court to identify and authenticate, Your
03:21Honor,
03:22these documents in front of the prosecution, in front of the defense, and in front of the clerk of court.
03:30Thereafter, the clerk of court can make a finding or report or evaluation that these documents, I'm sorry,
03:41that these documents were properly identified, authenticated by this witness, Your Honor,
03:50to preempt any technical, legal objection in the future, because, Your Honor, or in the formal offer, Your Honor,
04:00because counsel will recall, and this court will recall, that while we had already ended our direct examination,
04:09counsel for respondents said, that does not mean that this witness identified and authenticated the acknowledgement receipts.
04:21And therefore, Your Honor, if we may respectfully request the presiding officer to authorize or to designate the clerk of
04:33court
04:38to accept, Your Honor, not only the documents, but likewise, for this witness to appear before the clerk of court
04:47in front of counsels
04:49for both respondent and the prosecution to enable this witness to identify and authenticate based on personal knowledge,
05:03knowledge, Your Honor, the documents that are part of the summaries, Your Honor.
05:09This way, Your Honor, we will not have to present again acknowledgement receipts this morning and identify each and every
05:18one.
05:20So, in sum, Your Honor, my manifestation is to the effect that we expand the directive of the presiding officer
05:34directing the parties to separately submit their documents and for the clerk of court's office to itself to make the
05:47comparison.
05:48We want to expand it to include that this witness, Ms. Seilin, appear before the clerk of court
05:58in the presence of the court in the presence of counsels for the petitioner and for the respondent for the
06:06purpose of, one, identifying,
06:10and, two, authenticating the documents in the tabulation, Your Honor.
06:15This will save the court two hours today.
06:29Remember Black asking for more information from you to resume today.
06:29It is available for the citation, yes yes, yes, yes, well-made, but if the ìº ting office file,
06:30files of counsels for questions, provide Sekoufax and Krystal Macron send it to the advert가지ê³
06:32and one, ë””ì € will even ask you some information from the ma computation that you have seen.
06:32So in verse 15, I'm excuse so, theì„œvick revealed.
06:32So now what's the result?
