MANILA, Philippines – The case filed by Willie Revillame against his former home network, ABS-CBN, was re-raffled to a new Quezon City judge on Tuesday.
Judge Santiago Arenas of Quezon City Regional Trial Court Branch 217 will continue to hear the case filed by Revillame in connection with his contract with the Kapamilya network.
Revillame has sued ABS-CBN for judicial confirmation of rescission of his talent contract after unilaterally ending their agreement middle of this year.
Arenas was appointed at QC RTC Branch 217 on Aug. 4, 2008. He is a former assistant city prosecutor of Quezon City.
He presided over the case of Mo Twister when he was sued by GMA 7 for breach of contract after agreeing to appear on TV 5's celebrity programs, “Juicy” and “Paparazzi.”
On December 13, Judge Luisito Cortez voluntarily inhibited from the Revillame case after the Kapamilya network revealed in its petition the “undisclosed relationship” between the spouse of Cortez, lawyer Angelita Ortega Cortez, and TV5 president Ray Espinosa.
Angelita and Espinosa, whose network airs Revillame’s new program, had worked in the same law firm together.
