While the House of Representatives voted to oust the Philippines’ second-highest official in February, Duterte’s trial remains in limbo after the Senate returned the articles of impeachment to the House, citing possible constitutional and procedural issues on whether or not the 20th Congress can tackle a case filed during the previous Congress.

Some of Duterte’s allies in the Senate have moved to dismiss the impeachment case even before the trial proper began, but other lawmakers insist that the chamber should proceed with the trial and vote based on the evidence and arguments that will be presented.
