Q. No. 1 Bar 2022 Political Law

-



A police officer saw Harvey urinating in public. A local ordinance imposes a Php 500.00 fine for urinating in public. The police officer shouted at Harvey: 


β€œThat is against the law!” Harvey sarcastically answered: β€œNo, this is against the wall!”


Then and there, the police officer arrested him and brought him to the police station. 


At the police station, Harvey was frisked and was found in possession of an unlicensed .38 caliber revolver loaded with five live ammunition. He was subsequently charged with Qualified Illegal Possession of Firearms. When the prosecution offered in evidence the unlicensed firearm and ammunition, the defense objected on the ground that the pieces of evidence are products of an illegal search and seizure. 


The prosecution contended that the pieces of evidence were lawfully seized after a valid warrantless search incidental to a lawful arrest. 


Was the search and seizure valid? Explain briefly. (5 points)

No. 189255 June 17, 2015]  "Aside from the control test, the Supreme Court has also used the economic reality test in determining whether an employer-employee relationship exists between the parties."  "Under this test, the economic realities prevailing within the activity or between the parties are examined, taking into consideration the [totality of circumstances] surrounding the true nature of the relationship between the parties." In Sevilla v. Court of Appeals, we observed the need to consider the existing economic conditions prevailing between the parties, in addition to the standard of right-of-control [...] to give a clearer picture in determining the existence of an employer-employee relationship based on an analysis of the totality of economic circumstances of the worker.  Thus, the determination of the relationship between employer and employee depends upon the circumstances of the whole economic activi...
