Requirement for Deployment of Court Decongestion Officers
OCA Circular No. 63-2016 mandates the deployment of Court Decongestion Officers (CDOs) to various beneficiary courts in the Philippines, as approved by the Supreme Court in April 2015. The circular identifies specific Regional Trial Courts and Metropolitan Trial Courts that will receive the initial batch of CDOs to help alleviate court congestion. Judges in these courts are required to submit electronic copies of their docket inventories and monthly reports by March 7, 2016, as a prerequisite for the deployment of CDOs. This initiative aims to improve the efficiency of court operations and expedite the resolution of cases.
