I. Prologue
1973 Constitution- There is no right to revolt in the 1973
Constitution, in force prior to February 23-25, 1986.
Nonetheless, it is widely accepted that under natural law,
the right of revolution is an inherent right of the people.
The Court has also identified in several cases certain natural rights
such as the right to liberty, the right of expatriation, the right of
parents over their children which provides basis for a parent’s
visitorial rights over his illegitimate children, and the right to the fruits
of one’s industry.
Philippine Bill of 1902- The "inviolable rules" of the Instruction was re-
enacted almost exactly, an act which temporarily provided for the
administration of the affairs of the civil government in the Philippine
Islands.
These three organic acts - the Instruction, the Philippine Bill of 1902,
and the Jones Law - extended the guarantees of the American Bill of
Rights to the Philippines.
