Case Overview and Summary
Lifting the Suspension of the Privilege of Habeas Corpus Throughout the Philippines- The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus was previously suspended throughout the Philippines under Proclamation No. 210 dated October 22, 1950, for crimes related to sedition, insurrection, rebellion, and offenses committed in connection with these crimes.
- The suspension was lifted in some provinces where peace and order had improved sufficiently.

- Proclamation No. 210 dated October 22, 1950, is hereby revoked.
- The proclamation was issued in the City of Manila on November 24, 1953, in the eighth year of Philippine independence.
