TheCourt of Appeals (Filipino:Hukuman ng Apelasyon;[2] previouslyHukuman ng Paghahabol[3]) is an appellate collegiate court in the Philippines. The Court of Appeals consists of one presiding justice and sixty-eight associate justices. Pursuant to theConstitution, the Court of Appeals "reviews not only the decisions and orders of the Regional Trial Courts awards, judgments, final orders or resolutions of, or authorized by administrative agencies exercising quasi-judicial functions mentioned in Rule 43 of the 1997 Rules of Civil Procedure, plus the National Amnesty Commission (Pres. Proclamation No. 347 of 1994) and theOffice of the Ombudsman".[4] Under Republic Act No. 9282, which elevated the Court of Tax Appeals to the same level of the Court of Appeals,en banc decisions of the Court of Tax Appeals are subject to review by the Supreme Court instead of the Court of Appeals (as opposed to what is currently provided in Section 1, Rule 43 of the Rules of Court). Added to the formidable list are the decisions and resolutions of the National Labor Relations Commission which are now initially reviewable by the Court of Appeals, instead of a direct recourse to the Supreme Court, via petition for certiorari under Rule 65.[5]
The Court of Appeals buildings is at Maria Orosa Street inErmita, Manila, on the grounds of what used to be part of theUniversity of the Philippines Manila campus.
Organized on February 1, 1936, the Court of Appeals was initially composed of Justice Pedro Concepcion, as the first presiding judge, and ten appellate judges appointed by thepresident of the Philippines with the consent of theCommission on Appointments of theNational Assembly. It had exclusive appellate jurisdiction of all cases not falling under the original and exclusive appellate jurisdiction of the seven-manSupreme Court. Its decisions in those cases were final, except when the Supreme Court upon petition forcertiorari on questions of law required that the case be certified to it for review. It also had original jurisdiction to issue writs ofmandamus,prohibition,injunction,certiorari,habeas corpus and all other auxiliary writs in aid of its appellate jurisdiction. The court then sat eitheren banc or in two divisions, one of six and another of five judges. The appellate judges had the same qualifications as those provided by theConstitution for Supreme Court justices.
In March 1938, the appellate judges were namedjustices and their number increased from eleven to fifteen, with three divisions of five under Commonwealth Act No. 259. On December 24, 1941, the membership of the court was further increased to nineteen justices under Executive Order No. 395.
The court functioned during the Japanese occupation from 1941 to 1944. However, in March 1945, due to abnormal conditions at the time,[clarification needed] the court was abolished by PresidentSergio Osmeña through Executive Order No. 37. The end ofWorld War II restored the democratic processes in the country. On October 4, 1946, Republic Act No. 52 was passed, recreating the Court of Appeals, with a presiding justice and fourteen associate justices. The court was composed of five divisions of three justices each.
On August 23, 1956, the membership of the court was expanded to eighteen justices per Republic Act No. 1605. The number was hiked to twenty-four justices as decreed by Republic Act No. 5204 approved on June 15, 1968. Ten years later, the unabated swelling of the court's dockets called for a much bigger court of forty-five justices under Presidential Decree No. 1482 of June 10, 1978. Then came the judiciary reorganization on January 17, 1983, through Executive Order No. 864 of PresidentFerdinand Marcos. The court was renamed the Intermediate Appellate Court, and its membership was enlarged to fifty-one justices. However, only thirty-seven justices were appointed to this court.
On July 28, 1986, PresidentCorazon Aquino issued Executive Order No. 33, which restored the original name of the appellate court to the Court of Appeals and its presiding justice and fifty associate justices.
On February 23, 1995, Republic Act No. 7902 was passed, which expanded the jurisdiction of the court effective March 18, 1995. On December 30, 1996, Republic Act No. 8246 created six more divisions in the court, thereby increasing its membership from fifty-one to sixty-nine justices. These additional divisions—three for theVisayas and three forMindanao—paved the way for the appellate court's regionalization. In the Visayas, the court sits inCebu City, whileCagayan de Oro is home to the court for Mindanao.
On August 18, 2007, the then-president of the Cebu City Chapter of the Integrated Bar of the Philippines, Briccio Joseph Boholst, opposed the abolition of the court in Cebu City, as he claimed that it would cause inconvenience for both litigants and lawyers. Supreme Court Associate JusticeRuben Reyes was tasked to investigate and submit his recommendations to the High Tribunal regarding the alleged massive graft and corruption of justices, especially in the issuance oftemporary restraining orders.[6]
On February 1, 2018, the court celebrated its 82nd anniversary.[7]
The Court of Appeals consists of a presiding justice and sixty-eight associate justices. Among the current members of the court,Fernanda Lampas-Peralta is the longest-serving associate justice, with a tenure of7,927 days (21 years, 256 days) as of October 23, 2025; the most recent justice to enter the court are Marietta S. Brawner-Cualing, Mary Josephine P. Lazaro, Ferdinand C. Baylon and Emilio Rodolfo Y. Legaspi III on August 29, 2024.
