How an Impeachment Case Is Done

Impeachment is a constitutional process used to remove high officials for serious wrongdoing. It is not the same as removal — it’s the formal charge. Here’s how it works in most presidential systems (U.S. and PH-style)


IMPEACHMENT PROCESS

1. File complaint

2. Committee review

3. House vote → impeachment

4. Senate trial

5. 2/3 vote → conviction

6. Removal + disqualification


1️⃣ Filing of Complaint


A complaint can be filed by:

A citizen (endorsed by a lawmaker)

A member of the House of Representatives

Or by the legislature itself via resolution


The complaint must allege impeachable offenses such as:

Betrayal of public trust

Graft & corruption

Bribery

High crimes

Treason


2️⃣ House Committee Review


The complaint is sent to the Justice / Rules Committee (PH or US context varies).

They check if:

The complaint is sufficient in form

Sufficient in substance

Supported by evidence or documents


If it fails → Dismissed.

If it passes → Goes to hearings.


3️⃣ House Hearings & Voting


The committee holds:

Hearings

Witness questioning

Evidence review


Afterwards, the full House votes.

To impeach, you need a simple majority.


If majority votes YES → The official is impeached.

If NO → Case dies.


4️⃣ Senate Impeachment Trial


Once impeached, the case moves to the Senate, which acts as a court.


They conduct:

A full trial

Witness testimony

Evidence presentation


The Senate President (or Chief Justice if the President is on trial) presides.


5️⃣ Senate Verdict


Senators vote guilty or not guilty.


✔️ Guilty = Removal from office + possible disqualification

 Not guilty = Acquitted, remains in office


A 2/3 vote is required to convict.


6️⃣ Possible Aftermath


Even if acquitted:

Additional investigations can continue

Public opinion may still affect reputation

Officials may face regular criminal cases after their term


IMPEACHMENT PROCESS ̶

1埈 Filing of Complaint

Citizens (endorsed by a lawmaker) or House members may file. Must allege

impeachable offenses like betrayal of public trust, corruption, bribery, high

crimes, or treason.

2埈 Committee Review

House Committee reviews if the complaint is sufficient in form and substance

before hearings start.

3埈 House Hearings & Voting

Committee evaluates evidence, conducts hearings. Simple majority vote in the

House is needed to impeach.

4埈 Senate Impeachment Trial

Senate conducts a full trial with witnesses, evidence, and arguments.

5埈 Senate Verdict

Conviction requires a 2/3 Senate vote. Guilty = removal from office. Not

guilty = acquitted.

6埈 Aftermath

Acquittal does not stop possible future investigations or cases after the

official's term.
