    Read the case in your syllabus, Prof. Randy David vs Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, G.R. No.
    171396, May 3, 2006.

    In the said case, the Supreme Court had partially struck down some provisions of
    Presidential Proclamation 1017.

    Why were these provisions unconstitutional according to the Court?

    In applying H.L.A. Hart’s theory that the law is union of primary and secondary rules,
    what are the primary and secondary rules that led to the decision of the Court?

    Define these rules then identify them in the case and in Philippine legal system.
