Unless there appears to be reasonable cause or the court may deem it just, only the court can order an HDO. Before you leave, just make sure you inform the court. Please note that you need the approval of the court before you leave so that your passport cannot be revoked if requested by adverse party.

The court shall give you condition if ever you request to leave the country. You have to follow strictly this condition. You shall also be required to state your reason of leaving and the period or length of your absence. If it is without cause, then the court has the discretion to refuse your travel.

may posibilidad po ba na may hdo ako?worried lng po kasi ako kasi may apply po ako pa abroad,wala nmn na pong blak ituloy yung kaso ng complainant,pano ko po ba mapapabilis madissmiss ung kaso is there a chance po b na madissmiss ang kaso nxt year kung di sya lgi umaattend?

There might be possibility as I have mentioned earlier, unless there is a good cause and the court deem it necessary to issue hold departure order, the judge can order it. The prosecutor can still proceed with the case. But the court will take notice of her absence. Case to case basis po yan. It might take 4-6 months before a case can be dismissed.

gnon po ba..tagal pala cguro wait ko muna madissmiss ang kaso bago ko makapagtrvel...d po ba makakarecieve ka ng letter o maghehearing muna kayo about sa hdo bago ka maissuehan ng gnon?tama po ba ko..tsaka mtc lng po kmi naghehearing eh..pd po b magissue ng hdo ang mtc?salamat po...

mkikita po ba sa nbi kung may hdo ko..salamat po

RTC should be the one issuing HDO according to Supreme Court circular NO. 39-97. Sa computer ng Immigration bago ka lumabas ng bansa po makikita ung HDO.

For your convenience I attached below the circular


TO: ALL JUDGES
SUBJECT: GUIDELINES IN THE ISSUANCE OF HOLD-DEPARTURE ORDERS.

In order to avoid the indiscriminate issuance of Hold-Departure Orders resulting in inconvenience to the parties affected, the same being tantamount to an infringement on the right and liberty of an individual to travel and to ensure that the Hold-Departure Orders which are issued contain complete and accurate information, the following guidelines are hereby promulgated:

1. Hold-Departure Orders shall be issued only in criminal cases within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Regional Trial Courts;

2. The Regional Trial Courts issuing the Hold-Departure Order shall furnish the Department of Foreign Affairs [DFA] and the Bureau of Immigration [BI] of the Department of Justice with a copy each of the Hold-Departure Order issued within twenty-four (24) hours from the time of issuance and through the fastest available means of transmittal;

3. The Hold-Departure Order shall contain the following information:

a. The complete name (including the middle name), the date and place of birth and the place of last residence of the person against whom a Hold-Departure Order has been issued or whose departure from the country has been enjoined;

b. The complete title and the docket number of the case in which the Hold-Departure Order was issued;
c. The specific nature of the case; and
d. The date of the Hold-Departure Order.
If available, a recent photograph of the person against whom a Hold-Departure Order has been issued or whose departure from the country has been enjoined should also be included.

4. Whenever [a] the accused has been acquitted; or [b] the case has been dismissed, the judgment of acquittal or the order of dismissal shall include therein the cancellation of the Hold-Departure Order issued. The Court concerned shall furnish the Department of Foreign Affairs and the Bureau of Immigration with a copy each of the judgment of acquittal promulgated or the order of dismissal issued within twenty-four [24] hours from the time of promulgation/issuance and likewise through the fastest available means of transmittal.
All Regional Trial Courts which have furnished the Department of Foreign Affairs with their respective lists of active Hold-Departure Orders included in the said lists and inform the government agencies concerned of the status of the Orders involved.

This Circular revokes Circular No. 38-94 dated 6 June 1994 and Circular No. 62-96 dated 9 September 1996, takes effect immediately and shall remain in force until further orders.

For strict compliance.

salamat po..ngaun naliwanagan na ko...

ask ko lng po kc me hearing ako ng hdo today. nasa ibang bansa po ako maari po b ako ipadeport dahil don. please sir i need ur advice

There is a lot to tell and say about your case. You need to consult a lawyer.

Hi Atty.,

I would like to ask po sana if a subpoena for a criminal case of carnapping would suffice for an issuance of a hold departure order? I am a frequent traveller and a friend charged me of carnapping for not giving her the car that we agreed she would buy because she hasn't paid me her past due accounts po eh.

What is your advice po?

Thanks!

pag po b ang kaso hinehearing s mtc pd po bng magkaron ng hdo ang accused?alm q po kac rtc lng nagiissue ng hdo eh.tama po b q?
