The criminal justice process in the Philippines involves law enforcement apprehending suspected violators. Cases may be diverted at various stages if there is insufficient evidence. They proceed to prosecution if probable cause exists and to courts for trial. If convicted, offenders serve time in jail/prison or probation. Diversion can occur through parole, pardon or probation. The process involves pillars of law enforcement, prosecution, courts, corrections and community involvement.
