The Supreme Court (SC) on Wednesday warned the public regarding advertisements for resource materials circulating in social media and messaging platforms purporting to be a compilation of cases by Associate Justice Amy Lazaro-Javier, chairperson of this year’s Bar Examinations.
In a notice, the High Court said the post offers a bundle of digital review materials comprising “PDF Case Digest by Justice Amy C. Lazaro-Javier” and “Compilation of Full-Text Cases by Justice Lazaro-Javier,” giving the wrong impression that the said materials were authored or otherwise authorized to be released by the Office of the 2025 Bar Chairperson.
“Please be advised and warned that the Office of the 2025 Bar Chairperson will never author, sponsor, release, or, in any capacity, be involved in the publication of any review materials for the 2025 Bar Examinations, whether printed or digital,” Lazaro-Javier said, adding that a discerning eye and prudent mind are invaluable qualities of an admirable lawyer.
She said Bar examinees are encouraged to exercise the highest degree of caution at this pivotal period of their career.
The Bar chair likewise underscored that aspiring lawyers must rely on their might rather than on dubious sources of information.
The origins of the review materials were traced to a Facebook page called PH LAW Learning Library.
