The Mindanao State University (MSU), acting through its Board of Regents, has filed a petition with the Supreme Court challenging the constitutionality of the Legal Education Board (LEB) and its regulatory authority over state-owned, chartered law schools.
The petition also seeks a temporary restraining order and an injunction against LEBโs cease-and-desist and closure orders, asserting that MSUโs autonomy as a state-owned university renders it exempt from LEBโs oversight.
Despite persistent intrusive actions from LEB, MSU has remained resolute in its commitment to the continued operation of its College of Law. The universityโs legal action, sanctioned by its highest governing body, represents a significant challenge to LEBโs authority and a courageous defense of academic freedom.
