Practice question: Exclusive Original and Appellate Jurisdiction Over Civil Cases

Multiple Choice Medium

Practice question

A proper customs seizure appeal concerns property worth PHP300,000. The opponent invokes only the PHP1-million original tax-collection threshold to defeat CTA appellate customs jurisdiction. Which is best?
  1. Every appellate case requires one million principal tax.
  2. The customs category vanishes below a million property value.
  3. The private broker may confer jurisdiction by consent instead.
  4. Every seizure appeal begins originally in the Supreme Court.
  5. That original collection threshold does not by itself eliminate the separate appellate customs category.
