Practice question
A court applies the ordinary continuous-trial mediation provision to an Article315(2) charge solely because the list mentions estafa. No other lawful referral basis is identified. Which is best?
- Every estafa paragraph is necessarily covered by that wording
- The court must respect the list’s express distinction; the specified Article315(1) category excludes paragraphs2 and3
- Only the caption matters, never the statutory paragraph
- No civil dispute can ever be mediated through any other lawful rule
- The mediator automatically determines the proper criminal classification
