Question

Jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the Philippines

Mr. Santos, a resident of Manila, filed a petition before the Supreme Court of the Philippines seeking the nullification of a law passed by Congress. The law in question imposes an additional tax on all imported goods. Mr. Santos argues that the law is unconstitutional as it violates the equal protection clause of the 1987 Constitution.

Discuss the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court in relation to Mr. Santos' petition, taking into consideration the provisions of the 1987 Constitution, specifically Article VI, Section 30 and Article VIII, Section 5.
