The Court of Appeals of the Philippines (Filipino: Hukumang Paghahabol ng Pilipinas) is the Philippines` second-highest judicial court, just after the Supreme Court. The court consists of 68 Associate Justices and 1 Presiding Justice. Under the Constitution, the Court of Appeals (CA) "reviews not only the decisions and orders of the Regional Trial Courts nationwide but also those of the Court of Tax Appeals, as well as the awards, judgments, final orders or resolutions of, or authorized by 21 Quasi-Judicial Agencies exercising quasi-judicial functions mentioned in Rule 43 of the 1997 Rules of Civil Procedure, plus the National Amnesty Commission (Pres. Proclamation No. 347 of 1994) and Office of the Ombudsman (Fabian v. Desierto, 295 SCRA 470). Under RA 9262, which elevated the CTA to the same level of the CA, CTA En banc decisions are now subject to review by the Supreme Court instead of the CA (as opposed to what is currently provided in in Section 1, Rule 43 of the Rules of Court).
