INTRODUCTION
Courts worldwide are flooded with filed cases that require resolution. Unfortunately,
not all cases are resolved timely resulting in pending cases which may extend the
total number of filed cases are 37,600 and 2,931 of it are only the number of cases that are
resolution is used as an alternative. Dispute resolution refers to an action that aims to resolve
any civil disputes without resorting to court and undergoing litigation (Lawbite, 2021). The
dispute resolution was originated during the Spanish and American colonization with the lead
by the elders as the mediators (Disini, et.al, 2002). Alternative dispute resolution really gives
a relief to the court's duty in accepting complaints and giving justice to it (Colombo, 2012).
Tabucanon, Wall, & Yan (2008) stated that mediation seems to be the pioneer of national
community disputes, school disputes, and marital problems. Moreover, there is evidence from
China, Taiwan, India, Great Britain, Australia, Japan, and Turkey suggesting that mediation
Amicable settlement is commonly used over the past years for settling disputes and
restoring relationships between disputed parties. Conciliation settlement rates are high, the
processes of conciliation, mediation and arbitration form part of the techniques of alternative
dispute resolution which have become increasingly popular as alternatives to litigation (Eden
& Gough, 2011). Colombo (2012) stated that there are many kinds of alternative dispute as a
form of settlement.
ethnic group will be given justice through their own justice system without the concurrence
of the Philippine justice system and those persons in-charged to act as mediator or moderator
are the head of such ethnic groups. In the region of cordillera, only the leaders of every ethnic
group have the power to act as a mediator and resolve disputes between their members in

scope and power of the Barangay Justice System that merely made to law to
2004).
The procedure of barangay justice system starts when any individual who has a cause
of action against another individual involving any matter within the authority of the Lupon,
the second process is recording of the complaint. When the complaint is final and the date for
the hearing is made, a summon letter will be made and will be given to the complained
person. In this stage, the Punong Barangay will act as the mediator and his only intention is to
resolve the dispute and reconcile the broken relationship. After the mediation process and
reconciliation has failed to be achieved, certificate to file action will be given to them, and for
them to use it to push through their case to proper court (Tabucanon, et. al., 2008).
as part of the minority group who lives in a remote location, they have their own Indigenous
Justice System, wherein the leader of a certain ethnic group acts as the mediator. They were
divided according to their way of the justice system. But when the Katarungang Pambarangay
were made, they are now bound through the laws created by the government. These are the
Barangay Justice System by virtue of PD 1508 and its process, the Alternative Dispute
Resolution as provided by RA 9285. Relevantly, Fisher (2014) cited that the Government is
doing its best to provide retributive policies to law violators even though victims remain
unsatisfied with the result of the criminal justice system brought about by the policy changes.
All things that happen in our daily lives are being posted in social media. Even others’
personal problems are being posted through social media platforms. Due to the fast
development of technology in today's generation. Dispute resolution and justice may succeed
through online mediation or online dispute resolution (Mania, 2015). According to Onge
influential in how people communicate, broadcast their ideas, and form opinions; social
media also makes the distribution and communication of information, whether fact or fiction,
extremely easy and accessible to anyone. Social media gives everyone a platform to share
According to the study of Wittig & Ghosheh (2020), Social media has changed the
tools accessible to disputed parties, civil society, peace practitioners and the public to bewitch
in both peace and war efforts. It has increased opportunities in the before time phases of
peace processes, adding assisting with data gathering and analysis and diversifying dialogue.
But it additionally carries risks. Social media can create new hierarchies due to dissimilarities
in the internet, get into use or exacerbate propaganda, and detest speech. Moreover, social
media from legal trials has emerged as one of the most convenient approaches wherein the
general public can benefit from direct participation into legal proceedings, especially in
international locations in which cameras are denied access into the courtroom. The goals of
this text are for that reason twofold: to expose how blogs converting criminal professionals’
paintings practices and to talk about what is far approximately stay blogs that results in those
Relevantly, Dongho & Myoung-Kil (2016), they focus on exploring and analyzing
two vast majority of current legal cases of the abuse power by the wealthy so as to identify
the effects of social media on these types of cases. In spite of the availability of numerous
studies and findings about the tolerance level to proceeds inequality, the following logic is
more appropriate in applying and analyzing the two cases: If public don’t know, see, or
encounter the abuse of the wealthy or revenue inequality, they’re more tolerant of the abuse
and revenue inequality. Moreover, according to Powell (2014) says that, rapid developments
with the local crime events and justice responses through social media.
Additionally, Lago (2021) stated that "change was unavoidable", as the courts facing
today are required to adopt online trials and online justice in settling cases. In that case, they
could inject such much needed innovation to the entire court system. Relevantly, Pavel
(2019), stated that the old judicial way didn’t offer the online dispute resolution as a correct
approach in settling disputes. But nowadays, online dispute resolution might serve as an aid
to court’s duty. However, it merely suggests that those more complex cases which require
pure legal actions will be resolved privately, following the due process of law and those that
are not complex in nature, can be done through online dispute settlement.
Katsh (2007), there is high potential for successful efforts in online dispute resolution,
while the government is making a legal basis that will create a jurisdiction in the cyber world.
Because in online dispute resolution, people may mediate, negotiate, and arbitrate with any
kind of dispute to come up with a resolution. Moreover, Rule (2020) today’s generation, all
disputes are now being noticed and heard through social media. Concerning this, there is a
big possibility that in the near future court proceedings or all legal procedures might be done
informal dispute resolving platform. The online platform is Raffy Tulfo in Action hosted by
Raffy A. Tulfo, an experienced TV Host, Broadcaster, and now, acting as mediator in his
own program. In his program, they entertained complainants who were seeking justice. The
process in his program are; 1. Complainants should go to their office, 2. File a complaint, 3.
The program informed the complained person, and lastly, the scheduling of public online
dispute resolution. According to Nicanor (2021), the show has captured the sympathy of the
Filipino people. It goes to an extent that all types of cases and complaints are being brought
before him. But as the Raffy Tulfo in Action give action to the concerns of people, they also
apply the same process under barangay justice system and it only differs their mode of
before their office is appreciated by their clients. They are using their program online to help
people and involve their audiences to comment on their opinions to help and work with the
online program. In this manner, the program gives aid in the many works of our Barangay
Justice System and Courts on the first and second level courts. Due to their immediate
response in every case they have, the people are attracted by their course of action. Therefore,
the people come to their office, file their concerns instead of having it be reported to the
barangay level or any proper government agency that has jurisdiction over their case
(Nicanor, 2021).
The television show Raffy Tulfo in Action accepts cases whose jurisdiction is under
the katarungang pambarangay law. and these are some of the following reported cases to

On the study of Gaitenby (2004), online dispute resolution is another way of applying
alternative dispute resolution of its practice and theories in addressing cases. It utilizes online
mediation, negotiation, and arbitration as its primary tools and serves as options in order
reconcile the defendant and complainant. Moreover, Rusakova (2020), stated in his article
that online legal procedure was greatly addressed in the supreme court ruling that online
dispute resolution should have its legal guidelines for ever online dispute resolution case in
within the country of Russia. Relevantly, under the Republic Act 7160, also known as “Local
Government Code of Philippines”, which created the “Katarungang Pambarangay Law”, that
all offenses under the jurisdictions of barangay should follow the proper procedures of
barangay justice system and stated that all cases defined in the latter law should undergo first,
Further, transparent justice boost public trust because being fair through the use of
televising trials as they happen, and giving reporters full access to files and participants so
they can report what happens. Lastly, to show that equal treatment and equal protection of

To understand the conceptual framework clearly, the principle of action model was
utilized in this study. Action model is a pattern that is purposely to give the outline pattern
and process in which the research will go all throughout. It consists of boxes and lines to
make the process more understandable and clear. This will provide a systematic
understanding about legal procedures of katarungang pambarangay, equality and
transparency, and effectiveness of trial by media through social media platforms in giving
justice.
This framework conveyed the perceptions of barangay officials on what are the
implications of social media in giving justice. In the first box, perceptions of the barangay
officials will be determined in relation with the second box, the Tulfo justice’s behavior in
relation to box number three at the bottom, the rendering of justice. The last three boxes are
the variables to be measured, if the Tulfo justice really follows the katarungang pambarangay
law, the tulfo justice portrays equality and transparency, and lastly we want to know the
