VENUE IN CRIMINAL CASES AS MIGRANT WORKERS AND OVERSEAS FILIPINOS ACT OF 1995:

     There is nothing arbitrary or unconstitutional in Congress fixing an alternative venue for violations of Section 6 of R.A. 8042 or otherwise known as Migrant workers and Overseas Filipinos Act of 1995 (allowing the filing of criminal actions at the place of residence of the offended parties) that differs from the venue established by the Rules on Criminal Procedure.
