Aspects of Due Process of Law (Sec. 1, Art. III)

1. Procedural due process – refers to the method or manner by which the law is enforced. The indispensable requisites of this aspect of due process are the requirements of notice and hearing.

2. Substantive due process – requires that the law itself is fair, reasonable and just. In other words, no person should be deprived of his life, liberty, or property for arbitrary reasons or on flimsy grounds.
