Jesus Crispin "Boying" Catibayan Remulla (Tagalog pronunciation: [rɛˈmuljɐ]; born March 31, 1961) [citation needed] is a Filipino lawyer and politician serving as the Secretary of Justice since 2022 in the Cabinet of President Bongbong Marcos.

In the latter role, he was an articulate opponent of ABS-CBN and was among the 70 House members who voted to reject the broadcast network's franchise renewal.

During the campaign, he was upset by Cavite Governor Erineo "Ayong" Maliksi, who was a fellow member of Partido Magdalo, because of his support to Silang Mayor Ruben Madlansacay, who ran as independent for congressman.

In 2009, he among with fellow representatives of Cavite – Joseph Emilio Abaya and Elpidio Barzaga, Jr. – authored the biggest congressional reapportionment in the history of the Philippines by passing Republic Act No.

They accused ABS-CBN for tax avoidances (by using shell corporations such as Big Dipper), selling Philippine Depositary Receipts (PDRs) for foreigners (which is a possible violation of 1987 Constitution, prohibiting aliens for owning a mass media in the Philippines), using Channel 43 to continue digital broadcasts after the shutdown on May 5, using ABS-CBN facilities, and submitting an alleged tampered Torrens title.

After claiming continuous victory, Remulla joined with Defensor and Marcoleta for an online conversation via Zoom and streamed on Facebook as they discuss their plans to takeover the ABS-CBN Broadcasting Center in the future.

[10] This forum attracted controversy and their plans to take over the network's compound were slammed by Senate President Tito Sotto and pro-ABS-CBN advocate Christine Bersola-Babao.

[11] However, on May 23, 2022, Remulla accepted the offer to become the Secretary of Justice under the incoming administration of president-elect Bongbong Marcos, thus resigning his rights to the seat before his new term began in order to assume the position.

[18] On July 28, 2022, he also said that he doesn't think that "we need to spend the next 100 years running after the Marcoses" while discussing the functions of the Presidential Commission on Good Government (PCGG) that went after the ill-gotten wealth of the Marcos family.

[21] According to a report of the Commission on Audit, Remulla is the highest paid Cabinet member as of 2023, earning a net pay of ₱7.08 million that year.

[23] On his radio show Executive Session on DZRH,[24] Remulla questioned the large turnout of individuals during a political rally of presidential aspirant and Vice President Leni Robredo conducted in General Trias, Cavite.

He alleged that the supporters of the candidate were paid ₱500 each to join the rally and that some individuals were simply ferried to the venue from other areas of the city to artificially create a large crowd.

He alleged that these students were supposedly trained by the National Democratic Front, a leftist organization with ties to the Communist Party of the Philippines.

[31][32] On October 11, 2022, Juanito Jose Remulla III, then 38, was arrested in Las Piñas for a drug prohibition violation involving ₱1.3 million worth of kush weighing close to 900 grams (32 oz).

Jose Dominic Clavano IV, the DOJ spokesperson, told reporters in a Zoom interview that Remulla was at home care recovery, citing that his immune system remains weak due to medications.

[37] Following a four-month absence since March 4, 2024, Remulla made his first public appearance during the signing of the DOJ–National Prosecution Service’s Revised Rules on Criminal Procedure on July 10.
