The petition to cancel COC of presidential aspirant Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr. has no basis and is unlikely to move forward according to former Justice Sec. and Ateneo Law School professor Atty. Alberto Agra.

The petition to cancel or deny the certificate of candidacy of presidential aspirant and Partido Federal ng Pilipinas standard-bearer Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr. has no basis and is unlikely to move forward according to former Justice Secretary and Ateneo Law School professor Atty. Alberto Agra.

“Nakalagay dun sa Omnibus Election Code natin na kailangan hindi convicted. Ibang termino ang nakalagay sa batas. Ang nakalagay sa batas kailangan sentenced, may final judgment of imprisonment. Ang nangyari nung binasa ko ang kaso, wala si presidentiable BBM, hindi siya sentenced to imprisonment. Guilty siya to pay a fine ,” Agra pointed out.

According to the Ateneo law professor, the law states that in order to cancel the COC of a candidate, he or she must be found guilty and punished with more than 18 months imprisonment and be convicted of a crime involving ‘moral turpitude.’ “Moral turpitude, kung medyo halang ka, bastos, immoral, talagang gusto mong mandaya o manggulang.

Sa tambay sa kanto, pag walang pumiyok tuloy ang ligaya. Pag meron pumiyok, huli ka, akin ka. Disqualification should proceed ASAP, no ifs, no buts.

Ang linaw ng nakasulat sa batas.

Right! The move to disqualify BBM is a clear indication that they are afraid of losing against him.

Let COMELEC decide… fact is still BBM did not file his tax returns. He did not pay taxes for three years. Kund di siya nahuli di siya magbabayad. Ganyan siya kasama or ganyan siya kabobo…

This nation shall be great again BONG BONG MARCOS LabanMarcosJr

Yay! MARCOS LATTA

How much?

Correct!!!!

He’s a professor and he is entitled to his personal opinion. Let’s see, what or how the Comelec twist the law in favor of the son’s dictator

Desperado na talaga sila kase alam nila na malakas si BBM ngayon at di nila kayang manalo sa botohan kaya yan lahat ginagawa para di manalo BBM pasensya na kayo BBM padin at wala nang makakapigil🎗🖕❌

In the very first place, the petition to cancel can never gain ground at all. The Comelec cannot acquire jurisdiction over a petition filed beyond the 25 day period after the COC has been filed by BBM! To do so would make whatever proceedings null and void!

This is done by the Yellowaste evils..Yellows are excellent in black propagandas against thier opponents..Yellows are dirty player in political arena since Cory..🤣👎👊 Yellows are behind this mess..👊

26yrs since 1995 'tax evasion' case. Are the detractors of the Marcos family been watching that Mafia movie entitled:'Capone', where Mafia Al Capone bootlegged whiskey during the 50s when booze was illegal but could not pin mafia down except by tax evasion?! Adverse comparison🇵🇭

Publish the names of those in CA who let him go with just a “penalty”!

Who can stop for bong bong for candidancy you just a human, only God can tell who he want to be a president.

A contrary opinion. Its up to the COMELEC now and eventually the high court. Regardless of the outcome, the fact remain that he violated the law for not filing his ITR for four years in succession...A clear sign that he has no regard for the law.

In a country where criminals can run for public offices, curruption prevails.

MacarioBonifac1 Opinion Lang Yan Ng Langaw,.. Nasaan ba yung TAE,.!! LeniKiko2022

Let the 'experts in law matters' discuss the case of disqualification of BBM, so the public may be guided in their decision.

It very clear it’s just an act of desperation … dahil alam nila wala silang laban … kulelat all the time 🥺🙄🥺😳🙄

Iyak na naman dito ang mahihina ang mental health.

korek

Yare ka atenista ka. Icaccancel k ng mga kauri mo... Parang sila trixy lng. Cinacancel ng UP...🤣 buti n lng sa mababang paaralan kami nakapagtapos. Kasi dun. Kung ano paniniwala mo walng pakilaamanan...haha...

NPA and criminals are scared of him, BBM's reign will be their death - isn't that reason enough? 🤔

Ay ayaw ng dilaw yan...sila nga gumagawa lahat ng paraan maalis lang sa listahan si marcos ... Kulang na lang pati pag tae at ihi sitahin na lang nila...how pathetic 🤦🤦

Sa mga nagkokoment.. try nyo po basahin yung mismong decision ng Court of Appeals sa kaso ni BBM..andun po lahat naka explain para po maintindihan natin lahat. Malaya po tayo makapag bigay ng opinion.basta igalang lang ang isat isa.

Sige Iyak na mga Ulol Ipilit

This filing is stupidity at its highest peak. We all know that comelec will not disqualify Marcos, this will only create an illusion that we are afraid of him winning and will turn off a lot of undecided voters. Stop this shit.

Guilty of tax evasion, not just in a single year but 4 years. Langyang justice system ito. Kung tayong mga simpleng tao, kelangan at walang exempted sa tax laws, perong itong ambisyosong sinungaling na presidentiable, okay lang? Tangina nyo, kaya andaming loko2 sa pwesto eh.

what is tax evasion ?

kikopangilinan at ang kanyang tropa..

Khit ano pa drawing gagawin ng abogado ni liar ressa hndi p rin magtagumpay! Todo manira mas mananaig pa rin ang katotohan at tagumpay ni BBM2022 for President in 2022 election sya SINISIGAW ng mamayan pilipino! 💯 🙏

The numbers in favor of BBM is irreversible. Disqualification is just one of the many black prop of the opposition.

KANYANG OPINION IYON, BUT I TRULY BELIEVE BONG BONG MARCOS WILL DISQUALIFY BASE ON THE BIR INTERNAL CODE PARAGRAPH 253-C, IF A CONVICTED PERSON IS PUBLIC OFFICER, THEN HE/SHE PERPETUALLY DISQUALIFY HOLDING ANY PUBLIC POSITION

Unga Naman Mga UTO UTO At BUGOK! Na Mga DDS At MARCOS History Revisionist? Mga Dating BALIW! Ata Ang Mga Ito! Masamang Pangitain Sa Administrasyong Duterte! Puro Kamalasan Nanyari Sa Mundo! Better To Oust! The Mad Of Asia To Stop The Killings!

I like how justices and academics come out in the open and from different institutions that were formerly associated with just the elitist. Ang hilig hilig kasing gumamit ng kampo ni Leni ng collective names in favor of her. Like bedans for Leni. Boracay for Leni. Very misleading

raissawriter

Very good justice system of the Philippines…impressive…convicted and tax evader can be President…lol
