Court stops LTO license card deal

Branch 215 Judge Rafael Hipolito issued a temporary restraining order to Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista and Land Transportation Office Chief Vigor Mendoza II not to proceed with the award.

The backlog is 1.7 million as of this month, “mounting every day considering the number of applications we are receiving for new, and the renewal of driver’s license on a daily basis,” it stressed. It claimed that the DOTr issued the award to Banner even though the period to file a protest was not yet through. Hipolito said there was merit in the petition of AllCard Inc. through its vice president for sales Carlo Enrico Jarlego to stop the awarding of a supply contract to Banner Plasticard.

“This case, unfortunately, reeks with unfairness or injustice to the petitioner who was clearly deprived of its right to due process and deserving judicial intervention,” the court’s order read.
