Former Puerto Princesa Mayor Edward Hagedorn has been formally charged at the Sandiganbayan over his alleged undeclared wealth. Hagedorn is accused of making false representations in his Statements of Assets, Liabilities and Net Worth for the years 2004 to 2012. The allegedly undeclared properties include a total of 59 properties with a total area of 132.57 hectares (1.3 million square meters). Hagedorn also allegedly possessed five vehicles that he failed to disclose for his 2004 SALN. In May 2015, Ombudsman Conchita Carpio Morales issued a resolution finding probable cause to indict Hagedorn for criminal charges in connection with the allegedly undisclosed assets.
