Olalia said the group would file a motion for reconsideration (MR) on or before Nov. 26. He said NUPL, which was one of the petitioners who questioned President Duterte’s order, received a copy of the high court’s ruling only last Friday. Olalia said they had already asked the court to again issue a status quo ante order while they’re preparing their appeal. Olalia expressed hope they could still sway the minds of three justices to turn the earlier ruling (9-5) in their favor. Former Rep. Neri Colmenares hoped the administration would not fast track the burial and wait for the court’s decision on their MR.
