MANILA – The Second Division of the Commission on Elections (Comelec) will handle the two other petitions filed against presidential aspirant Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.
In an advisory on Wednesday, the Office of the Clerk of the Commission confirmed that the cases filed by Tiburcio Marcos and Danilo Lihaylihay have been raffled to the division.
Tiburcio filed the petition to cancel the certificate of candidacy (COC) while Lihaylihay submitted a petition seeking to declare the former senator as nuisance candidate.
The first case filed by Fr. Christian Buenafe, et al, was raffled to the division. The case seeks to cancel Marcos’ COC for material misrepresentation.
The preliminary conference meeting on the case will be held on November 26.
The Second Division is composed of Commissioners Socorro Inting and Antonio Kho, Jr.
The camp of the former senator has yet to respond to requests for comment on the petitions. (PNA)
