MANILA, Philippines — A senatorial aspirant for the 2022 national polls secured a halt order from the Supreme Court to enjoin the Commission on Elections resolution declaring him as a nuisance candidate, just as the poll body gears up for the printing of ballots for the coming elections.

 

The SC en banc issued a Temporary Restraining Order to keep the poll body from enforcing its resolutions dated Dec. 13, 2021 and Jan. 3, 2022 that declared Norman Cordero Marquez a nuisance candidate and cancelled his Certification of Candidacy for senator, and denied his appeal, respectively.
