Published May 11, 2021, 1:39 PM Presidential Electoral Tribunal Former Sen. Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. asked the Presidential Electoral Tribunal (PET), composed of all Supreme Court (SC) justices, to reconsider its decision that dismissed his election protest against Vice President Ma. Leonor “Leni” Robredo in the 2016 vice presidential election. In a unanimous vote of 15 justices, the PET last Feb. 16 upheld the victory of Vice President Robredo. Seven justices voted to dismiss Marcos’ protest while eight justices voted in the result – the dismissal of the protest. The decision was written by Associate Justice Marvic M.V.F. Leonen. In his motion for reconsideration, Marcos told the PET to “proceed with the presentation of evidence for the third cause of action.”
