Albay Governor Noel Rosal said that he remains hopeful the Supreme Court will issue a temporary restraining order in his favor against the finality of the disqualification ruling meted against him by the Comelec.
According to Comelec’s “certificate of finality,” “No restraining order has been issued by the Supreme Court within five days from receipt of the parties of the Resolution that would preclude 18 November 2022 Resolution of this Commission from being final and executory.”
As of Sunday, Rosal is not yet stepping down from office as a writ of execution is yet to be issued by officials from the Department of the Interior and Local Government connected to the Comelec decision. Vice Governor Grex Lagman is set to become governor of Albay should Rosal be finally told to leave office based on the rule of succession.On Friday, Civil Disturbance Management personnel of Albay police were deployed to the Albay capitol after rumors began circulating that a rally will be staged against Rosal’s administration. The rumors turned out to be untrue. MICHAEL B. JAUCIAN INQ
