MANILA – The Supreme Court has once again stopped the Commission on Elections (Comelec) from implementing a resolution, this time on the extension of the liquor ban.
In a press conference, SC spokesman Theodore Te said the high court issued a temporary restraining order (TRO) on the five-day liquor ban – which is supposed to start tomorrow, May 9.
This means the liquor ban will only start May 12 until May 13.
The high court said the poll body acted without notifying affected parties. The Comelec was ordered to file its comment by tomorrow.
