The Governor of Cebu, Gwendoly Garcia asked the Court of Appeals to stop the suspension order against her from an administrative case way back in 2010.
The laywers of Gov. Garcia filed with the Court of Appeals a petition for Temporary Restraining Order (TRO). The case will be handled by CA’s Twelfth Division under (–foul word(s) removed–)ociate Justice Vicente Veloso.
The petition comprised of “three-volume rollo.” According to some sources the Twelfth Division might be unable to resolve the petition within the day because of the “voluminous records” included in the petition.
Cebu Governor Gwen Garcia’s administrative case was lodged by the Vice Gov. Gregorio Sanchez Jr., who accused her of committing acts of usurpation, including the hiring of employees, consultants and slashing the budget of the Office of the Vice Governor.
According to Malacañang they have already appealed to Garcia to accept the suspension but she defied the order and instead issued an order to all provincial hall employees not to recognize directives from acting governor Vice Governor Agnes Magpale.
