QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – ABS-CBN is not taking the quo warranto case filed against it sitting down.
The network has announced its top-of-the-line, all-star panel of defense lawyers that will defend its franchise before the Supreme Court. (Solicitor General Jose Calida filed the petition before the High Court this week.)
The ABS-CBN defense panel:
- Vice Ganda
- Dingdong Dantes
- Coco Martin
- Regine Velasquez
- Anne Curtis
- Lorna Tolentino
- Karen Davila
Meanwhile, the Office of the Vice President told The Adobo Chronicles that Leni Robredo , a lawyer, wil file an amicus curiae (a brief as a “friend of the court”) to support ABS-CBN. Robredo earlier said that the quo warranto case filed by the government is an “abuse of power.”
