Court denies Raza-Monte-Nepomuceno Petition filed against officials

Branch 94 of the Regional Trial Court's 4th Judicial Region in Marinduque has denied a petition filed by petitioners Eleuterio Raza, Jr., Leticia Monte and Allan Nepomuceno against Jose Antonio Carrion, Tomas Pizarro, Ildefonso delos Santos, Cesaria Zoleta, Yolando Querubin, Jose Alvarez, Nancy Arca-Iturralde and Mark Joseph de Leon. The petition for preliminary prohibitory injunction filed by the three board members of Marinduque's Sangguniang Panlalawigan was denied for lack of merit.

In its decision, the Court with Judge Antonina M. Calderon-Magturo as presiding judge stated thus:

"After a judicious evaluation of the merits of the application, this Court resolves to deny Petitioner's Application for Preliminary Injunction. From the evidence adduced during the hearing of June 28, 2010, Petitioners have not shown and proved any facts relative to the damages or irreparable injury to be suffered by them as a result of the unauthorized re-alignment of funds. Even the purchase order dated June 18, 2010 referred to will not justify the issuance as it was not shown that such would inflict serious damage or irreparable injury to Petitioners."

Copy of the three-page decision dated July 1, 2010, is reproduced below.
