Description
Summary:Cojuangco-led firm Prime Holdings, Inc. has asked the Supreme Court to reverse its decision that allowed the government to sequester at least 46% of its share in the Philippine Telecommunications Investment Corp. (PTIC), a major stockholder of publicly listed Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (PLDT). The disputed shares held by Prime Holdings represent 46.1250% of the outstanding shares of PTIC, which was the biggest stockholder of PLDT at the time the sequestration case was filed in 1987. The Sandiganbayan earlier denied the plea of the Presidential Commission on Good Government (PCGG) which, since the fall of Mr. [Ferdinand E. Marcos], had been seeking the reconveyance of the 111, 415 PTIC shares held by the Cojuangcos.
