MANILA, Philippines — The Supreme Court (SC) on Monday denied the existence of a petition calling for President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s resignation and vowed to impose sanctions on peddlers of disinformation.

In a statement, the Office of the SC spokesperson Camille Ting disowned a circulating document bearing the title “Supreme Court Receives Petition on 16 Million Signatures Calling for President Marcos’ Resignation,” stating that the office has never issued such a document.

“Further, the same Facebook accounts claimed in separate posts that the Supreme Court En Banc will convene today, March 17, 2025, to discuss the alleged petition. This is completely untrue,” the SC said.

“The Supreme Court has not received any such petition, and no En Banc session is scheduled today for this matter,” it added.

With this, the SC said it would investigate these acts of disinformation and take necessary measures, ”including the imposition of proper sanctions on those responsible.”

It urged the public to rely only on official announcements published by the SC on its official website and verified social media.
