ABS-CBN Corp. asked the Supreme Court for a temporary restraining order to stop the implementation of the cease and desist order (CDO) issued by the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) against the network.
The NTC ordered the network to shutdown its operations after the franchise the Kapamiya netork expired last May 4, 2020.

“The NTC violated ABS-CBN’s right to due process by issuing the order without any prior notice or hearing and by ignoring the serious and irreparable damage that the CDO will inflict on ABS-CBN and thousands of its employees,” ABS-CBN said.
“The NTC thus issued the CDO with a threat hanging over its head, made no less by the Government’s own lawyer, of prosecution for graft/corruption. Under such climate, the NTC’s impartiality is at best seriously suspect.” added ABS-CBN in its petition.
