The Supreme Court (SC) on Monday warned the public of a fake document circulating online that bears the title “Supreme Court Receives Petition on 16 Million Signatures Calling for President Marcos’ Resignation.”

In a statement from SC Office of the Spokesperson, the High Tribunal categorically denied the authenticity of the document.

“These acts of disinformation, including previous false reports on March 11, 2025, alleging that the Supreme Court issued a temporary restraining order, will be submitted for appropriate action. The Supreme Court will investigate these incidents and take necessary measures, including the imposition of proper sanctions on those responsible,” the SC said.

The High Court is urging the public to rely only on official announcements published on its official website (sc.judiciary.gov.ph) and verified social media accounts.

Likewise, it encourages the public to verify the authenticity of any statement claiming to be from the SC before disseminating it.

The said post particularly came from Facebook accounts under the names “Choose Libungan” and “Bernard Flores Maicon” dated March 16.

The High Tribunal also noted that it is also false that the SC en banc will convene on Monday to discuss the alleged petition as claimed by said Facebook accounts.
