Senators are free to sign the resolution asking the Supreme Court to review its decision to unseat former Chief Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno through a quo warranto petition, Malacanang said on Thursday.

“The senators are free to sign such a resolution. The resolution of course forms part of their inherent legislative powers,” Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque in a Palace briefing.

As of Wednesday, 14 of the 23 senators have signed a resolution requesting the Supreme Court to review its May 11 ruling against Sereno.
