In July 1995, Marcos was convicted by the Quezon City RTC Branch 105 for failure to file income tax returns and pay income taxes from 1982 to 1985. He was sentenced to serve a total of seven years in prison and ordered to pay a fine for several counts of violation of the National Internal Revenue Code.
“He has not served his sentence. This means that the BBM disqualification under Section 12 of the Omnibus Election Code has not been lifted,” he added.Carpio noted that under Section 12 of the Omnibus Election Code, any person convicted of a “crime involving moral turpitude shall be disqualified to be a candidate and to hold any public office.”
“Because the law says ‘any crime,’ it is immaterial whether or not the crime involves moral turpitude. It is also immaterial if the rest of the sentence has been served as the disqualification takes effect immediately upon finality of the judgment,” Carpio said. “In short, starting August 8, 2001, BBM was already perpetually disqualified from holding any public office, from voting and from participating in any election,” Carpio went on.
