The NTC is eyeing on elevating its legal tussle with News and Entertainment Network Corp. (Newsnet) to the Supreme Court after the appellate court rules on the enforcement of an earlier ruling by the Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA). ManilaBulletin

The National Telecommunications Commission is eyeing on elevating its legal tussle with News and Entertainment Network Corp.

The NTC, which has not received a copy of the latest CA resolution, maintained that the mandamus could no longer be enforced after ARTA eventually reversed its Feb. 12, 2022 decision directing the Commission to automatically approve Newsnet’s application to install, operate and maintain a local multi-point distribution system .

“The [ARTA] has already reversed itself so there is no ARTA Decision that can be subject of mandamus,” the NTC said. The OP held that ARTA had no jurisdiction over the assignment of frequencies, the recall of ARTA’s Feb. 12, 2020 order was only proper having been rendered without jurisdiction, and the expiration of Newsnet’s franchise rendered its application moot.

“The latest SC decision in point is ABS-CBN Corporation v. National Telecommunications Commission,” it added.
