This document summarizes a Supreme Court decision regarding a petition to disqualify former Philippine President Joseph Estrada from running for mayor of Manila in 2013. The petition argued that Estrada was disqualified from running due to his 2007 conviction for plunder by the Sandiganbayan, which sentenced him to reclusion perpetua and perpetual absolute disqualification from public office. However, Estrada had received a pardon from then President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. The Supreme Court upheld the COMELEC's dismissal of the petition, finding that the pardon restored Estrada's right to vote and run for public office.
