NOW: SCPIO chief Brian Keith Hosaka holds press conference confirming PET's unanimous junking of the election protest filed by defeated VP candidate Bongbong Marcos against VP Leni Robredo. All 15 members were present -- 7 fully concurred in dismissal, 8 concurred in results.

Hosaka declines to answer if the PET decision can still be appealed. He was also not given copy of the resolution so he could not disclose yet gist of the dispositive portion. | via @mikenavallo

Hosaka says deliberations of PET tribunal are highly confidential. Says this is the first time parties will be informed about the PET ruling. | via @mikenavallo

Can Marcos still appeal? Former SC spox Ted Te says that while motion for reconsideration is possible, it will be "extremely difficult to reverse" saying the votes of some justices concurring only in the result means they had different reasons but same conclusion. | @mikenavallo

Marcos spox Vic Rodriguez says they will issue statement once facts have been established based on official document or pronouncement from PET. | via @mikenavallo

Contrary to statement of Marcos’ spox that only the second cause of action has been junked, Supreme Court clarifies the entire election protest was dismissed. Also dismissed is VP Leni Robredo’s counter-protest. | via @mikenavallo
