(see previous post) Correction: The judge who issued the TRO clarified that the TRO was not against Uber and GrabCar, rather, it was against the LTFRB and the DOTC, to stop these agencies from further accepting, receiving, processing, and approving applications, or new applications, for registration and issuance of Certificates of Public Convenience in their favor. The judge stressed this in an interview with DZMM by Anthony Taberna.
In other words, Uber and GrabCar can continue operating. Only new applicants would be prevented as the LTFRB and the DOTC had been temporarily restrained from accepting and processing their applications for 20 days (if the TRO is converted to a preliminary injunction — for the duration of the litigation).
