Paper firm scores
SC
ruling on mining contracts |
|
High court’s decision paves way for ZTE Corp. to
explore Diwalwal Gold Rush area |
|
By William B. Depasupil Reporter
THE Supreme Court Third
Division’s ruling cancelling all mining
contracts within the Diwalwal Gold Rush Area may have handed the
common ownership of Filipinos over natural resources to small groups
of “tribesmen.”
In a 37-page manifestation, with
an urgent appeal for referral of its case to the High Court en banc,
a paper manufacturing firm, the Picop Resources Inc., urged the
Court en banc to take a second look at November 29, 2006 ruling of
the High Court’s Third Division, which, it claimed, radically
altered long-standing principles of law and legal doctrines.
