Disqualification case
One of the primary issues that Poe faced during the campaign period was the disqualification case filed before the Commission on Elections (Comelec) and later elevated to the Supreme Court about his citizenship. [16] Even though he was born in the Philippines, lawyers, including Maria Jeanette Tecson, who filed the disqualification case argued that Poe was not a natural-born Filipino, a requirement for a presidential candidate, because he was an illegitimate child who should have followed the citizenship of his American mother. In Common law, legitimacy is the status of a Child that is born to parents who are legally married to one another or that is born shortly after the They argued that Poe's father was not a Filipino either because records indicated that Poe's father was a Spanish national. The Supreme Court voted 8-5, with one abstention, in favor of Poe. The high court upheld the previous Comelec ruling and declared Poe was a "natural-born citizen and qualified to run. " [16] Supreme Court Justice Hilario Davide, Jr. said a preponderance of evidence established that Poe's father was a Filipino because Poe's grandfather, Lorenzo, had not declared allegiance to Spain by virtue of the Treaty of Paris and the Philippine Bill of 1902. Hilario G Davide Jr is the current Ambassador - Permanent Representative of the Permanent Mission of the Republic of the Philippines to the United The Treaty of Paris of 1898, signed on December 10, 1898, ended the Spanish-American War.
