Solicitor General Jose C. Calida asked the Supreme Court (SC) on Tuesday, April 27, to dismiss all the 37 petitions that challenged the constitutionality of the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) of 2020.
During the online oral arguments, Calida said the enactment of ATA is political in nature that cannot be delved into by the courts, there are supervening events that warrant the dismissal of the petitions, and petitioners do not have legal standing to challenge the law.

Calida told the SC that ATA “is not an instrument of oppression and neither is it a tool to suppress the vibrance of our democracy.”
