Marquez’s arrangement paper endorsed by President Duterte was dated Sept. 27. A letter from Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea advising Chief Justice Alexander Gesmundo regarding Marquez’s arrangement was additionally dated Sept. 27.

On Monday, President Duterte reported his arrangement of Cabinet Secretary Karlo Nograles as his acting representative, supplanting Harry Roque who surrendered to run for congressperson in the following year’s elections.Marquez had been applying for the post of partner equity starting around 2017, and surprisingly came to the Judicial and Bar Council’s waitlist.

In 2018, official girl Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio officially documented her resistance to Marquez’s offered for the post of partner equity after he supposedly attempted to have a disbarment body of evidence against her removed purportedly to get favor in the SC arrangement.

The disbarment case originated from an occurrence in 2011 where she punched a sheriff during a destruction activity in Davao.  However, Marquez rejected that he had attempted to persuade the sheriff to pull out the body of evidence against Duterte-Carpio.
