DAVAO CITY.  Davao City lawyers and the affected individuals who intervened in the aerial spraying case between the city government and the Pilipino Banana Growers and Exporters Association separately asked the Court of Appeals to reconsider their decision thrashing the constitutionality of the Davao ordinance that imposed a ban on the chemical application practice.

In its motion for reconsideration (MR), the city lawyers headed by Atty. Melchor Quitain, said the decision of the CA Justices in Cagayan de Oro “is erroneous in that it utterly disregards prevailing constitutional norms and statutory provisions, and in patent direct collision with the evidences at hand and the attendant circumstances surrounding the case.”
