- The Manila Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 34 granted the quo warranto petition and ruled that Guo was ineligible for office because of Chinese citizenship.
- The court cited a lack of credible records for her alleged parents and fingerprint analysis linking her to the Chinese national Guo Hua Ping.
- At the time of the report, Guo had been detained for nearly 10 months on a qualified human trafficking charge and was also facing money laundering and graft charges.
- The court declined to treat the case as moot after the 2025 elections because it considered the matter a national security risk, while Joey Salting’s term was set to begin on June 30.
"Just imagine a foreign individual, who was allowed to stay in the Philippines, was able to circumvent the law by posing herself as Filipino citizen in order to meet the citizenship requirement to enter public office and ultimately, assumed the powers and functions of Mayor of Bamban, Tarlac. Such a situation posed a risk to national security which is far more than real,"— Judge Liwliwa Hidalgo-Bucu, Manila Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 34, in the decision dated June 27
After a Manila court ruled to nullify Alice Guo's mayoralty in Bamban, Tarlac, a senator warned that this should serve as a lesson to all.
