In inheritance feud, Supreme Court clears ‘Yanson 2’ lawyer of misconduct

MANILA, Philippines – The Supreme Court (SC) First Division has reversed its August 2023 resolution that found a lawyer for the so-called “Yanson 2” siblings — Leo Rey Yanson and Ginnette Yanson-Dumancas — guilty of violating the lawyer’s oath and suspending him for one year. 

Both Leo and Ginnette, together with their mother, Olivia, now control the Yanson Group, owner of the Philippines’ largest transport fleet with around 5,000 bus units and 18,000 workers.
