MANILA -- Owner of the ill-fated m/v Princess of the Stars filed Monday another civil suit before the Manila Regional Trial Court (RTC), this time seeking a temporary restraining order (TRO) enjoining the Board of Marine Inquiry (BMI) from continuing its investigation into the tragedy.

Named respondents were BMI chairman Rear Admiral Ramon Liwag, Chief Engineers Bonifacio Balentic and Diosdado Ramos, retired Marine Captains Benjamin Mata and Amado Romillo, Commodore Ramon Reblora, and Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) commandant Wilfredo Tamayo.
