    The Supreme Court ruled that a plebiscite is required by the Constitution and Local Government Code to create, divide, merge, abolish or alter the boundaries of a local government unit. However, no plebiscite is necessary for the apportionment or reapportionment of local government units as provided under the relevant laws. The case involved determining whether a plebiscite was needed for the reapportionment of legislative districts in Bagabuyao, Nueva Ecija.
