| Track record is a record of past performance often taken as an indicator of likely future performance.[13] As a requirement imposed by Ang Bagong Bayani for groups intending to participate in the party-list elections, track record pertains to the actual activities undertaken by groups to uplift the cause of the sector/s, which they represent. | |||||

| In a special civil action for certiorari, the burden is on the part of the petitioner to prove not merely reversible error, but grave abuse of discretion amounting to lack or excess of jurisdiction on the part of the public respondent issuing the impugned order. Grave abuse of discretion means a capricious and whimsical exercise of judgment as is equivalent to lack of jurisdiction.[37] In the present case, the COMELEC did not gravely abuse its discretion. Rather, it decided the matter in accordance with the prevailing laws and jurisprudence. The conclusion of the COMELEC on a matter decided within its competence is entitled to utmost respect.[38] | |||||
