Petitioner: Nova Communications, Inc., a private corporation, files a petition for certiorari, prohibition, and/or mandamus under Rule 65 in the Supreme Court to annul a final National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) decision suspending its license to operate a satellite-based communications service for alleged regulatory violations. The petition asserts grave abuse of discretion amounting to lack or excess of jurisdiction and contends there is no other adequate remedy. The petition is timely, directed at a final NTC order, and is accompanied by certified copies of the NTC order and supporting affidavits. However, the petition is not verified. (a) Identify the requisites for a petition for certiorari, prohibition, and/or mandamus under Rule 65. (b) Based on the facts, determine whether the petition satisfies these requisites, with emphasis on the verification requirement. (c) If it does not, state the proper remedy to cure the defect and proceed.
