On July 14, 2017, the Ombudsman of the Philippines filed criminal cases before the Sandiganbayan against Estrella's father, Ex-Mayor Romeo M. Estrella (for violations of Section 3 (e) of Republic Act 3019, Anti Graft and Corrupt Practices Act, Section 59 Book V of the Administrative Code of 1987 and Article 171 (4) of the Revised Penal Code). The charges specified that the former Mayor allegedly appointed his niece Julieta Estrella-Laguna, as the municipal government's labor general foreman in violation of the Civil Service rules against nepotism.[4]
