"I don’t know who you think you are, but I for one have no intention of listening to this kind of insolence. "

[edit] Biography

Philo shot in the back by Cad Bane

It is unknown what system Philo represented in the Senate, though it is possible that he was the Senator from the Gran homeworld Kinyen or the colony world of Hok. He may have been the successor of fellow Gran senator Kharrus.

Philo organized a meeting of important Senators in the lobby of the Senate Building in the lead up to a vote on the Enhanced Privacy Invasion Bill. Though Senator Philo managed to rally them together to oppose Supreme Chancellor Palpatine's attempts to pass the law, at that moment the Senator's came under siege by a group of bounty hunters, led by Cad Bane. Philo underestimated Bane's brutality, and attempted to walk away, but was shot in the back by the mercenary and killed.
