SC
fines, warns
municipal judge
The Supreme Court has fined the judge of the Municipal Trial Court of Sta. Catalina, Oriental Negros, for gross ignorance of the law and procedure, and sternly warned him that a repetition of the act will be dealt with more severely.
In its decision dated Jan. 23, 2006 penned by Associate
Justice Carpio-Morales, the SC, sitting en banc, determined that Judge
Rogaciano Rivera of the Sta. Catalina MTC was remiss in the performance
of his duties when he not only allowed the cross-examination of the
parties during the conduct of preliminary investigation, but also failed
to resolve the criminal complaints within the period mandated by law.

Mantuyop, Siaton, Oriental Negros, recently. The victims were identified as Inoferia Peralta and her son, Richard Peralta, 31, married, both of Brgy. Sumaliring, in Siaton. Witnesses said that, before the collision, Richard, who was driving,
had overtaken the motorcycle driven by Armando Benlot, with Carmencita
Babor as passenger, both of Brgy. Basak, Bais City. While negotiating
the high slope, Richard's motorcycle slammed into the tricycle driven
by Christopher Jimenez, 29, married of Brgy. Maloh, Siaton, which
