Chief Justice Alexander Gesmundo has assured judges nationwide that the Supreme Court would do everything to protect them from threats and harassment.
Speaking during the second day of the Annual Convention of the Metropolitan and City Trial Judges Association of the Philippines in Boracay Island, Aklan, CJ Gesmundo stressed that the judiciary is very serious in ensuring the protection of judges, which are considered as frontliners in delivering justice to the people.
CJ Gesmundo also cited the promulgation of the SC’s decision in Governor Tallado, et al., v. Judge Racoma wherein the Court held that an administrative charge against a judge shall and must be dismissed outright as long as a judicial remedy is available to a complainant. “The Supreme Court under my watch is very serious about protecting our frontliners,” CJ Gesmundo assured.
