THE Supreme Court has acquitted former Sto. Tomas, Isabela mayor Antonio Talaue of charges related to the non-remittance of Government Service Insurance System contributions for municipal employees.In a decision written by Associate Justice Samuel Gaerlan, the Supreme Court's Special First Division ruled that Talaue was not responsible for remitting GSIS contributions, overturning a Sandiganbayan conviction.
The unpaid remittances led GSIS to file a case for collection and damages against the municipality, with a resulting liability of P25,444,429.92 established in a 2008 memorandum of agreement .The Office of the Ombudsman held Talaue criminally liable under the GSIS Act of 1997, which penalizes government heads for non-remittance of contributions.
