Congratulations, Judge Floro!

Its gonna take some time to actually go and read/translate all of those documents in order to give a rational response to this.

(But in the back of my mind, a small voice is screaming “Really?!” “REALLY?!” )

ETA: At first glance, does this ruling really just deal with back pay and the ability of the good Judge to retire, thereby receiving a pension as well?  Or are they actually going to put him and the ‘Rice Krispy Trio” back behind a bench deciding matters that affect people’s lives?

Congrats Judge Floro!!!!

Congrats Judge.  I’m guessing this is a good thing.

Good on you

How will you celebrate? Will there be a bbq?

JUDGE FLORO

AND THE THREE DWARVES

Just months before [URL=http://www.celebrities-galore.com/celebrities/florentino-floro/home/]Floro’s natal day on planet earth[/URL] on [URL=http://www.celebrities-galore.com/celebrities/florentino-floro/birthday-number/]November 5, 1953[/URL], dwarves were utterly ignorant of this kind of animal.

It never crossed my mind that I would be reinstated and fed this fat burger.

It was about March, 2011, the [URL=http://nazarenejfloro.blogspot.com/]Black Nazarene[/URL] lights from my 2 palms were seen by a fortune-teller whom I healed of epilepsy. While reading the tarrot, he predicted that 7 SC Justices of 15 are on my side.

Mr. Larry Domingo, age 84, a [URL=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosicrucianism]Rosicrucianism[/URL] expert since 1960, computed that more than 7 SC Justices are afraid of my dire prophecy. Hence, I filed this 4th appeal on April 1 First Friday, it being the last since the Final Appeal on April 4, 2008, which was denied-expunged from the Rollo by the Court on June 2-3, 2008, exactly 25 years from the first night that LUIS, Armand and Angel appeared to my brother Robert.

Dearest Tah, daveprime, oppiejoe, gray, Sharruma, Peter, and all of you who, once upon a time read this fairy tale,

In the recent case of [URL=http://sc.judiciary.gov.ph/jurisprudence/2011/january2011/176389.htm]People vs. Hubert Jeffrey P. Webb[/URL], the Court held:

“A judgment of acquittal cannot be reconsidered because it places the accused under double jeopardy. The Constitution provides in Section 21, Article III, that:  Section 21.  No person shall be twice put in jeopardy of punishment for the same offense.  x x x” In this regard, the rule on dismissal and reinstatement of judges are on par with the jurisprudence on conviction and acquittal of an accused.

[URL=http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6022/5892651011_d38422e21d_b.jpg]The one sentence April 12, 2011 GRANT Resolution[/URL] is a verdict of acquittal. Meaning therefore, that: Judge Floro’s March 31, 2006 dismissal is reversed IN TOTO, that is, Floro is back, as if there is/was no case filed against the 3 dwarves, and that all the 13 charges (including dwarf-psychosis accusations-findings) are reversed, set aside and a new judgment is rendered forthwith.

Philippine adminstrative and criminal laws on judges and the accused were borrowed from the US Constitution’s [URL=http://Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution]Fifth Amendment[/URL] and CA Federal Rules of Service.

In 2004, the Court established a 2-3 Appeal Rule on dismissal of Judges, that is, one appeal per one dwarf: only 1 motion for reconsideration per 1 duende, so to speak.

[URL=http://www.lawphil.net/judjuris/juri2004/nov2004/am_rtj_03_1812_2004.html]A.M. No. RTJ-03-1812, November 18, 2004, “Soria vs. Judge Villegas”[/URL] provides:

“While indeed a second motion for reconsideration is a prohibited pleading under the 1997 Rules of Civil Procedure, we have allowed it in certain cases. Besides, in administrative cases involving discipline of judges and court personnel, we have allowed second or even third motions for reconsideration whenever justified by the circumstances.The penalty of dismissal from the service which we have imposed on respondent may seem, indeed, to be harsh. There were administrative cases of more serious nature where we have been less harsh. WHEREFORE, in light of the foregoing, the Second Motion for Reconsideration of respondent is hereby given due course, and is partly granted. The penalty of dismissal from the service imposed on respondent is hereby REDUCED to suspension for a period reckoned from the time respondent received a copy of the decision of 19 November 2003 until he shall re-assume office by virtue of this Resolution, which he must do within ten (10) days from notice of this Resolution.”

In the 17 pages [URL=https://skydrive.live.com/P.mvc#!/view.aspx/.Public/jvf41.doc?cid=e76bfff86f9a213f&sc=documents] Verified Omnibus Supplemental Motion-4th Appeal for Reinstatement filed on/dated April 1, 2011[/URL], Judge Floro pleaded to the Court and moved for -

“Accordingly, to Correct-Amend-Revise the Cursed (under Pslams 109/73) Decision and Resolutions (in these cases) dated 31 March 2006 Decision and 11 August 2006 and 12 July 2007, respectively, to this effect: To Rectify, inter alia, the half-truths and falsities: a) that Judge Floro consults dwarves, LUIS, Armand and Angel in writing decisions, B) that Judge Floro is afflicted with psychosis, and c) that Judge Floro delayed these cases for 3 years, inter alia, and

Conditionally, to alternatively Grant this Resignation-Retirement Offer of Judge Floro, after Full Supreme Court Reinstatement xxx.”

[URL=http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6022/5892651011_d38422e21d_b.jpg]The one sentence April 12, 2011 GRANT Resolution[/URL], however, abandoned the Soria vs Villegas 2004 rule: a 4th appeal is now allowed; the Court even GRANTED it, since Floro is now a duende, alien though, with magic lights emanating from his 2 palms annihilating Justices and Philippine journalists by car accidents and dire pains.

In the [URL=http://sc.judiciary.gov.ph/jurisprudence/2006/mar2006/A.M. No. RTJ-99-1460.htm]31 March 2006 Decision[/URL]Ponente Justice [URL=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minita_Chico-Nazario]Minita Chico-Nazario[/URL] (wife of Rod Nazario, manager of Manny Pacquiao, who died of lung cancer on September 23, 2009), ruled:

“The period of three years seems to us the most equitable under the circumstances.  As discussed, if we were to give him more than three years of back salaries, etc., then it would seem that we are rewarding him for his role in delaying the resolution of these cases (as well as the seven cases he filed which were only dismissed on 14 February 2006 at his own bidding).  On the other hand, if we were to peg the period at less than three years then the same would only be a pittance compared to the seven years suspension he had to live through with Damocles

What remains to be resolved by the July 1, 2011 180 pages Letter-Requests is: a) will the Court accept Floro
