	AC. No. 7474 2014-09-09	PRESIDING JUDGE JOSE L. MADRID v. ATTY. JUAN S. DEALCA BERSAMIN, J.
On a final note, it cannot escape our attention that this is not the first administrative complaint to be ever brought against Atty. Dealca. In Montano v. Integrated Bar of the Philippines,[39] we reprimanded him for violating Canon 22 and Rule 20.4, Canon 20 of the Code of Professional Responsibility, and warned him that a repetition of the same offense would be dealt with more severely. Accordingly, based on the penalties the Court imposed on erring lawyers found violating Canon 1, Rule 1.03,[40] and Canon 11, Rule 11.04[41] of the Code, we deem appropriate to suspend Atty. Dealca from the practice of law for a period one year.
