SERENO, C.J. |

| Court personnel must at all times act with strict propriety and proper decorum so as to earn and rebuild the public's trust in the judiciary as an institution.[11] This Court has consistently ruled that the Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees enunciates the State's policy of promoting a high standard of ethics and utmost responsibility in the public service.[12] And no other office in the government service exacts a greater demand for moral righteousness and uprightness from an employee than the judiciary.[13] Every employee of the judiciary should be an example of integrity, uprightness and honesty.[14] | |||||
