AZCUNA, J.

CORONA, J.
Furthermore, respondent has no right to back wages because she was in fact not completely exonerated.[11] Payment of back wages during the period of suspension or dismissal of a civil servant who is subsequently reinstated is proper only if: (1) he is found innocent of the charges and (2) the suspension or dismissal is unjustified.[12] None of these circumstances obtains here.
