SYLVIA SANTOS v. JUDGE EVELYN S. ARCAYA-CHUA

This case has been cited 1 times or more.

SERENO, C.J.
In Sylvia Santos vs. Judge Evelyn S. Arcaya-Chua, the Court saw fit to impose a six-month suspension against a judge who likewise committed acts of influence peddling when she solicited P100,000.00 from complainant Santos when the latter asked for her help in the case of her friend Emerita Muñoz, who had a pending case with the Supreme Court, because respondent judge was a former court attorney of the high court.[24] We find that the same penalty is appropriate in the present case.
