INHIBITION OF PRESIDING JUDGE OF A FAMILY COURT
|
The Supreme Court Second Division issued a Resolution dated 24 September 2002, in A. M. No. 10-8-78-RTC, to the effect that:
In cases where the presiding judge of Family Court,
whether multiple or single sala, under A. M. 99-11-07-SC inhibits
himself from trying a case, the same should not be raffled to other RTC
Branches not so specially designated but should instead remain in the
dockets and be taken cognizance of by the pairing judge or in his
absence the executive judge. This rule should apply even where there are
two or more special courts in a particular station.
For the information and guidance of all concerned.
