SUBJECT: TIMELY SUBMISSION OF APPLICATIONS UNDER THE EDUCATION SUPPORT PROGRAM FOR THE BAR EXAMINATION

The Supreme Court En Banc through its Resolution dated 27 April 1999
in Administrative Matter No. 99-3-101-RTC established the Educational
Support Program (ESP). Under this Program, all qualified personnel of
the lower courts and the Office of the Court Administrator who wish to
take Bar review classes and the Bar examinations are granted a study
leave on official time for a period of six (6) months, subject to the
conditions prescribed in the 27 April 1999 Resolution.

Pursuant to the Resolution herein referred to, all applications
under the ESP must be filed at least two (2) months before the start of
the official six (6) months study leave. The implementing guidelines
(Circular No. 27-99 dated 31 May 1999 of this Office) on the Educational
Support Program reiterate this filing period.

All lower court employees who wish to avail themselves of the
benefits under the Educational Support Program are reminded and enjoined
to submit their respective applications two (2) months before the
intended starting date of the official leave of absence. The Committee
created for the purpose shall see to the compliance by all applicants
with this requirement prescribed by the 27 April 1999 Resolution.

For information and guidance.
