PER CURIAM:
Acting on the
second motion for eeconsideration
of the Resolution of June 10, 1986 which dismissed respondent Judge
from
the service with forfeiture of all leave and retirement benefits and
privileges,
filed on behalf of respondent Judge; on the various other letters
seeking
the compassion of this Court on behalf of the respondent Judge and his
children: and on the Resolution No.14 passed by the Pasay City Lawyers
Association similarly seeking reconsideration; the Court resolved, out
of humanitarian considerations for respondent Judge's family, to amend
the dispositive portion of its Resolution of June 10, 1986 to read as
follows:
ACCORDINGLY, this Court finds respondent
Regional
Trial Judge, Manuel V. Romillo, Jr., guilty of grave and serious
misconduct
affecting his integrity and efficiency, and considering the
responsibility
of this Court for the just and proper functioning of the judiciary as
well
as for the maintenance of the people's faith in the dispensation of
justice
in this country, it is hereby ordered that Respondent Judge be
dismissed
from the service. All retirement benefits and privileges to which he
may
be entitled are hereby forfeited with prejudice to being reinstated in
"any branch of government service, including government-owned and/or
controlled
agencies or corporations. He may however, enjoy all vacation and sick
leave
benefits that he has earned during the period of his government
service." [Emphasis supplied].
This Amended
Resolution is immediately executory.
SO ORDERED.
