ROBERTO G. BRILLANTE V. HON. SANDIGANBAYAN AND HON. JUSTICES GODOFREDO L. LEGASPI, EFREN N. DELA CRUZ AND NORBERTO Y. GERALDEZ
Sirs/Mesdames:
Please take notice that the Court, Second Division, issued a Resolution dated 01 December 2010 which reads as follows:
G.R. No. 182644* (Roberto G. Brillante v. Hon. Sandiganbayan and Hon. Justices Godofredo L. Legaspi, Efren N. dela Cruz and Norberto Y. Geraldez).-
This Court, in its Resolution of September 15, 2010, affirmed the Sandiganbayan Decision dated September 24, 2007 and modified the penalty imposed on petitioner Roberto G. Brillante from 6 months to 1 month imprisonment. Likewise, the Court directed that the penalty of 1 month imprisonment be served at the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP), Regional Office-National Capital Region, Cradle Compound, Camp Bagong Diwa, Bicutan, Taguig City, under the direct responsibility of the Regional Director therein.
In his letter, J/C Serafin P. Barretto, Jr., Regional Director of BJMP-NCR, Camp Bagong Diwa, Bicutan, Taguig City, informed the Court that the Regional Office is not the proper facility for the confinement of petitioner because it has no jail facility as its sole purpose is for "office only."
Considering the information given by J/C Barretto, Jr., let petitioner be detained instead at the Metro Manila District Jail at Camp Bagong Diwa, Taguig City under the direct responsibility of its Warden. The Jail Warden of Metro Manila District Jail is directed to inform the Court of petitioner's confinement.
Let copies of this resolution be served upon the Regional Director of BJMP-NCR, Cradle Compound, Camp Bagong Diwa, Bicutan, Taguig City and the Jail Warden of Metro Manila District Jail, Camp Bagong Diwa, Taguig City.
SO ORDERED.
