CIRCULAR
NO. 34-98
TO : ALL CLERKS
OF COURTS OF REGIONAL TRIAL COURTS, METROPOLITAN TRIAL COURTS,
MUNICIPAL
TRIAL COURTS IN CITIES, MUNICIPAL CIRCUIT TRIAL COURTS, MUNICIPAL TRIAL
COURTS, SHARI'A DISTRICT COURTS AND SHARI'A CIRCUIT COURTS
SUBJECT : CHANGE
IN JUDICIARY DEVELOPMENT FUND [JDF] SAVINGS ACCOUNT NUMBER
The Land Bank of
the Philippines [LBP] - Taft Avenue Branch has called our attention to
the continued usage of Savings Account No. 159-01163-1 by several of
our
lower courts when depositing collections accruing to the JDF although
the
aforesaid account number had been changed to 0591-0116-34 upon the
cited
branch's availment of the "on-line deposit facility" on June 18,
1993.
As a precautionary
measure, LBP branches all over the country were advised that deposits
made
under the old number shall be credited to the new account number.
However,
this should not be used as an excuse by courts to skirt a
responsibility.
In view hereof, all
Clerks of Courts/Accountable Officers concerned are hereby directed to
utilize the new number in all JDF deposit transactions with the
bank.
June 4, 1998.
