CIRCULAR
NO. 63-96
TO:
ALL
EXECUTIVE JUDGES, CLERKS OF COURT AND SHERIFFS
SUBJECT:
STRICT COMPLIANCE OF P. D. NO. 1079 [REVISING AND CONSOLIDATING ALL
LAWS
AND DECREES REGULATING THE PUBLICATION OF JUDICIAL NOTICES,
ADVERTISMENTS
FOR PUBLIC BIDDINGS, NOTICES OF AUCTION SALE AND OTHER SIMILAR NOTICES].
P. D. No. 1079 was
circularized to all courts as Supervisory Circular No. 4 dated March 8,
1977 and Circular No. 16 dated July 18, 1979.
However, despite
the explicit directives of the decree and the continuous reminders of
this
Court, persistent reports of blatant violations by a majority of the
newspapers
in the entire country beseige this Office.
Hence, the Court
in its Resolution En Banc dated August 6, 1966, directs all
Executive
Judges and Clerks of Court to order all newspapers in their locality
participating
in the raffle of legal and judicial notices to comply strictly with the
provisions of P. D. No. 1079, specially Section 4 thereof, under pain
of
being excluded from said raffle if found violating the same and reminds
the: [1] Sheriffs to strictly comply with the provisions of said
Presidential
Decree; and [2] Executive Judges and Clerks of Court of the provisions
of Section 6 of the same P.D. No. 1079, as failure on their part to
strictly
enforce the provisions of this decree shall be dealt with
administratively.
Strict compliance
herewith is hereby enjoined.
September 9,
1996.
