This after a judge in Negros Oriental was slapped with a P20,000 fine for delaying to resolve cases assigned to his sala before he retired from the service three years ago.


But because Judge Felix G. Gaudiel Jr., who used to preside the Regional Trial Court Branch 64 in Guihulngan town, already retired from service on December 4, 2002, his penalty will be deducted from his retirement benefits.
