	AM NO. P-05-1976 2005-09-09	ERLINDA BERGONIA v. ROMEO S. GATCHECO PER CURIAM
Indeed, the primary duty of sheriffs is to execute judgments and orders of the court to which they belong. It must be stressed that a judgment, if not executed, would just be an empty victory on the part of the prevailing party.[4] It is said that execution is the fruit and the end of the suit and is very aptly called the life of the law.[5] It is also indisputable that the most difficult phase of any proceeding is the execution of judgment. Hence, the officers charged with this delicate task must, in the absence of a restraining order, act with considerable dispatch so as not to unduly delay the administration of justice; otherwise, the decisions, orders, or other processes of the courts of justice would be futile.[6]

	AM No. P-02-1576 2003-07-17	VEDASTO TOLARBA v. SHERIFF IV ANGEL C. CONEJERO YNARES-SANTIAGO, J.
At the grassroots of our judicial machinery, sheriffs and their deputy sheriffs are indispensably in close contact with the litigants, hence, their conduct should be geared towards maintaining the prestige and integrity of the court, for the image of a court of justice is necessarily mirrored in the conduct, official or otherwise, of the men and women who work thereat from the judge to the least and lowest of its personnel; hence, it becomes the imperative sacred duty of each and everyone in the court to maintain its good name and standing as a temple of justice. In V.C. Ponce Co., Inc. v. Eduarte,[14] it was held that the sheriff is a court officer primarily responsible for the speedy and efficient service of all court processes and writs originating from his court and the branches thereof and those that may be delegated to him by other courts.
