	AM No. MTJ-02-1412 2003-03-28	BERNIE G. MIAQUE v. JUDGE NILO P. PAMONAG YNARES-SANTIAGO, J.
Ignorance of the law, which everyone is bound to know, excuses no one certainly not judges. Ignorantia juris quod quisque scire tenetur non excusat. The provisions of Article 360 of the Revised Penal Code, as amended by R.A. No. 4363, on the persons authorized to conduct preliminary investigation in libel cases is so elementary, not to know it constitutes gross ignorance of the law.[1]
