However, when an administrative charge against a judge holds no basis whatsoever in fact or in law, this Court will not hesitate to protect the innocent against any groundless accusation that trifles with judicial process. Neither will We falter in shielding them from unfounded suits that only serve to disrupt rather than promote the orderly administration of justice.[3] | |||||

Finally, the Court restates that it has always been punctilious about any conduct, act or omission that would violate the norm of public accountability or diminish the people's faith in the judiciary. However, when an administrative charge against a court personnel holds no basis whatsoever in fact or in law, this Court will not hesitate to protect the innocent court employees against any groundless accusation that trifles with judicial process. This Court will not shirk from its responsibility of imposing discipline upon employees of the judiciary, but neither will it hesitate to shield them from unfounded suits that only serve to disrupt rather than promote the orderly administration of justice.[31] |
