	AM No. RTJ-14-2376 2014-03-05	MA. LIZA M. JORDA v. JUDGE CRISOLOGO S. BITAS PERALTA, J.
This is not the first time that respondent judge was found guilty of the offense charged. In the case of Valmores-Salinas v. Judge Crisologo Bitas,[26] the Court had previously imposed a fine of P10,000.00 on respondent judge for disregarding the basic procedural requirements in instituting an indirect contempt charge, with a stern warning that a repetition of the same or similar act shall be dealt with more severely.
