	GR No. 158761 2007-12-04	NATIONAL ELECTRIFICATION ADMINISTRATION v. VICTORIANO B. GONZAGA VELASCO JR., J.
The aforequoted ruling was reiterated in Dadole v. Commission on Audit,[13] De Jesus v. Commission on Audit,[14] and Philippine International Trading Corporation v. Commission on Audit.[15]
	GR No. 143596 2003-12-11	JUDGE TOMAS C. LEYNES v. COA CORONA, J.
On December 3, 2002, we struck down the above circular in Dadole, et al. vs. COA.[14] We ruled there that the Local Government Code of 1991 clearly provided that LGUs could grant allowances to judges, subject only to the condition that the finances of the LGUs allowed it. We held that "setting a uniform amount for the grant of allowances (was) an inappropriate way of enforcing said criterion." Accordingly, we declared that the DBM exceeded its power of supervision over LGUs by imposing a prohibition that did not jibe with the Local Government Code of 1991.[15]
