The Resolution came after Judge Lago issued a subpoena to Baguio traffic enforcers who handed him a ticket for illegal parking and confiscating his vehicle's plate number.

Mayor Magalong questioned why the Judge need to issue a subpoena to the traffic enforcers for merely doing their job while he can just file a case to re-question the city ordinance.
