"Court Administrator Midas P. Marques has requested Deputy Court Administrator for Luzon, Raul B. Villanueva, to ask Judge Nelson Lago to comment on these news reports," SC spokesman Brian Keith Hosaka said in a message to reporters.
It can be recalled that Judge Lago has issued a subpoena to Baguio traffic enforcers who handed him a ticket for illegal parking and confiscating his car's plate number.
The subpoena was issued to the city's public order and safety division to appear at the sala of Lago and explain why they should not be found in indirect contempt.
Meanwhile, Mayor Benjamin Magalong on Thursday defended the traffic enforcers saying they were only enforcing local ordinance.

"Maayos naman ang pakakasita sa kanya... Nagpapatupad lang tayo ng ordinansa rito," Magalong said in a radio interview.
"Pwedi naman po siyang mag-file ng kaso at i-requestion ang ating ordinansa. Bakit naman gagamiten mo ang iyong posisyon para lang mag-exert ng influence eh alam mo namang mali kayo," Magalong added.
He also said that even his son who once ticketed for illegal parking did not contest, instead paid the fine.
"Iyong mga may awtoridad dapat magpakumbaba sila at sumunod na lang po sa ating batas," he added.

kaya nga, no one is above the law, dapat nga kayo ang example, sabi sa news na nabasa ko from another country, "Filipinos don't need democracy, they need discipline" what can you say sir lago
kahit sino, basta nag violate ng law, should face the consequence. ganyan dapat. its' about time. i'm happy to read this kind of news.
Maybe Judge Lago knows different about the Philippines. Power is normally wielded here for personal advantage, dinpo ba?
Judge lago should also report to supreme court to answer thier question.
any other source?
Judge Lago,, ganito kmi dto sa Baguio,,DISIPLINADO,,
I just wish the City Council will make you a Persona nan Grata here in Baguio forever.
Pa shout out sa customer ko ng Hammer Of Thor Powder. salamat sa pag bili mo sir :) https://www.tribalherbs.org/2018/08/hammer-of-thor-trial-packs-mb6px.html
Judge Lago, you're despicable!! An abhorrence to the judicial system..you are an embarrassment..instead of apologizing,you start yapping..instead of accepting your fault,you hide behind your robe..you are not fit to use that robe..
Same thought
If you visit a place you have to respect it, you have to abide, unless you were harassed. Instead of appreciating these officers who doesn't hesitate to give you a ticket, you used your position to shame those who wears the same clothes as yours. You should not go/travel out of your place if you want to be exempted on what was implemented.
Self serving subpoena. Accuser, witness, at judge pa siya. Galeeng nman nya.
MGA matataas sa position cla pa ang Hindi sumonod ng bayad.NO ONE IS ABOVE.
This is the new Philippines , nobody should be above the law ..... hopefully !
Amen to that.
This traffic enforcer only doing his job and you berate him for it.... Shame on you.
dapat tanggalin sa serbisyo ang mga ganyan..paano na pag sa hawak niyang kaso, bias at unfair na siya
Yehey! Matanggal ka sana abugado ka..kudos at mabuhay kayo mga traffic enforcers.mayor magalong dapat supportahan nu enforcers hanggang saan makaabot!
Kung may Fake News, baka may Fake Judge din. They feel they are entitled
Kamaganak kc ni elago yan
Imahe ng kayabangan ng legal profession. Buti nga upright pa rin ang judicial system to check their ranks. bigyan niyo ng jacket iyan para sumikat.
Needs to review or read back the laws to refresh. The Judge placed himself into an alanganin situation that may affected petitioners/complainants in his sala.???No Parking pa lang eh magsupeona na sya sa sariling sala niya. Dapat sa City Court ng Baguio City ksi the violation happened in there.
Mr. President, would you tolerate that kind of attitude of a "public servant" who just committed and violated a rule in your country? Mr. President teach him a lesson neither give him the equal punishment so he knows and understand the word "DISCIPLINE". He is a judge who just violated a simple rule and yet he can't put his shoes on the ground to be corrected and face the consequence/s of his deed. Mr. President, remember, "A lovable father, and a mercicul & emphathetic head of the family knows how to discipline his sons and daughters when he sees them to do what's is not right thing. That father knows how to exercise the right displinary aspects of his own family."

akala siguro ni Judge ay courtroom niya ang Baguio.
Kung katulad ni Tatay Magalong ang Mayor pwede.
