With the foregoing interpretation, and as stated heretofore, the ruling that the
imposition of income tax upon the salary of judges is a diminution thereof, and so
violates the Constitution in Perfecto vs. Meer,13 as affirmed in Endencia vs.

ego of the people, have expressed in clear and unmistakable terms the meaning and
import of Section 10, Article VIII, of the 1987 Constitution that they have adopted
Stated otherwise, we accord due respect to the intent of the people, through the
discussions and deliberations of their representatives, in the spirit that all citizens should
bear their aliquot part of the cost of maintaining the government and should share the
burden of general income taxation equitably.
WHEREFORE, the instant petition for Prohibition is hereby DISMISSED.
The ruling that the imposition of income tax upon the salary of judges is a diminution
thereof, and so violates the Constitution in Perfecto vs. Meer, as affirmed in Endencia vs.

This is a petition for review on certiorari under Rule 45 of the Rules of Court, in relation
to Sec. 27 of RA 6770 (The Ombudsman Act of 1989), seeking the annulment of
the Memorandum of the Deputy Ombudsman-Visayas dated 17 July 1997, in Adm. Case
No. OMB-VIS-ADM-95-0088, approved by the Ombudsman, which recommended the
dismissal of petitioner from the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO), Cebu, as
well as the Order dated 30 January 1998 denying petitioners motion for
reconsideration.
Petitioner Douglas R. Villavert is a Sales & Promotion Supervisor of PCSO Cebu Branch
responsible for the sale and disposal of PCSO sweepstakes tickets withdrawn by him,
which are already considered sold. As Villavert is not expected to sell all withdrawn
tickets on his own, he is allowed by the PCSO to consign tickets to ticket outlets and/or to
engage the help of sales agents, usually sidewalk peddlers and hawkers.
