In a spirit of unity and shared commitment to public service, RTC Branch 21, Kapatagan, together with MTC Kapatagan, MCTC Lala-Salvador, MTC Sultan Naga Dimaporo, MCTC Sapad-Nunungan, and SCC Kapatagan, jointly celebrated the 125th Anniversary of the Supreme Court of the Philippines.
The gathering brought together judges and court personnel from the participating courts, including Hon. Jihan Gift C. Gonzaga-Morong, Executive/Presiding Judge of RTC Br. 21 Kapatagan, Hon. Bernarda Bantiles-Villanueva, Presiding Judge of MCTC Lala-Salvador, and Hon. Yusoph Abbas, Jr., Presiding Judge of MCTC Sapad-Nunungan and Acting Presiding of MTC SND.
Guided by the theme, βSC: 125 Years of Tradition and Innovation,β the event celebrated the legacy of the Judiciary and its continuing pursuit of innovation in the delivery of justice.
A special highlight of the celebration was a surprise tribute in honor of Hon. Bernarda Bantiles-Villanueva as she approaches her well-deserved retirement from judicial service. The tribute served as a heartfelt expression of gratitude for her years of dedicated service, exemplary leadership, and invaluable contributions to the Judiciary.
As the Supreme Court marks this historic milestone, the participating courts reaffirm their dedication to upholding the ideals of justice, integrity, and excellence in service to the Filipino people.
Forever, Supreme Court!
