We'll sue if stopped - Ramos
BY CHRYSEE SAMILLANO
The legal counsel of Bacolod City Water District director Marichi Ramos said they will file charges against anyone who tries to prevent her from sitting on the BACIWA Board.
Roger Reyes said the Court has ruled that Ramos is qualified to sit as a member of the BACIWA Board. He also said Ramos was not paid her per diems since October 2013.
The Regional Trial Court Branch 44, in a writ of preliminary injunction it issued, directed Local Water Utilities Administration officer-in-charge of the Office of the Acting Administrator Manuel Yoingco et al, to cease and desist from enforcing his order dated Oct. 14, 2013 that denied the confirmation of Ramos as director of the BACIWA.   |
