The judge who was dismissed from the bench due to his strange relationship with three “mystic dwarves” has just been eliminated from the race for the post that will be vacated by Supreme Court Chief Justice Reynato Puno in May.
Court Administrator Jose Midas Marquez said yesterday the Judicial and Bar Council (JBC) removed the name of former Malabon Judge Florentino Floro Jr. from the list of possible candidates to replace Puno, thus, leaving eight contenders for the Chief Justice post.
