    Judge Paderanga referred a civil case involving reconveyance and quieting of title to mediation at the Philippine Mediation Center. When both parties failed to appear for the mediation conference, Judge Paderanga dismissed the case. This led to an administrative case being filed against the judge for gross ignorance of the law. However, Judge Paderanga was found not guilty as dismissal is an appropriate sanction for failure to appear at pre-trial or mediation under the Rules of Court.

    Judge Paderanga referred Civil Case for mediation to the Philippine Mediation Center
    (PMC), which is an action for reconveyance and quieting of title. The mediator has
    reported that both parties failed to appear at the Philippine Mediation Center. For
    failure of the parties to obey an order to appear at the mediation conference, Judge
    Paderanga dismissed the case. An administrative case was filed against him.

    Whether presiding judge acted for gross ignorance of law.

    Judge Paderanga is not guilty of gross ignorance of the law and procedure. To be held
    liable for gross ignorance of the law, the judge must be shown to have committed an
    error that was gross or patent, deliberate or malicious. Since mediation is part of Pre-
    Trial, the trial court shall impose the appropriate sanction including but not limited to
    censure, reprimand, contempt and such sanctions as are provided under the Rules of
    Court for failure to appear for pre-trial, in case any or both of the parties absent
    himself/themselves, or for abusive conduct during mediation proceedings. Failure of the
    plaintiff to appear at pre-trial shall be cause for dismissal of the action.
