29 October 2025 — The Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA) welcomes the recent Decision of the Court of Appeals (CA) dated 10 October 2025, which denied the appeal of a former Land Transportation Office (LTO) employee apprehended in an entrapment operation conducted on 16 May 2022.
The accused, a former employee of the LTO–Novaliches, Quezon City, was apprehended for alleged fixing activities in violation of Section 21 of Republic Act No. 11032, or the Ease of Doing Business and Efficient Government Service Delivery Act of 2018.
On 25 July 2023, the Court found the accused guilty of violating the said Act. Aggrieved by the ruling, she elevated the case to the Quezon City Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 87, which subsequently denied the appeal but modified the penalty imposed through its Decision dated 06 May 2024.
Despite the denial, Ms. Doringo filed Motions for Reconsideration, both of which were denied. The Court reaffirmed its Decision in May 2024 and its Order in January 2025.
This case is proof that the government is serious about holding accountable those who violate the law.
ARTA, as the lead implementing agency of RA 11032, remains steadfast in its mandate to ensure that government processes are free from corruption and illegal practices. There shall be no room for fixers and unlawful activities in public service.
