Supreme Court (File photo) MANILA - The Supreme Court (SC) set aside a decision of the Court of Appeals (CA) which found officials of an Iloilo town liable in a questioned bidding process. Associate Justice Amy Lazaro-Javier of the SC Second Division granted the petition of Sta. Barbara municipal engineer Noel Jaspe and municipal budget officer Ma. Negenia Araneta to dismiss the grave misconduct suit filed against them in connection with a 2006 bidding due the "forced misapplication" of the law. Jaspe was the Bids and Awards Committee (BAC) vice chair while Araneta was a member during the bidding that time for five infrastructure projects, including concreting and asphalting of five streets and the construction of a building. Three bidders secured documents for the projects Topmost Development and Marketing Corp. (TDMC), F. Guerrea Construction Inc. (FGCI), and AFG Construction and Construction Supply (AFG). A BAC member, Agustin Sonza Jr., questioned the withdrawal of TDMC
