Dear PAO,

My sister was an employee of a local government unit and she was unjustly dismissed because of her political affiliation. She filed a complaint before the Civil Service Commission (CSC) against the agency concerned and a decision was rendered reinstating her to her former position. The agency, however, refused to obey the decision despite her several attempts to go back to her work. My relative working with the government said the agency may be ordered to pay a fine in its refusal to obey the decision. Is this true?
