Vallejos v Commissioner of Registration
Throughout the rest of October and November, Lam heard arguments and delivered judgments in two further FDH residence cases, namely "Irene R. Domingo and Daniel L. Domingo v. Commissioner of Registration" (HCAL 127 and 128/2010) and "Josephine B. Gutierrez and Joseph James Gutierrez v. Commissioner of Registration" (HCAL 136 and 137/2010). Among those applicants, only Daniel Domingo was found to have satisfied the "ordinary residence" requirement entitling him to apply for permanent residence; Lam found that Domingo's wife Irene's period of ordinary residence was interrupted by a period of overstay in which she remained in Hong Kong without the authority of the Director of Immigration. He separately ruled that Josephine Gutierrez had not taken positive steps to establish Hong Kong as her only place of permanent residence, meaning that she and her son Joseph James were not entitled to apply for permanent residence either.
Susana Barreiros
On 1 March 2003, she entered the roster of the Judicial Branch. On 12 August 2010, the Judicial Commission designated Barreiros as the substitute of Judge María Lourdes Afiuni, imprisoned after delivering an independent sentence in favor of indicted businessman Eligio Cedeño, ending in charge of the First Instance of the Criminal Judicial Circuit of the Metropolitan Area of Caracas. In 2012, the Supreme Tribunal of Justice names her as antiterrorist judge along with lawyer Alí Fabricio Paredes. However, her partner is dismissed after sentencing in favor of drug trafficker Walid Makled. On 6 May 2015, she graduated as magister in criminal law from the Universidad Santa María. On 10 July 2015, she was included as alternate judge to cover vacant positions due to rest permissions, vacations, inhibitions and recusations of the Court of Appeals of the Criminal Judicial Circuit of the Judicial Circumscription of the Metropolitan Area of Caracas.
