Administrative Order No. 282, September 30, 1958

MODIFYING ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 257 DATED DECEMBER 28, 1953, CONCERNING MR. SALVADOR M. GAYAO, FORMER JUSTICE OF THE PEACE OF MANABO, BOLINEY AND DANAC, ABRA

This is a request for reconsideration of the decision in the administrative case against Mr. Salvador M. Gayao who was removed as justice of the peace of Manabo, Boliney and Danac, Abra, for partiality and abuse of authority, under Administrative Order No. 257 dated December 28, 1953.

After considering, among other things, the length of time that has elapsed since his dismissal and his subsequent election in 1955 by the people of Abra as provincial board member which may be taken as operating somehow to purge him of his past misdeeds or mistakes, I believe that the severity of his removal may now be tempered.

WHEREFORE, Administrative Order No. 257 dated December 28, 1953, is hereby modified in the sense that respondent should be considered resigned, without right to any benefits under the law.

Done in the City of Manila, this 30th day of September, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hunder and fifty-eight, and of the Independence of the Philippines, the thirteenth.

President of the Philippines
