Sitchon vs. Aquino 98 Phil 458

DIOSDADO A. SITCHON, ET AL., petitioners-appellants, vs. ALEJO AQUINO, in his capacity as City Engineer of the City of Manila, respondent-appellee.

G.R. No. L-8191 | 1956-02-27

CONCEPCION, J.:

These are six (6) class suits against the City Engineer of Manila to enjoin him from carrying out his threat to demolish the houses of petitioners herein, upon the ground that said houses constitute public nuisances. In due course, the Court of First Instance of Manila rendered separate, but substantially identical, decisions adverse to the petitioners, who have appealed therefrom directly to this Court. Inasmuch as the fact are not disputed and the same issues have been raised in all these cases, which were jointly heard before this Court, we deem it fit to dispose of the appeals in one decision.

1. Case No....
