CONCEPCION, J.:

This is an action to annul a municipal ordinance and cancel a contract of lease of part of "Callejon del Carmen," in the City of Manila. Its Mayor and the Genato Commercial Corporation - hereinafter referred to as Genato, for the sake of brevity - lessor and lessee, respectively, under said contract, are the respondents herein. After due trial, the Court of First Instance of Manila rendered a decision dismissing the petition, with costs against the petitioner, who has appealed from said decision. The case is before us because the validity of a municipal ordinance is involved therein.

Petitioner, Cipriano...
