JOSE LINO LUNA, petitioner-appellee, vs. EULOGIO RODRIGUEZ and SERVANDO DE LOS ANGELES, respondents. EULOGIO RODRIGUEZ, appellant.

G.R. No. L-12647 | 1917-11-26

D E C I S I O N


JOHNSON, J.:

The first question, presented by this appeal, is, Did the opinion of the judge, which he signed on the 14th day of January, 1917, become the decision of the court on the 17th day of January, 1917, the date on which it was filed with the clerk of the court? If it did, then the other questions presented by the appellant must be decided now. If it did not, then there is no decision in the case, and the record must be returned to the court whence it came with direction to proceed to a new trial and to render a judgment in accordance with the law.

These proceedings grew out of an election contest for the office...
