After a restudy of the administrative case against former Justice of the Peace Gregorio E. Edillo of Liloan and Pintuyan, Leyte, I am satisfied that sufficient justification exists for modifying the decision thereon removing him from office. In view thereof, Administrative Order No. 166, dated December 31, 1955, is hereby modified in the sense that the respondent is considered resigned without prejudice to reinstatement.

Done in the City of Manila, this 15th day of March, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and fifty-six, and of the Independence of the Philippines, the tenth.

(Sgd.) RAMON MAGSAYSAY
President of the Philippines
