Dominador Aytona vs Andres Castillo

Dominador Aytona was one of those appointed by outgoing president Carlos


Garcia during the last day of his term. Aytona was appointed as the ad interim
governor of the Central Bank. When the next president, Diosdado Macapagal took
his office, he issued Order No. 2 which recalled Aytonas position and at the same
time he appointed Andres Castillo as the new governor of the Central Bank. Aytona
then filed a quo warranto proceeding claiming that he is qualified to remain as the
Central Bank governor and that he was validly appointed by the former president.
Macapagal averred that the ex-presidents appointments were scandalous, irregular,
hurriedly done, contrary to law and the spirit of which, and it was an attempt to
subvert the incoming presidency or administration.
