SECOND DIVISION
[G.R. No. L-9669. January 31, 1956.]
NICANOR G. SALAYSAY, Acting Municipal Mayor of San
Juan del Monte, Rizal, Petitioner, vs. HONORABLE FRED
RUIZ CASTRO, Executive Secretary, Office of the
Another argument against the contention that a ViceMayor acting as Mayor actually holds the office of Mayor,
occurs to us. For purposes of ready reference we again
quote section 27 in its
entirety:chanroblesvirtuallawlibrary
SEC. 27. Candidate holdings office. Any elective
provincial, municipal, or city official running for an office,
other than the one which he is actually holding, shall be
considered resigned from his office from the moment of
the filing of his certificate of candidacy.
It will readily be noticed from the quoted section,
especially the words underlined by us that the Legislature
contemplated only one office, not two or more. To us, this
is significant as well as important. As we have previously
stated, there is no question that a Vice-Mayor acting as
Mayor still holds the office of ViceMayor. Petitioner himself admits this in his written
argument and even contends that there is nothing wrong
or illegal in an official holding two offices at the same
time provided there is no incompatibility between them.
If the Legislature believed that a Vice-Mayor acting as
Mayor actually holds the office of Mayor and that he
would thus be actually holding two offices, then it would
have provided in section 27 for offices in the plural
instead of employing the words office, his office, and the
one which it used in the singular. Besides this clear
expression of legislative intent for only one office being
actually held and to be resigned from, to say that the
Vice-Mayor when acting as Mayor is actually holding two
offices would create confusion and uncertainty because
we would not know which office he would be considered
resigned from.

This case arose out of the unfortunate strikes and walkouts staged by public school teachers on different dates
in September and October 1990. The illegality of the
strikes was declared in our 1991 decision in Manila Public
School Teachers Association v. Laguio, Jr.,[1] but many
incidents of those strikes are still to be resolved. At issue
