[ ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 209, August 01, 1956 ]
AMENDING ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 162 DATED DECEMBER 28, 1955, BY FIXING THE EFFECTIVITY OF THE SUSPENSION OF CONSUL HORTENCIO J. BRILLANTES, ETC.
Under Administrative Order No. 162 dated December 28, 1955, Mr. Hortencio J. Brillantes was suspended without pay for a period of one year as Philippine Consul in Seattle, Washington, U.S.A., as a result of the charges filed against him by Mrs. Victoriana A. Gaerlan. Considering that from July 18, 1955, to the date of the promulgation of said order on December 28, 1955, Mr. Brillantes was virtually under suspension because he was not put to active duty nor entitled to leave with pay, his suspension can be, as it hereby is, made effective as of July 19, 1955.1âшphi1
In view of the wide publicity given to the case of Consul Brillantes in his place of assignment, he should be transferred to another post in the interest of the service.
Done in the City of Manila, this 1st day of August, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and fifty-six, and of the Independence of the Philippines, the eleventh.
