    This document summarizes a Supreme Court case from 1990 regarding two proclamations issued by the Philippine government over land in Pasay City, Pasig, Makati, Taguig, Paranaque, and Rizal. The court found that while the original owner of the land had transferred ownership to the US and then back to the Philippines, the government proclamations reserving the land for veterans and military purposes were still valid assertions of state ownership over the property, even without explicit proof of prior government ownership. The proclamations were issued based on the government's dominical authority and sovereignty over public land.

    GR No.

    81564, April 26, 1990

    Acting Registrars of Land Titles and Deeds of Pasay City, Pasig and Makati
    Vs.
    RTC, Branch 57, Makati, MM

    FACTS:
    On November 5, 1985, Domingo Palomares, as administrator of the heirs of
    Delfin Casa, commenced suit with Regional Trial Court, Branch 132, Makati, Metro
    Manila for declaratory relief, quieting of title, cancellation of Transfer Certificate of Title
    No. 192, and cancellation of entries upon Original Certificate of Title No. 291

    However, during the trial, the court found hard evidences on record that: (1) the
    property covered by OCT No. 291 had been conveyed to the United States of America;
    (2) it had been later ceded to the Republic of the Philippines; and (3) as a consequence,
    OCT No. 291 was cancelled upon final orders of Judge Ostrand.

    Meanwhile, during the pendency of the case, Proclamation No. 192


    (“RESERVING FOR THE VETERANS CENTER SITE PURPOSES CERTAIN PARCEL
    OF LAND OF THE PUBLIC DOMAIN SITUATED IN THE PROVINCE OF RIZAL,
    ISLAND OF LUZON”) and Proclamation No. 423 (“RESERVING FOR MILITARY
    PURPOSES CERTAIN PARCELS OF THE PUBLIC DOMAIN SITUATED IN THE
    MUNICIPALITY OF PASIG, TAGUIG, AND PARAŇAQUE, PROVINCE OF RIZAL,
    AND PASAY CITY”) were issued by the government.

    ISSUE:
    WON Proclamation No. 192 and 423 were valid in the absence of proof of ownership of
    the property by the government

    RULING:
    YES. These proclamations have the character of official assertions of ownership, and the
    presumption is that they have been issued by right of sovereignty and in the exercise of the
    State’s dominical authority. We take not only judicial notice thereof but accept the same as a
    valid asseveration of Regalian right over property.
