ISSUE: W/N a petition for quo warranto lies against respondent? YES
HELD:
The claim that the instant action is one of mandamus, not quo warranto is
DEVOID of basis. While quo warranto and mandamus are often concurrent
remedies, however, there exists a clear distinction between the two.
Quo Warranto
The remedy to try the right to an
office or franchise and to oust the
holder from its enjoyment
Mandamus
Only lies to enforce legal duties, not
to try disputed titles
