About this document

Dacanay Jr. v. Asistio: Public Streets Case by Maria Analyn is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This case involves a dispute over whether public streets in Caloocan City could be licensed to private vendors to operate market stalls. The Supreme Court ruled that public streets are property of public dominion and outside of commerce, so they cannot be leased, licensed or alienated by the local government. As the disputed areas were public streets, the licenses and occupation by private respondents were null and void. The Court affirmed that public streets must be kept clear for public use.
