NATIONAL LAND TITLES AND DEEDS V. CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION

> EO 649 reorganized the LRC—a valid reorganization measure

> All positions in the LRC were deemed non-existent

> Abolition of a position doesn’t involve removal since removal implies that the post subsists and that one is merely separated therefrom

> After abolition, there is in law no occupant and no tenure to speak of

> It was ruled in this case that the respondent, not a member of the Bar, cannot be restituted to her former position
