This document is a Supreme Court of the Philippines ruling from 1955 regarding the deportation of Tan Tong, a Chinese national. The court ruled that the Deportation Board has jurisdiction to investigate charges of unlawful importation against Tan Tong, even without a prior conviction in court. The power to deport aliens is vested in the President, and the Deportation Board's role is to investigate charges and make recommendations. Section 2702 of the Administrative Code, which allows for deportation of aliens convicted of unlawful importation, does not limit the Deportation Board's powers or require a conviction before they can investigate charges. The court dismissed Tan Tong's appeal and upheld the Deportation Board's jurisdiction.
