Rejection of application for permission to file corporate papers appealable. — Appellee's rejection of appellants' application under Section 48-22-45 NMSA 1978 (now Section 58-1-57 NMSA 1978) was an order within the ambit of this section and appellants were aggrieved and directly affected by it, since the rejection precluded appellants from filing articles of incorporation with the corporation commission (now public regulation commission) and obtaining the certificate of authority under Section 48-22-49 (now Section 58-1-61 A) NMSA 1978 which certificate is required before a proposed state bank may perform any act other than perfect its organization. Therefore, the action of appellee in rejecting appellants' application was appealable. Holladay v. Upton, 1968-NMSC-044, 79 N.M. 1, 438 P.2d 885.
