The second, Miguel Francisco de Guerra y Arteaga, was a member of the Council of Castile and a Councilor of State during the reign of Philip V of Spain.

[1] In 1724 Pope Benedict XIII gave Philip V permission to build a collegiate church dedicated to the Holy Trinity in the Royal Palace of La Granja de San Ildefonso.

Philip V also obtained Domingo's appointment as Archbishop of Amida in partibus, which gave him greater status at court.

Instead he appointed José Francisco Magdaleno as governor of the diocese, responsible for day-to-day administration, who was elevated to Bishop of Teos in partibus.
