Arce was helped in his ambitions to be re-elected by Herrera's deputy, Lieutenant General José Justo Milla Pineda . He occupied Comayagua with his troops on May 10, 1827 , had Herrera captured and convened a parliament with Juan Lindo as chairman. This parliament deposed Herrera on September 13, 1827 and elected Cleto Bendaña as Supremo Jefe . In the parliament convened by Milla, some departments of Honduras did not feel represented and equipped opposition troops against Bendaña. Troops organized by supporters of Herrera waited at the Nicaraguan-Honduran border to overthrow Cleto Bendaña. Troops from Milla invaded Nicaragua.
