STATEMENT OF FACTS

DISCUSSION
A. Disciplinary
In NBI vs. Najera, it was settled that while the rules of evidence
are not controlling in administrative bodies in the adjudication of
cases, the evidence presented before them must at least have a
modicum of admissibility for it to be given some probative value. In
this case the lone testimony of Mr. Demalasi is insufficient to sustain
the administrative charge.
