What cannot be accomplished in an administrative case.

"At the outset, we note that in order to determine whether respondent is guilty of dishonesty, we will have to delve into the issue of whether the complainants are indeed related to the defendants in Civil Case No. A-95-22906 being half-brothers and half-sisters. We would also be tasked to make an assessment on the authenticity of the Certificate of Marriage which respondent submitted in the proceedings in Civil Case No. A-95-22906. Similarly, we will have to make a ruling on whether the Urgent Motion to Recall Writ of Execution of the Writ of Preliminary Injunction which respondent filed was indeed baseless and irrelevant to the proceedings in Civil Case No. A-95-22906. Clearly, these prerequisites cannot be  accomplished in this administrative case."
