The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the disciplinary sanction against the Regional Administration for a procedural defect in the formation of its decision. The administration relied on a report from an investigator who had previously refused a timely diligence request made by the accused, which could have reduced the accused's liability. The court held that the final decision was vitiated because it failed to consider the potential impact of the unaddressed diligence on the degree of responsibility.
