The Supreme Court quashed the lower court's judgment dismissing the plaintiff's claim for reinstatement due to procedural violations. The lower court based its factual findings solely on an unappealed criminal conviction without evaluating evidence presented in both the civil and criminal proceedings. The Supreme Court ruled that relying exclusively on the criminal verdict without a comprehensive review of all evidence violated the requirement for a holistic assessment of proof under the Code of Civil Procedure.
