CARPIO, J.
To determine the credibility and probative weight of the testimony of a witness, such testimony must be considered in its entirety and not in truncated parts.[25] To determine which contradicting statements of a witness are to prevail as to the truth, the other evidence received must be considered.[26]

PER CURIAM
Misconduct is a transgression of some established and definite rule of action, a forbidden act, a dereliction from duty, unlawful behavior, willful in character, improper or wrong behavior. Qualified by the term "grave" or "gross," it means conduct that is "out of all measure; beyond allowance; flagrant; shameful; such conduct as is not to be excused."[25]

CHICO-NAZARIO, J.
Court personnel, from the lowliest employee to the clerk of court or any position lower than that of a judge or justice, are involved in the dispensation of justice, and parties seeking redress from the courts for grievances look upon them as part of the judiciary. They serve as sentinels of justice, and any act of impropriety on their part immeasurably affects the honor and dignity of the judiciary and the people's confidence in it. Thus, any conduct which tends to diminish the image of the judiciary cannot be countenanced.[19]

CARPIO MORALES, J.
Now, the quantum of proof required in an administrative proceeding is only substantial evidence or that amount of relevant evidence that a reasonable mind might accept as adequate to support a conclusion.[37] The standard of substantial evidence is satisfied when there is reasonable ground to believe that the person indicted was responsible for the alleged wrongdoing or misconduct.[38]
