| Nevertheless, despite the fact that Presidential Decree No. 605 subsists, the DENR Secretary must have missed our ruling in Datiles and Co. v. Sucaldito,[77] wherein we held that the prohibition in Presidential Decree No. 605 "pertains to the issuance of injunctions or restraining orders by courts against administrative acts in controversies involving facts or the exercise of discretion in technical cases, because to allow courts to judge these matters could disturb the smooth functioning of the administrative machinery. But on issues definitely outside of this dimension and involving questions of law, courts are not prevented by Presidential Decree No. 605 from exercising their power to restrain or prohibit administrative acts." | |||||
